I love this game!
The road to the NBA Finals starts this Saturday and there are plenty of developing stories in this year’s playoffs. The seedings have now been determined after the action tonight and certain teams were ousted from the post-season, even after glorious attempts.
For one, the Oklahoma City Thunder and Russell Westbrook‘s triple doubles could not carry the team past the New Orleans Pelicans, who won the last spot in the Western Conference thanks to a tie-breaker. In the Eastern Conference, the Indiana Pacers were snubbed after their loss to the Memphis Grizzlies tonight, making way for the Brooklyn Nets to lock up the 8th seed.
