Luol with the hot hand early for Miami. He has 12 of Miami's 21 with 3+ to play in the first.

I haven't watched Charlotte play many times this year but their buzz city uniforms are only slightly better than the proposed unis for the New Jersey swamp dragons.
Yes indeed, and how does that compare to all those paper class boys from the dump on the hump. Since they have the most guys in the playoffs surely they are running away with the stats and having major impacts on their teams chances to win right? I see Marvin Williams had a magnificent 12 points today! woot woot! How are all the other paperclass boys doing so far?
Mason Plumlee has 19 boards and 9 assists and it's just the 3rd quarter. This is against DeAndre Jordan.
Interesting way to get a double-double if he gets there.
Mase finished with 6/21/9. Third guy to put up 21 boards and 9 assists in a playoff game since 1984...Barkley and KG being the others.
JJ on the other hand had a rough night (2 of 10 shooting).
"He became the first player with 19 or more rebounds and eight or more assists in a playoff game since LeBron James in 2010. He's also the first Blazer center with eight-plus assists in a postseason game since Arvydas Sabonis in 1999 against Phoenix.
Lillard called him a monster.
''With the attention that me and CJ get, we've got to trust him in the middle to score the ball and make the right play,'' Lillard said. ''Tonight he played close to a perfect game.''
Plumlee was brought to the podium to take questions from the media for the first time in his career.
''Good thing I wore a tie,'' he said."
Mason with the dunk of the playoffs so far, I think:

The in-game announcers said that Doc was "more worried about JJ's heal than all the other injuries on his team combined" or something to that effect. I think that was more of a comment on JJ's value to the team rather than the severity of the injury as he returned to the game after that comment. But its likely a comment on both as apparently heals can nag...
So the Spurs and Cavs move on, as expected.
Steph Curry goes down with another injury, this time it's his knee. Hopefully nothing serious and he'll be good to go for the next round.
Pacers/Raptors are knotted up at two games each and Toronto has to be feeling really nervous about game 5.
Somehow (Brad Stevens) the Celtics find a way to even the series with the Hawks.
Three games scheduled for tonight, hopefully at least two of them will be close!

It looked like a painful muscle pull to me. Terrible when a foot slides out like that.
