Some Western Conference Teams have had some serious setback; injuries once again have derailed some promising Teams of exploring their full potential, The L.A. Clippers suffered a lost that cost them the first round, while The Defending Champs The Golden State Warriors took a hit with Stephen Curry but were still focus enough to send The Houston Rockets packing early.

With Curry out for now Golden State is vulnerable but not out yet; judging by their first game onslaught which puts them up 1-0 in the series over The Trail Blazers, it will be up to Portland to figure it out quick and take advantage or be slayed.

The San Antonio Spurs will duke it out with the Young Gunners of Oklahoma City and has I write this write up The Spurs or up 1-0 over The Thunders and their first game was undeniably an exclamation mark type Game. REAL TALK! I’m looking forward to seeing how these series plays out! Tune In and witness the outcome.

2015 NBA Finals Champs

It was written! It took The Golden State Warriors 83 Games from the start of the season to Game 6 of the NBA Finals 2015. 40 years in the making and today we celebrate Golden State’s first NBA Championship. This scripted journey was well crafted from start to finish. The No 1 Team in the league throughout the entire season. The rookie coach Steve Kerr guiding this Bay Area team straight into the Records Books with this Historic NBA Season.

These series were a testimony of just how bad The Warriors wanted it that much more from The Cleveland Cavaliers. Don’t get it twisted, I know that “King James” came to play judging by his insane NBA Finals average 36.6 points, 12.4 rebounds and 8.4 assists per Game. Dude was a machine on that court but when you are facing the No. 1 Defensive Team in the league with a depleted Cavaliers supporting cast, they were bound to run straight into a wall and Game 6 was just the case. The Cavs had no answer to The Warriors smart play down the stretch; hence this is why we stand here today congratulating Golden State for reaching their goal of becoming This Year 2015 NBA Finals Champions.

Until then The Larry O’Bryan Trophy will once again be vacationing in the West for the time being. REAL TALK!

NBA FINALS 2015

The two teams who will be representing their respective Coasts for the 2015 NBA Finals matchup has been set. WESTSIDE’s No 1 Seed throughout the entire season The Golden State Warriors stayed true to their task at hand and are now 4 Games away for their first title since 1975.

Their roadblock is the EASTSIDE’s No 2 seed The Cleveland Cavaliers who last appeared in The NBA Finals loss in 2007. This NBA Finals matchup might just be one of the most electrifying one we’ve had in years. On one side (The WESTSIDE) we have the newly crowned NBA MVP in Stephen Curry leading The Golden State Warriors well-balanced offensive and defensive team straight into the History Books with the type of season and post play they’ve enjoyed to date.

On the other side (THE EASTSIDE) we have “KING” James, Mr. 4 times MVP representative vying to put an end to this “historic” season The Warriors have enjoyed this far. Lebron and The Cleveland Cavaliers plan on rewriting the History Books by rewriting the wrong that was made when Lebron left the team back in 2010. This battle tested Cleveland team might just have the “JUICE” to stunt on them Warriors but truth be told Golden State aint noting to play with. REAL TALK!

All eyes will undeniably be on Stephen Curry and Lebron James but personally I think it will come down to the supporting players of either team to step it up and create a cause and effect that will shift toward the team that wants it the most. The “HYPE” built up for this year Finals is “MUST SEE TV”.

The question floating around is who will write their names in the History Books and walk away with the elusive O’Bryan Trophy for the year 2015 NBA Finals. Tune In for Game 1, Thursday night June 4, 2015.

The NBA’s Cinderella Team The Atlanta Hawks has kept a firm and convincing grip all season and have not disappointed in doing so.

Now the question remains have The Hawks met their match in the 2nd seeded Cleveland Cavaliers? Lebron has The Cavs thinking they’re the Team who will be representing the EAST in this year NBA Finals. With a hungry Lebron James leading a starving Cavs Team the pressure now shifts onto Atlanta to complete yet another trial and prove to The Cavs why they were the No. 1 seed on the EASTSIDE. REAL TALK! Tune in Wednesday night May 20, 2015.

The WESTSIDE Playoff series have been nothing short of entertainment at its best. REAL TALK! The No. 1 seeded Team in the NBA throughout the entire season has been The Golden State Warriors. This Run and Gun Team can shoot you down offensively and break you down defensively. They ball on a different level from their opponents and judging by the play of this years newly crowned NBA’s MVP Stephen Curry this series vs the 2nd seeded Houston Rockets will definitely be a “LIVE ONE” to keep a close eye on considering James Harden being the runner up to Curry’s MVP trophy.

That alone is motivation for Harden and The Rockets to step their game up, especially after winning a hard earned series from The Clippers. With the momentum still running high for Houston, we can definitely anticipate a fast and up-tempo thrilling Western Conference Finals. REAL TALK! Tune In Tuesday night May 19, 2015.

The NBA—Who’s On Top?

We are officially passed the midpoint mark for the season with over 42 games played and at everyone’s surprise The EAST is experiencing a serious power struggle with some new and exiting faces running the show in a convincing manner. REAL TALK!

As I write this, the No. 1 spot belongs to The Atlanta Hawks (38-8). A team that no one anticipated to be good enough to run the show has been defying all odds and stating claim to that No 1 spot by bringing it each and every night to any team EAST/WEST who wants to tangle with them.

Not far behind we got our Team from up North The Toronto Raptors and the Washington Wizards who are still vying for that No. 1 Spot. Now who would have thought that these three teams would have been caught up in this scenario at this point in the season?

Now when it comes to the WESTSIDE. The shootout is still on and poppin over there. REAL TALK! I have to tip my “B” hat to them Boyz in Golden State for their play so far. They have kept that No. 1 Spot from the “JUMP”. And not just in the West but in the League PERIOD! (Percent wise) They are really trying to show all the naysayers that this (36-7) Team Record that they are running with in the WEST is as real as it gets.

Now I’ve said this before, in the West you can’t count any of the 8 seeded teams vying for a playoff spot out cause any one of them teams can catch a good steady run and snatch that No. 1 Spot at anytime. Injuries have stunted quite a few teams early but the second half of the season is where you either keep up to move up or bow down and step out the way. REAL TALK!

Keep Tuning in to see and appreciate the outcome of this season’s second half.

The NBA-Who’s On Top?

With only a quarter of the regular season down, one can’t front on the surprising rise of our own Canadian Team, The Toronto Raptors. (including me) This team from Up North is still flying high off last years NBA Season and leading the EAST right out the gate with a record of 16-6.

Good enough for the No. 1 seed in the EAST for now. The Eastern Conference has a whole is already doing better than last year around this time of the year. As I’m writing this, five Teams are already sitting above the 500 PCT mark. Now that’s definitely an improvement worth feeling positive about. REAL TALK!

With that being said the WESTSIDE still has a convincing hold over which side has the strongest coast. Leading the Western Conference this time around is the hot shooting Golden State Warriors with a league leading record of 19-2.

Holding on to that No. 1 seed will not be a cakewalk considering the Western Conference The Eastern Conferencealready has 10 Teams above 500 PCT. The Challenge presents itself to both Teams representing their respective coast to see if The Toronto Raptors or The Golden State Warriors is truly contender worthy. Only time will tell cause we still have lots of Ball to be played. Keep tuning In!!
