The NBA postseason officially kicked off on Saturday, and the games did not disappoint
The NBA playoffs kicked off on Saturday with the Warriors dusting the Spurs, and from there things actually got interesting in the other three games with the Raptors, Sixers and Pelicans all taking 1-0 leads in their respective series. Here is one observation from each matchup, along with the game scores and a recap of our live updates from the day's action.
Warriors flip the switch
So much for worrying about Golden State as they limped down the stretch. Against the Spurs in Game 1, the Warriors were engaged on both ends from the jump, and they resisted the temptation to play solely through Kevin Durant, as they have too often done in Stephen Curry's absence. Instead, it was back to the crisp ball and player movement and offensive balance that has come to define this dominant three-year Warriors run.
Remember back in December when Dez Bryant said he wouldn't accept a pay cut to remain with the Cowboys? Yeah, about that: It turns out, Bryant reconsidered his position.
On Friday, Bryant told NFL Network's Jane Slater that he would've taken a pay cut if the Cowboys had asked. The only problem? They never asked before they abruptly cut him on Friday.
"Yeah, if it was offered," Bryant said about taking a pay cut, per NFL.com. "The only question I was going to have for that was: Even if I did take a pay cut, am I going to be able to come in to work and be happy? Will I be able to enjoy it? Because I already got a feeling that this person don't like me, this person don't like me."
Surprise! New material from the Deepspace5 crew is always cause for excitement. The prolific collective only drops new music every few years and this Beat Rabbi produced single is their latest and greatest.
After releasing “Sisi Sophia” in February, S.O. has teamed up again with GP to bring you his latest song “PREACH.”
When asked about the theme of PREACH: “Everybody is preaching. Everybody is proclaiming something whether it’s true or a lie. Now isn’t the time to shy away from preaching and speaking what is true and what the Bible speaks on - the Gospel, who I belong to, and even everyday practical things like money and sharing wealth. PREACH is layered, man -- it’s not just another random turn up tune.”

The 2018 NBA playoffs got off to a rousing start this past weekend and the sneaker game was certainly on point.

Jam The Hype Jam the Hype
Reach Records has announced big news.
Reach Records artist Andy Mineo’s single titled “You Can’t Stop Me” has been officially certified Gold by the RIAA. The song recently moved the equivalent of more than 500,000 copies, which includes over 51 million streams to date.
For the fourth straight season since LeBron James returned, the Cleveland Cavaliers have clinched a spot in the NBA playoffs.
This year is different, however. There's no more Kyrie Irving to put up 25 points per night and take pressure off James by throwing the team onto his back at will.
