NBA Thread: The Offs - Round 1

His shoes are pretty cool

 

Just an absolutely stunning collapse. I know we’re young but Jesus Christ this is embarrassing

 

I play pickup once a week in an invite only run. Really nice to have it because I used to go to 24 hr fitness/LA fitness/etc but it’s a crapshoot how many games you get in and the type of players playing and if it’s going to be a good run

 

They want to avoid Miami wherever they end up

 

Why would anyone want to avoid Miami right now. Jimmy doesn’t seem like the Jimmy from the last few years that could turn it on. I’m used to him coasting through out the season before but he would still have a game here and there to remind you what he could do by making impact plays on offense and defense. He hasn’t been able to have any of those type of games this season.

 

Big day tomorrow

 

Thunder Up.

 

Finally getting Isaac starting but he is still our Jan 6th man

 

would be interesting to see phoenixs approach if denver decides to sit all their guys

would think they would trust themselves to get 1 of 2 play-in opportunities rather than be gung-ho to get denver round 1 in the 3-6

 

Paolo stepping up with 17/8/4 in the first half. Orlando ends on a 19-3 run. Both teams are shooting like dogshit from 3 and Pat Bev is a douche.

Playoff basketball.

 

we have to lead the league in fouling three point shooters

 

5 seed here we come

 

cavs deciding to be cool with the 4 seed is perplexing

 

Crazy how Two-Way Trae comes back and the defense is suddenly historically bad again

 

gonna look sharp in the blue, black, and silver next year

 

feel like the play-in should be revokable if teams cant even bother to make it to .500

no need to waste everyones time with this hawks-bulls nonsense

 

Thanasis Antetokounmpo just missed a wide open dunk and the Magic bench absolutely lost it

 

Shouldn’t the bulls just lay down in OT?

 

if they didnt punt the game before theres no reason for them to do it now

 

wolves couldnt be bothered to show up, so denver to the 2 seed it is

 

I think the Thunder really wants the 1 seed guys

 

Hot take

 

after cavs threw away a top 3 seed and the wolves turned it over 19 times in a half with the 2 seed on the line its refreshing to see a team handling their business in a professional manner

 

The Pels radio crew is having a hell of a time digesting what the Lakers are doing to them in the paint. Love a good homer booth.

 

It helps when they are playing our B team with Luka and Kyrie sitting

 

Ya man, we know. But you are the one who brought up the ass whooping

 

Thank you for your service

 

See you in round 2

 

Suns Wolves getting chippy when, as things stands, that would be the 3/6 matchup is fun. Let’s have some bad blood early to decide who gets waxed by Denver in round 2

 

hideous Zion game thus far

 

Some real stinkers in this window

 

Chet playing all 82 games is pretty cool.

 

A record that not even Wemby can break

 

The story developed into an easy suns win and a big stinker from Ant

 

wolves just want that no one believes in us energy after everyone picks the suns to win in round 1
