NBA Thread: The Offs - Round 1 (Hamass Forced Out of LA)

Zach Lowe's preview of the game said that it was going to be interesting to see if Chicago, which leads the league in mid range baskets, would continue to settle for those against a team that will let them get to the rim at will and get wide open 3s whenever they want to.

 

It's absolutely wild that MPJ seems to be the smart one in his family

 

Yeah I don't know if Atlanta's defenders will be close enough to DeRozan to foul him a bunch, outside of Trae falling down to draw charges

 

MPJ is just as dumb, he just has more to lose.

 

ESPN pre-game isn't a serious basketball program

 

mpj would never pop champagne like this because it looks way too much like shooting a load

 

league should have done the right thing and had bulls-hawks tip at 330 am est

 

That’s why Embiid pisses so many ppl off. That such a ridiculous foul to draw

 

so if the SIxers will be able to look at the refs and get them to blow a whistle all game I might as well watch Xmen97

 

Been such a bizarrely officiated game

 

welp

 

Was that even a foul, seemed all self inflicted

 

The guy landing on his leg is self inflicted?

 

That’s not what happened

 

If you aren't taking the entire season off to go to hangout instead of playing basketball you aren't playing tonight and that doesn't happen so whatever.

 

I still need to watch this

 

lol okay calm down

 

Doesn't compare to last week's ep

 

I'm saving latest episode for after the game so I can have something to make me feel good after Miami does the thing.

 

Panthers start Sunday.

 

Can someone explain this post because it’s hurting my brain trying to understand it

 

four steals for jimmy halfway through the second quarter is kinda crazy

 

This is an ugly game

 

Jimmy has been taking games off all season for nonsense reasons then immediately seen around town doing something silly.

the point of the post was to say without him taking games off, Jimmy likely gets hurt at some point and misses tonight with a real injury.

 

I love Lowry being super motivated and "playing with a chip on his shoulder" in these games against the Heat as if he wasn't stealing money for two years. Lol at him being mad at the Heat for trading him.

 

Lowry is beyond shameless

 

cavs look even more foolish deliberately ducking these teams

 

Heat about to do their usual blow a huge second half lead thing. Hopefully just one more game of this shit so I don't have to watch most of these losers play anymore

 

Jimmy is cooked

 

Embid looks exhausted

 

Guys are getting mauled and not calling a thing

 

but they're allowing it on both sides which is fine if they are going to do that

 

Love giving teams a free point on the stupidest of technicalities

dumbest league on the planet

 

le big dic nic

 

Batum is 481 years old

 

Keep playing that zone Spotard

 

Lol’d at this

 

embiid with the crotch chop

 

Herro is so bad

 

Batum vs Jacques for a spot in the playoffs - just the way everyone wanted

 

Heat Culture is a rough watch

 

every possession that doesnt end with a batum shot is a catastrophic failure

 

assumed Australia’s league was bigger bc saw a few stories a while back in on it getting more investment. a college star accepting being a pro in Spain if NBA isn’t realistic seems like a great time. China may have more money but feels like they would get home sick quicker there

 

A dude I knew at UO played in the Czech Republic. Said it was dope overall but more often than not they didn't get paid on time
