Rough last minute for Jokic

Airmails a turnover to Kahwi, then bricks what coulda been a game tying 3.

Home court advantage to the Clippers

Man, when he's healthy, Kawhi is so damn good.

blackvodka · 04-22-2025, 12:15 AM

The Clippers & Nuggets series will be interesting. The Clips are tough to beat at home and if Kawai builds off of his game 2 momentum Denver will be in trouble.

The Pistons are a fun young team to watch, but everybody knows the Knicks aren't real contenders.

The Bucks and Lakers need wins in game 2. As far as Memphis goes lol.

*MVP chants de-intensify*

Obtuse forced 3 after a shot clock reset.
7 turnovers.
Critical missed free throws.

It'll get better, I'm sure.

Or perhaps not.

Fun Gai looked like the best player on the floor tonight. Strip Club Patron continues to do whatever's needed in a post-Kardashian redemption arc. A true survivor.

They laughed.

They scoffed.

Imagine being that dude simping for retainer-wearing Scarlett Jo back in junior high, only to see what she soon became after late puberty kicked in.

The stuff of Gooner Nostradamus lore.

Maybe Memphis shouldn’t of fired their coach..

Nomad · 04-22-2025, 07:15 PM

Damn. Lopez ganked my man on two dunk attempts. Get that step up.

Good news is the Pacers was on NBA TV and even blocked out in the home market. You can still get good odds on the next game. Don't pick up "clutch gene" Nembhard while his rarities still cheep.

EBCollectibles · 04-22-2025, 11:22 PM

L.A. is perfect for Luka. Plays with his daddy Lebron. He cries as much as Lebron. Sickening watching those two.

HeyRelaxGuy · 04-22-2025, 11:44 PM

Wolves crappy first quarter play cost them the game tonight.

Yeah, Luka cries on every play ... it's ridiculous.

blackvodka · 04-23-2025, 12:09 AM

LA and Minny both played poorly for the most part. Neither team would really scare me.

OKC won so easily. Williams is legit.

As crazy as it sounds I think the Bucks still have a slim chance. There was some home tonight and they did play better. Indy better not get too comfortable in that series.

Nomad · 04-23-2025, 12:40 AM

People are starting to finally ask about the Pacers. Like where did they come from?

What do you say about a team that is supposedly Haliburton and a lot of role players? How do you get into the fundamental, the Siakam, the Myles of it all, the Nesmith-Nembhard unit and how all systems run from that?

Whilst I love Luka's game.

He is the epitome of a soft Euro. He does get a bad whistle, but he needs to toughen up.

I would gladly see the back of him and LeBron early in these Playoffs.

He's great when he's locked in though.

Once again you have zero clue what you are talking about... the game was not blocked out in the home market

EBCollectibles · 04-23-2025, 07:28 AM

Then Lebron get touched in the face a bit and he acts like he is dying. 2 seconds later absolutely nothing is wrong. Called offensive foul on Randle on the play. Horrible call. No matter how Minnesota played last night they didn't have a chance. They could not let the 2 cry babies go down 2-0.

ninjabum87 · 04-23-2025, 09:29 AM

My "Pacers in six" prediction looking overly optimistic at this point with this dumpster fire Bucks roster lol. Pacers in four looking highly likely.

Pacers are much more well rounded. Imagine Giannis on the Pacers for instance. That team would be a legit contender.

You seem to be doing a lot of crying…

Nah... what would happen is it would start out fine, but Giannis would shift the gravity and demand the ball a lot. Players would leave, players would be fired. Giannis would want a certain coach. He would bring an overpaid and over the hill player from another team on board to fill a position (Nesmith would be let go for Beal.) The second apron would be breached. The team might sniff a championship his first year, but never again.

Giannis on OKC, Giannis on Golden State, Giannis on just about any of the rest of these playoff teams actually. I hope he asks to leave tbh. The world war one veteran roster, the Glenn Rivers specials. Burn it all down.

Nomad · 04-23-2025, 12:22 PM

Who would Golden State give up? Thunder? Would it be Dame's team or are they shopping him too to blow it up and avoid the apron?

Of course. I was trying to make the point that he can take an above average team with no Championship shot and make them an instant contender. The fact that he actually won a ring with Milwaukee is still wild.

Giannis on Golden State would be fun, but not sure how much shelf life GS has. Giannis on OKC would be just unfair.

Dame would be gone I imagine. Probably get some other old star to put butts in seats while they rebuild I bet.
