NBA Playoffs, Conference Finals

[PurpleHaze]

How the hell Paul George not know how much times left on th e clock?

Palmdale H.S. California education where supposedly got a diploma. Then at Fresno State where left for NBA after sophomore season only to later have number retired, setting no Bulldog records, majoring in basketball with mediocre stats on very average team.

Refs reffing crunch time like the Suns are the team from LA lol

Yeah right that Booker 6th foul was clearly a Jackson foul first. Not to mention Beverly and the idiot Morris have been beating up Suns players without consequence but if the Suns do it then their called for the foul.

I mean, you’re not exactly an unbiased observer in this discussion lol

And I’m sure the non-replay on the side-out and the “foul” into the non-travel on CP3 were great calls!

The refs just didn’t want people to complain about all the replays like they did for game 2 lol.

On the SC broadcast after the game they said 0-12 on go ahead shots in the 4th quarter. maybe that included 2 to close the 3rd? Dunno, pretty insane either way.

Man I wanted a close wcf. I guess “suns in five!” still kinda works.

Suns in five? GOAT Ty “Bill Belichick” Lue has the Suns right where he wants ‘em!

The refs just didn’t want people to complain about all the replays likely did for game 2 lol.

True to his nature, Van Gundy was complaining that they should have reviewed the play after having complained to the opposite point the game before.

That dude is so awful to listen to.

But, yes, I agree that the decision not to review was likely influenced by the previous game.

NBA officiating is pretty poor on average but I’ve felt the officiating during this postseason has been even worse.

To be fair to PG, I don’t think he has ever returned to the player he was prior to that horrific injury. He’s made a phenomenal recovery on the whole, but he’s not where he was and where he was going.

Still a good player, just not a great one. IMO he was on the path to being great pre-injury.

And he's the good Van Gundy.

Ah yes. The Milwaukee Mavs. Everyone’s favorite team.

Feels like teams were so happy they didn’t need to wear sleeves anymore that they didn’t bother designing good jerseys

That’s why I didn’t hate ours. They weren’t great or anything, but at least they made sense.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

So is the thing that they were all saying "great call" just now, where Middleton jumped and was on his way down and Trey just dove right into him for 3 free throws, is that changing under the new rules?

Middleton on fire

Trae lives by the 30 footer, dies by the 30 footer

 

[SLAB]

Middleton going nuts.

Sacramento Bogdan in the house.

… again

Bogi helping the Bucks win in the postseason!

 

[Livinthedream]

Gotta admire Bogi for taking so many shots even though nothing going in. Well, I don't know if admire is the right term.

I feel like they owe us DDV for this.

Bogi was in warm-up mode for international competition in the Summer.

 

[KingsFanSince85]

Trae Young‘s most efficient offensive game so far yet ATL lost.

The supporting cast is how they won GM1 in the final few minutes. But they were absent last night.

Bogie downright killed them.

I don’t dislike Trae Young so much, just the way he chooses to play.

He’ll likely never be a good defensive player, but he could be a really great offensive player if he became a more selective shooter. Those quick trigger 27-30 footers are his achilles heel.

He’s tough to stop on the PnR, Gallinari had his offensive game going and I just don’t think they take advantage of Huerter enough but instead he took some bad shots from deep and Bogi just sucking killed them.

Trae would be better off running PnR every play a la Stockton and Malone. His floater is deadly.

Good call out on Gallinari. He’s played well so far.

In the end, I still feel ATL goes as far as their supporting cast takes them. They bailed the team out in GM1 but were largely no-shows the past 2 games.

On the flip side, Giannis and Middleton are performing how you’d expect them too.

Morris with the obvious trip attempt after Ayton bowls him over. Suprised there wasn’t a reaction.
