[NBA] East Playoffs, Round One

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Per Dave Pasch, the Chicago Bulls had the best record in the NBA after thirty-seven games, and they've been below .500 ever since. Ouch.

Even worse would have be re-signing him to that deal and watching the chaos of Buddy/Tyrese/Bogdan play out. Youth/cap destroying at it's finest.

Yeah the mistake was Vlade not getting a FRP at the trade deadline for him. I'm guessing just about every contender would have gladly dealt their FRP to get him as an "over the hump" piece.

He left Monte in the middle of a rock and a hard place. Bogi/Barnes/Buddy/Fox/Bagley/Holmes as a 100 mil core that hadn't sniffed the playoffs and more or less tapped out potential. Just couldn't do it.

And he actually did play it right, but the Bucks screwed the deal. So yeah.. not on Monte imo.

Breaking news: guy who sat out the entire season with an injury was actually injured.

Well there is injury and then there is soreness. Sure I'm commenting from a distance and part of me feels sorry for him but if he told me he likes basketball I wouldn't believe him.

 

[Tetsujin]

Sooooooooooooo Atlanta

perhaps he and Bagley would make very good acquaintances

What I saw wasn't inspiring so I wasn't surprised not to see him later.

Don't worry he will be playing for the national team in the off-season regardless.

Yeah, this was the expected bad Bogi performance incoming like clockwork.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Game 1, Bogdanovic plays like trash. @dude12: all the smoke.
Games 2-3, Bogdanovic plays well. @dude12: crickets.
Game 4, Bogdanovic plays like trash. @dude12: all the smoke.

Hey man, I respect the petty. Welcome to The List™, homie! #HateHard

Nic Claxton just erased Shaquille O'Neal from the record books. Congratulations?

Kyrie is such a bad defender.

 

[Tetsujin]

Tatum fouls out but we don't see it because Stan Van Gundy was too busy talking for us to see it.

 

[Tetsujin]

Good game from gritty role player vet guy Blake Griffin, who is probably going to melt into a pile of dust after the buzzer.

this Marcus Smart is fun to watch. Modern day Ron Ron without the craziness

Marcus once tried to fight a (racist) fan in the stands in college so maybe he's just RonRon?

sure at Oklahoma State he had his moments and early in his career but to me it seems as if he's toned down all the non sense

 

[kingsboi]

we now know that a Durant and Kyrie duo isn't good enough to get out of the first round. Is Ben Simmons really the one to put them over the top?

 

[Tetsujin]

Barnes and Holmes and a protected 2nd for KD.

I’m deadly accurate though. He’s a coach killer. He’s going to throw up some good games and come back with trash…..but it looks like McMillen opted not to play him much this last game because he knows.

Yeah I mean give RonRon more credit, it seems to me that both guys are exceptional defenders and know when is a serious win-now time to curb their enthusiasm.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Not even Doc Rivers has ever blown a 3-0 lead... Challenge accepted?

He's halfway there!

Coach killer? What coach did he kill? Luke Walton? Lloyd Pierce? You want me to believe that those guys would have kept their jobs, were it not for the disruptive influence of Bogdan Bogdanovic?
