the Kings have like four different guys that can help there.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Heartwarming to see Chris Webber and Jalen Rose in Detroit showing each other love.

 

[Tetsujin]

Sooo what happens if the Knicks superteam ends up losing in the first round?

Big Sawfty ain't never beating the allegations, that's what's going to happen. Neither will Brunson, for that matter.

Exit Thibs, enter Durant would be my guess

 

[Tetsujin]

Imagine getting cooked by Dennis Schroeder, a dude who’s been passed around by every single GM like a bong at a frat party.

 

[Tetsujin]

How the hell is that a jumpball?!

 

[Tetsujin]

all the Piston vets failing them greatly down the stretch lol

 

[Tetsujin]

That’s gonna be in the L2M tomorrow lol

 

[Angelo127]

What what an idiot whoever sounded that buzzer

 

[Tetsujin]

lol what a terrible pass haha

 

[kingsboi]

been a fun series between the Knicks and Pistons, refs for the most part letting them get physical and scrap

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Stewart is looking around like, "If I borrow one of my teammates' uniforms to go out there and wreck Karl Towns, I wonder would anyone notice?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Been busy all morning/afternoon helping my parents clean out their basement; is that Matt Devlin calling the Cavs/Heat game?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Ty Jerome may be the most "That's not what I expected, at all!" player in the NBA.

 

[Tetsujin]

not sure where the Heat really go from here because they should probably “blow it up” but their most desirable pieces are probably the pieces that they want to keep the most.
(Also Davion is probably playing himself into a nice contract this summer despite the Heat looking like ass)

Davion was definitely spamming that hesi to get some layups in this series, haha. Can't blame him, the Kings development system just about ruined him too. He has to find a way to survive.

Heat absolutely must start their rebuilding process, the sooner, the better for that franchise. They can complete their rebuild in a timely manner too because the continuity and standards they have cohesively in the front office.

Also, someone will be overpaying Jerome

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

This Knicks/Pistons series has been fun to watch! The quality of basketball hasn't been as good as Nuggets/Clippers IMO, but it's very fun.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Towns is just out there as a decoy right now; not even calling for it.

Props to Jalen Brunson for playing through an ankle injury, but IMO it's a damning indictment on Towns that he wasn't able to step up when Brunson got hurt, and basically forced Jalen to have to come back.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Tim Legler shouting out his former teammate Ben Wallace makes me wonder if we're ever going to see another pure defender make the Hall of Fame again?

 

[Tetsujin]

Jalen Duren showing that he’s really not that good at defense after all on the biggest stage lol

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Figures that Sawfty would score eight points as soon as I hit 'send,' just to make me look dumb.

 

[Tetsujin]

Tim Legler shouting out his former teammate Ben Wallace makes me wonder if we're ever going to see another pure defender make the Hall of Fame again?

Gobert roughly on pace for a hall of fame career but he’s less a pure defender and more just a guy who’s ass on offense.

 

[Tetsujin]

nothing the Pistons enjoy more than randomly committing a turnover during the most important possession of the game.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

JB Bickerstaff burning that challenge five minutes into the first quarter is looking real bad right about now.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

nothing the Pistons enjoy more than randomly committing a turnover during the most important possession of the game.

And they don't have Fox on the other team to bail them out today.

 

[Tetsujin]

*the pistons could really use a DeMar DeRozan for these situations*

 

[Tetsujin]

lol what a mess of a possession

congrats to the Pistons on “almost” winning three postseason games in a row
