NBA Playoffs, Round One

[kingsboi]

need Donovan to come back soon, Jazz are unwatchable when he isn't playing

 

[sactowndog]

Too funny. If Memphis holds on the only lower seed that won’t have won game 1 is the Fakers.

 

[steelevt]

I like me some Dillon Brooks. He is one of those pesky annoying players that's constantly in your air space and handsy. He's really improved his offensive game too, no way I thought he would be this serviceable for Memphis

remember that trade that fell through when the suns tried to trade for dillon brooks and memphis tried to slip them marshon brooks lol. yeah memphis knew which brooks was a keeper

 

[kingsboi]

Bucks making sure this game is over in the first quarter at this rate

 

[Kingz19]

Guess I spoke too soon about Miami possibly eliminating the Bucks again lol

 

[Kingz19]

Bucks might drop a 50 burger in the first quarter

 

[SLAB]

A Bjelica sighting.

 

[SLAB]

WTF these Nugget uniforms are awful.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Is Campazzo the dellavedova of this years playoffs?

 

[SLAB]

Dame’s so fun when he gets hot.

 

[dude12]

Dame is hoooooooot.....red hoooooooot

 

[kingsboi]

Dame vs Nikola is a fun one

 

[SLAB]

Listening to Shaq mumble his way through his analysis drives me nuts. Do people actually like listening to this guy?

I like when he falls down but that's about it.

Luka going supernova in the playoffs while his “second star” is out here getting caught in the club between games.

Also Lebron is one of the greatest athletes of all time regardless of sport and Zinger'a crowning career achievement was shredding his knee, getting traded for multiple first round picks, and convincing the Mavs to sign him to a max extension without even playing a second of basketball.

Rules should be the same no matter who the player happens to be.

One dude went to a "party", the other one went to a club.

The party apparently required a negative PCR/vax proof. The club is the club.

Players haven't been allowed to go just about anywhere in public. Why should LeBron be different? In the bubble, Holmes was forced to isolate for 10 days for simply crossing a line to get food. LeBron went somewhere no other player would've been allowed to go. He then didn't tell anyone to make sure he got to play in the play-in game against GS. The league basically shrugged their shoulders. If that had been a player like Wiggins, I'll bet that their response would've been much different.
If the rules don't apply to everyone, then why bother having rules?

I thought the league relaxed the rules a couple weeks back. I mean, if we're saying that Lebron needs to get the same punishment as Zaps I agree but that punishment is a 50000 dollar fine so I'm not sure what that has to do with him missing the play-in.

and you also have this incident not long ago

Bron nose to nose with Caldwell Pope telling him to shoot it

 

[steelevt]

Suns coming back from behind only to come up short. Reminds me of watching a kings game.

 

[Kingz19]

The Athletic is going to have a lot of good content this summer if a healthy Clippers are a first round exit

I hope the Mavs sweep them. Will Paul George no longer be considered a star if happens?

 

[kingsboi]

for a team with multiple capable defenders, Clippers defense looks awful

 

[SLAB]

We’re going to watch this man in the playoffs for the next decade-plus. Lmao

 

[Tetsujin]

Clips playing defense like Luke Walton slipped them some notes after the regular season, which is ironic because the Mavs are the one team Luke has managed to beat time and time again against improbable odds.

it may be time for the Clippers and staff to watch the Kings games vs the Mavs to find the winning formula
