NBA Playoffs, Round Two

[SLAB]

I’m only half paying attention, but it seems every single time I look up Gobert is getting killed on switches.

Mitchell with the patented Harden move grabbing the defenders arm and going up for the shot. NBA please do something here

3 time defensive player of the year

Never trust a basketball player from an LA team named Luke

George dribbling the ball for 23 seconds and then decides to pass

 

[Tetsujin]

Swipa woulda made that

*ducks*

 

[kingsboi]

a Pacers George appearance and a OKC Jackson appearance means good things for the Clipps

Philly could use someone like Jimmy Butler.

They did play better playoff basketball when Jimmy was there, even if they didn’t all get along so well. If not for super Kawhi, that team may have won something.

That 4/14 from the FT line was very conducive to winning.

It’s called “karma”. Courtesy of KF’s favorite hero, Sam Hinkie.

FT issues never kept Shaq from winning titles. While he seemed to make them against our KINGS, he had plenty of playoff games where that didn’t happen so much. But when the player and team is good enough, that $#!t doesn’t seem to matter so much. They win games other ways.

Simmons just happens to be on a team where there’s too many other flaws to overcome. And bad karma

Rightfully so.

Gotta give some credit to PG13 on that game. He stepped up and his role guys are busting their humps to make it work.

Jazz shooting 72% for the quarter still only lead the Clippers led by the big three of Paul George/Marcus Morris/Reggie Jackson by 1.

I’ve never particularly liked the Clips, but I give them a lot of props for coming back from 0-2. And for tonight’s win on the road minus Kawhi. Many other teams would have folded.

Paul George has had many up and down moments in recent years, but tonight was a huge up moment. He stepped up when needed most. And he got a lot of help from Jackson and Morris.

Morris in particular has stepped up the past two games.

You beat me to the punch.

That’s what we all expect a player like PG to do when it matters most. Tonight, he surely did.

But they still need one more.

Wow.

Well, there’s an answer to how any team can lose a 26 point lead and a double digit lead with only a few minutes to go.

Another answer would be “trust the curse” haha

Y’all owe Trae Young an apology

 

[KingsFanSince85]

Y’all owe Trae Young an apology

For what? He had nothing to do with Philly imploding last night. He also hasn’t shot the ball particularly well the past couple games. And still doesn’t play much defense.

What exactly would anybody be apologizing for?

The guy is a glorified chucker. Nothing more. Always has been, always will be.

You Trae Young fan boys are way too much.

Sigh.

You apologize to Kawhi yet?

 

[dude12]

If anything, Lou Williams was the one who jump started the comeback…….of course, the main reason was the 76ers imploding. With Bogi and Huerter playing god-awful basketball, the ATL bench got them back in it.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

do you think it's a valid point?

... I guess?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

In a team sport, I didn’t realize there was anything important to be won other than an NBA Championship.

Oh wait, there isn’t.

Well, First of All™, he's won an Olympic gold medal, and a FIBA World Championship, so it's a pretty USA-centric point of view to say that there isn't anything more important than an NBA championship. And, second of all, don't move the goalposts, now: you said that a guy who's been MVP of the league hasn't won "anything."

EDIT - Also, they haven't played in New Jersey in, like, eight years. Might be time to update your spreadsheet.

 

[kingsboi]

... I guess?

undecided it is

 

[dude12]

Can the Kings find someone like PJ Tucker please?

 

[SLAB]

The Nets have the Bucks right where they want them.

 

[dude12]

If the Bucks lose this game, I think Mike Bud is fired.

 

[SLAB]

Isn’t it just shocking that when Giannis guards KD things are a little less automatic?

 

[SLAB]

If the Bucks lose this game, I think Mike Bud is fired.

Series. I say he’s gone if they lost Game 7 (assuming we get there)

 

[SLAB]

Didn’t realize Old JJ was a Buck until right now.

Glorified chucker lol comical.

Same thing was said when he was putting up 29/9 on a bad team now he’s puts up 25/9 on a team that’s possible headed to the conference finals smh. Face the facts the kids an elite talent and runner of an offense he’s gonna be one of the best guards for the next decade

If he’s a chucker than what’s fox cause fox will never come close to what Young is right now as a player. And to answer your question it’s to apologize for calling him overrated and swearing Fox is the better player
