[NBA] West Playoffs, Round Two

[Tetsujin]

The T-Wolves came out of the gates like they thought they had this series wrapped up.
Also they’re playing nothing but drop coverage all of a sudden for some reason?

 

[Tetsujin]

Also this Mark Jones/Tim Legler broadcast team should probably be the main ESPN broadcast crew if they aren’t going to let the Mark/Doris team be a thing anymore for some reason.

GD shameful.....pathetic.....they're not winning tonight - jumped the gun

 

[kingdivac]

This looks almost rigged.....

 

[Tetsujin]

Does anyone have the number of Mike Malone’s hair transplant guy because that combover is looking this this series?

 

[kingdivac]

First set you could tell the Wolves were complacent - disgraceful

 

[kingdivac]

Keep fouling Gobert with those FTs

 

[kingdivac]

Refs are calling all the minutiae

 

[kingdivac]

What are the odds the T-Wolves take the lead at any point remaining in this game? Thinking 1 in 9

 

[kingdivac]

Get lost McGlaughlin, you suck

 

[kingsboi]

three games and three blowouts, didn't see this coming so far -_-

The Wolves vs Nuggets is a chess game. The most interesting series by far. I give Malone a lot of credit for last night's performance. To think that Sac gave up on him. The Nuggets came out passing the ball, getting the ball in the paint and then kicking it to the perimeter. That created spacing. The Nuggets played with a lot of confidence, which is not an easy feat after getting whomped twice at home.

 

[kingdivac]

Thunder are getting beat on rebounding this game 3.

 

[kingdivac]

Thunder with some bad turnovers- too many too. They could be in control if not for those

 

[kingdivac]

Alexander flubbing and giving the Mavs another look they converted - dunce cap play of the game

 

[kingdivac]

Thunder in danger of losing the game, lousy defense

 

[kingdivac]

Hubie Brown claims Dort is giving away body strength to Doncic - please go home old man

 

[Tetsujin]

If that game wasn’t an argument for why the Thunder need to package their assets and splurge for a second star to pair with Shaq, I dunno what is

People already crowned the Thunder and I heard others laugh about how they won't have issues when all their FRP come up on extensions but we've seen this movie before. Since it is the same GM and the league didn't force the Thunder to fire Presti even though he OG'd the process, I do expect things to work out better than it did for the OKC team a decade ago or Philly. But the NBA is a funny league.

Didn't OKC voters reject an arena deal, so things could get really interesting.

 

[kingdivac]

Better defense tonight than Friday....still not as good as Tuesday, but better

 

[kingdivac]

Wolves now rushing their offense and not moving on offense

 

[kingdivac]

Wolves offense has been in a nose-dive since late 1st quarter, and its now permeated to their defense. Game starting to look just like game 3

 

[Tetsujin]

Wolves spiraling so bad they’re making Justin Holiday look like a solid NBA player

 

[kingdivac]

Wolves are fouling like they have 10 fouls apiece

 

[Tetsujin]

People got a little too enthusiastic about calling Ant the next Michael Jordan and the rest of the Wolves turned into the 2003 Washington Wizards

 

[kingdivac]

Here we go- signs of the defense

He's not MIchael Jordan, really nobody will be, but is the best looking young player right now.

 

[Tetsujin]

Well that could've gone better for the Wolves lol

 

[Kingz19]

holy crap

Worst close to a half I’ve ever seen and that’s coming from a Kings fan

Thing about watching the postseason is that you come to realize that the Kings aren't the only team in the league capable of randomly looking like the Washington Generals.
