Not sure why you won't admit that Knicks have a good team, but sure. Rooting for the Sixers tho-- while I dislike both teams, I might dislike them less. Although Embiid is playing a little scared, I think the best version of him is the one that plays near the perimeter and prioritizes making the open pass over getting foul calls. When he played like this in 2019 playoffs, they looked really good, but Kawhi. Sixers still have a good shot at winning a six/seven game series tbh

I feel for both teams, it's unacceptable for either to lose in the first round, though one of them must. KD's not the kind of player that raises the level of his teammates, but that L belongs more to Booker and that Ted Cruz looking dude

It's insane how bad the East is this year I can't describe non of these teams except maybe Boston are a good playoff time Miami fed up so bad not going hard during the regular season.

Also Max Struss with a vintage trash playoff performance I cannot believe he got like 16mil per season the guy is a minimum player at best.

Another blowout first round game. The play-in was a much better watch. I think the only competitive game was the Knicks making a comeback to beat one leg Embiid

So many big losses this weekend...Considering the players available, Miami may have put up the best fight of all the teams that lost tbh

my opinion:

Mavs = marc cuban = loudmouth snek owner, luka crybaby snek
Philly = snek fanbase, stephen a snek’s team
Fakers = snek filled franchise ran by LeSnek
Saltdicks = obnoxious fanbase, mchale/ainge = snek brothers, brad stevens looks like mayor pete
Suns = KD = King Snek
pacers = yawn
knickles = spike sneks team.
Clips = still waiting for Playoff-P to actually win
Pels = Smoothie King Franchise, too sad to hate
OkC = home of former snek mod (demonOP)
Spurs = screw pop. won too many damn times alredy
Nuggs = Joker a T-Pups rival, funny dude & can hoop.
ma pups = sell the team glen!

That's gotta sting for Philly. One of the worst playoff losses I've seen in a long time. How did they eff that up

Miami really screwed the pooch not beating Philly. Can't tell me we wouldn't beat Knicks in a 7 game series.

Knicks vs Heat would’ve been an entertaining knife fight.

Bron/AD are almost immovable right now.

I concede Jokic as the best player in the game right now, but Bron’s ability to play up to that level at will might be the most impressive ability of any player in the league

Brunson was 8 for 29 tonight. And that doesn't even count the shots that lead to FTs.
These things happen when players actually are responsible for contributing to the offense and are having a rough shooting night. Hopefully Herro bounces back and gets in focus and starts hitting his 3s. Cause I have no idea how we're going to score let alone keep up with them if he's trash again.
