8-1 when bam scores over 20, undefeated when Bam and Jimmy combine for over 45. Let’s get big games from them and the shooters and take control of this series

At this point, how much worse could Yurt be? I know he’s been in Spoberia since coming back from injury, but chit…


Think Spo wants a defender there so hes going with Zeller. I think he will tell him to clean it up and be a net positive player. Will be something to follow this game.


100%. If spo is playing him it’s because he’s the better option in the system. Not ideal.. but some people calling for Bam to play 48 mins in a 7 game series is just idiotic lol

I would say if Zeller continues to be a net negative, give Haslem a go. I’m sure he can give you a solid 5-7 mins


Wouldnt that be some ****. Old man Haslem holding down Finals minutes and retiring with a chip. A dream.

I hope the extra rest will add some spring to Butlers step. That ankle going to be another hurdle to overcome this series.

I'm not sure what Elliot Page has to do with this thread, but there has been a trend in recent game threads of sexist/transphobic rhetoric that I'm not keen on. The Moderators have also received a number of reports/complaints about this type of stuff.

You're a quality poster Enso, but let's leave this stuff out of our forum.

still remember this as if it was yesterday, sitting infront of my tv in my room having a presidente ( or two or three i dont remember )


This play always made me wonder how much time you could theoretically waste by throwing the ball as high as possible (without hitting anything). I'm still not sure. Anyone?

Lol I kinda remember that, but he screwed up the toss. Wade's throw went waaaaaay higher. After googling, seems like there's no rule against it but you'd probably only be able to waste ~4 seconds with a perfect throw.

Disappointed in Spo for apologizing to that female reporter. That being said, I still love Coach Spo.

Why disappointed? Ramona Shelburne is a well-respected and knowledgeable reporter and Spo knew it wasn't right to say she has an 'untrained eye'. I doubt anyone pressured him to apologize, he just knew he was wrong in this case. If he apologized to some dbag like Skip Bayless, on the other hand...

I want him to fully focus on the NBA Finals, no distractions. After the Finals, apologize to whoever you want.

I don't think it took any of his focus away to give a quick apology. Also, Steve Kerr said the same thing and everyone knows it - they're definitely trying to make Jokic a scorer lol.
