Yep. He couldn’t defend his title.

And with the team totally healthy too.
The allegations that they had never even beaten a single 50-win team remain.
Kind of silly, but fun to think about, lol.

69 points from Joker and Murray. The role guys only gave 21 points on 8-28 shooting. Brutal.

Fire Mike Malone. No adjustments! LOL.

Michael* Malone clearly having his lockerroom being the big difference.

It's not like he lost to an 8 seed.

Best case scenario still in play. Boston absolutely baptizes the Pacers and wipes that **** eating grin off Haliburton's face, which seems inevitable. Then in the Finals, Minny stuffs Boston in a locker like the frauds that they are and continue to be.

While dealing with the death of his brother.

Whoever ends up the champ is the weakest champ in years.

The Minnesota- Indiana Finals is going to piss off so many big city people

Maybe the Porter family has one more scandal in them.

Giannis and Jokic are at the same level. One plays defense though.

Hopefully the Denver-Jokic-juggernaut agenda dies down after this.

Indy is not good, they are losing to Boston. Indy is the worst ECf team in a loooong time.

Jokic was rough in that one despite the numbers. Got an incredible whistle down the stretch, which was the only thing that bailed them out from not losing by 20.

Chris Finch just won a series with his lead assistant in charge. Bud had already blown the series before the tragedy.

Wolves been pretty tough. I don't know about that.

Let’s go Wolves!

rilamann · Post #1097 » by **rilamann** » Mon May 20, 2024 2:48 am

Boston can start planning their parade routes now.

Denver was the only team left that could have and IMO, would have beaten Boston.

Remember when Mike Conley was "toast" like 7 years ago?

I don't know, this Wolves team presents a ton of issues for them, IMO.

Minny is a really bad matchup for Boston. Boston can't play big vs Minny, but Minny can play both small ball and twin tower lineups if they please. Good chance KP is just not gonna be effective/play as well
