Around the NBA - Play in Tourney Matchups

Holiday plays defense like the national media thinks Payton plays defense.

Miami playing dirty to hurt the Mill Walkers. If they could get Giannis or Kris out for the series, they'd have a better shot.

Actually, anything would improve their chances from where they are now, which is zero.

The rest of this game is about the refs trying to make sure the Heat don't injure a Buck.

Including Tyler Herro in the James Harden deal would've made the NBA such a better place overall.

As a heat fan do you give Riley a pass cause he has brought in a few chips or are you pissed that he missed a window to be contenders cause he was unwilling to give up a Gram model poon hound for one of the best offensive talents in the game?

I think it takes longer to erode the goodwill and trust Riley has built up. Miami making the finals last year will carry them a while.

what he did to Dame a few playoffs ago was so impressive. Been a long time since we've seen a pg dominate a game from a defensive end.

still hate to admit it - sham is right - the Bucks would be better with Dame than Jrue. They're going to need someone in the clutch more than Jrue's elite defense the rest of the way.

Not true. You're considerably more perceptive and understanding that you were a few years ago. Sometimes it's harder and takes longer for some of us. Not our fault it was so hard.

And you can still keep a few on your "most hated" list. We're all allowed that. I hate Too Tall Tingus - he lied to us, mislead us, used us, and tried to abuse us. But he knew himself so poorly that now the joke's on him.

I think I might be able to enjoy others success if we actually had some of our own. But its hard to wish well on others when living in squalor.

Going from 21 to 41 IS the definition of success. There's nothing about our team that says we won't be even better next year!

We will compete because WWW plays dirty in finding players the same way Pat Riley does, the same way Miami plays dirty in this game to stop Giannis & Co.

Next year we will get somebody good and when we have a point guard, Julius will actually have plays made for him! Watching the futility of Butler and Bam tonight is the proof a team needs a well run offense to win coordinated by a great PG. Tonight, Miami started with 2 SGs, no PG. Tragic that Dragic isn't that good for them.

Can you imagine how they'd be with both Dame and Jrue? Jrue is really strong physically and a great defender. Dame is Dame. It would be unfair.

Dragic pulled Middleton down by pulling on his uniform. Then trapped his leg.

They are trying to hurt Milwaukee. This is a really serious situation.

The cHeat, in the words of a great RealGMer, not mine.

Ever since Bam gave that self-congratulatory interview to TNT he’s going down the tubes.

Would be a really fun team to watch - they're both elite at what they bring.

Don't give them any ammo

These Dameists won't return the favor

I dont' know if anything could erode the goodwill of winning a chip(s)

but refusing to include this

T. HerroPG 10 0-2 0-0 0-0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 +0 0

in a trade for Harden would test it

Best play ever by Portis. They are tackling Giannis and trying to hurt him. Portis protected his fallen player.
I LOVE THIS.

BKlutch · Post #1817 » by **BKlutch** » Tue May 25, 2021 2:02 am

this is actually a great game for US. Butler, Bam, Ariza - they've all lost their cool. The team is turning into Thugs. They have nothing left. The worse they feel, the faster they are blown out, the more likely.... JB becomes the disgruntled player we need!

BKlutch · Post #1818 » by **BKlutch** » Tue May 25, 2021 2:06 am

Dedmon pushed PJ tucker into Portis as he was shooting a three. Correctly, the refs called the foul on Dedmon as against Portis, who got 3 FTs. They really tried to injure Portis while he was shooting the 3. Freaking crazy game. Milwaukee not retaliating.

What happened to Miami?
Maybe we should have wished Miami as 5th seed.

Butler for Obi + picks?
He could be great mentor for RJ and Thibs can coach Bulls again.
Riley will definitely ask for RJ so never mind.

How does one explain how Herro has turned into a Zerro.
