Cavs have played 1 game that they actually have gone full throttle in since Boston and they dominated Milwaukee.

Cavs are just waiting for the playoffs.

They lost but the Brooklyn Nets have hit on a winner with their coach Jordi Fernandez.

He has probably done a bit too well for the Nets tanking hopes, but they have their long term gaffer locked in

OMG HALIBURTON
Raul

lol that Flying V formation was something out of a kids sports movie.

That play by Tyrese was something the Pacers ran in the playoffs last year. Basically took a play out of an NFL playbook with WR/TE routes.

Jenny Bocek is responsible. Against the Celtics in the playoffs last year it got Aaron Nesmith a wide open look he missed to win the game.

Tyrese drilled it. He's been so clutch ALL year, even when he wasn't playing well.

The egregious thing was using the last timeout on a challenge. It's not the coaches fault that Dame couldn't get open.

Giannis with 0 4th quarter points. Not really an elite basketball player. No wonder the Bucks peaked after 2021.

It was worth it to make sure Haliburton's foot was in. That was close.

Uhh did you even watch the game? Pacers were doubling and collapsing on him anytime he had the ball. He generated tons of open looks. Bucks were down 10 in the 4th when he came and only lost on an incredible 3 and awful Scott Foster special.

They were outscored by 9 points in the 14 minutes he sat.
