Get prepared for Dort and Caruso you fraud.


Fraudiburton, Fraudson, and Karl Fraudthony Towns have all choked tonight. Only former NBA champions SIakam and OG showed up tonight for both teams.

Real talk, not trying to troll but how do the Raps fans deal with SGA vs either OG or Siakam. Do you root for your former Raptor or SGA?

Or is it just a win-win and you don't really care?


Raptors fan chiming

**** SGA, been rooting for our guys Siakam and OG since day 1 and we wont stop now.

Our window closed and we had to trade them, but the love will always be there.

IND is one more run away from reaching the finals. NYK is on the ropes. Thibs is out of his mind benching both KAT and Brunson

I'm indifferent. I'll probably be pulling slightly more for Indy because it's also an underdog story. If it's NYK (unlikely at this point), I'll probably pull a bit more for OKC since they don't play in our division. But at the end of the day, I'm happy with any of those three guys winning it.

They literally stole 3 points and momentum.

He was NOT out of bounds.

jehosafats wrote:That was not the same as what Hali did. He stopped dribbling with both feet. Established his right foot as the pivot. Got swarmed. Got out of the swarm by lifting up his pivot foot then passing off his left foot. The step-through is totally different:

"A progressing player who jumps off one foot on the first step may land with both feet simultaneously for the second step. In this situation, the player may not pivot with either foot and if one or both feet leave the floor the ball must be released before either returns to the floor."


The first part describes a step through.

The 2nd part talks about JUMPING and landing with both feet simultaneously. That's describing a jump stop, different than just stopping your dribble and picking a pivot foot.

Lmao I never seen that Villanova commercial.

I wish the Knicks found a way to keep Dante. They really missed out on that plot line.

People said Hart was garbage when we traded him in a package for Anthony Davis..

But here he is… airballing threes in the nba conference finals.

You don't want correct calls being made? As a fan with no horse in the race, I don't want points erased because Tony Brothers needs an eye exam.

The Knicks are playing so awful at both ends of the court that they deserve to lose. Just an unacceptable performance tonight.
