Not a good look for Nick Nurse:

Also not a good look for Masai to talk sh*t about the coach who worked there for 10 years and won an NBA title.

Also, probably the same thing Steve nash said when he left the nets haha.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

With Nurse’s firing, there are now only 7 active coaches who have coached their current team for at least 3 full seasons — Pop, Spo, Kerr, Malone, Bud, Monty, Jenkins. Only 2 of those 7 don’t belong to the Popovich Coaching Tree.

The two teams with the top two MVP candidates remain undefeated. The other 14 teams aren’t sweeping. At least not in this universe/timeline.

Embiid. Kawhi. Paul George. Giannis.


Injuries killing these playoffs.

I'm jealous the Nets bounced the ball off their faces in crunch time and handed Game 3 to the Sixers while our opponent actually played well and hit big shots lol.

No timetable for Kawhi's return. So basically he's out for the year unless the Suns all retire from basketball.

Bucks/Heat the only interesting game for me today(Lakers/Memphis is way too late for me).

Remember when the Celtics lost home court because of blowing enormous leads to trash teams like the Nets.

Cancun Nets. All she wrote. Can't even steal one at home with Embiid out.

Nets are the worst team in the playoffs by far

Yup, that’s the issue with this Celtics team. They relax too much or play down to competition. Like how the heck do you blow a 28 point lead to this garbage nets team. The fact you are up 28 and showboating around shows how bad the nets are in the first place but anyone is capable of winning in the nba when you just stop competing which the Celtics did.

Should’ve gotten the 3rd seed. Nets are a guaranteed sweep every year. Bums

Still will prefer the homecourt over Philly than the easier round 1 team tbh.

Biid has a week to get his knee treated.
Great.
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.
