What awful scheduling by the NBA. The only game of the day, and the first play in style playoff game and they put it on in the middle of the day. I would have watched it if it were on at a normal evening start time.

i think that they wanted to give the teams as much rest as possible in case there was a second game needed today.

6 or 7pm Saturday, and the second one 8 or 9pm Sunday would have been fine.

If we're lucky and move on to the next round(s), maybe Robyn gives birth in between playoff rounds with the previous one being a sweep and we wait for our next-round opponent who needed all 7 games to advance.

Man. Nets fan on the GB saying levert is an all star level talent. Dudes FG % has went down every year in four years and is 25. Even with everyone going out he is at 18 4 4 this year on terrible efficiency and plays no defense. How is that all star level. Imagine KD and Kyrie playing. Dude might average 9ppg. With his poor efficiency that's all he should be averaging.

I would bet with the guy but we all know how nets fans honor bets.

If the doctor's a C's fan, maybe he'll induce her between playoff series. 8-)

Proky trying to weasel out of our bet because he claims that a photoshopped picture of Kyrie dressed as a clown is racist.

What’s the usual recovery time from an achilles - not just on the court but 100%? Feel like that’s a bad one, wondering if it will be a long climb back for Durant next season.

Dude’s almost 32 also so no spring chicken.

Remind me to link you to some of the bigoted garbage MrDollarBills has posted over the years. I have absolutely no idea how he hasn't been permabanned. If I'd known you were making a bet with him, I would have cautioned you against it.

Not going to go digging just now, but I can get around to it if anyone's interested. (Although if memory serves, a mod sanitized some of his posts the last time I reported him. Someone's protecting him over there.)

Probably fair to not expect anyone over there to keep their word on a bet.

Wonder when Rondo is back playing? Seems like he's finally put himself on a playoff team that could go far and he gets hurt. Has it really been 10 years sense he was on a good playoff team?

Jazz v Nuggets in a bubble with no fans must feel like the most non event playoff game for a long, long time. :lol:
