I think Miami can knock out one of the top teams. Hopefully Butler is okay. Would love to see them knock out Boston again for the giggles

Will Curry even want to do that? I think he'll want to compete. It's essentially Klay, Green, and Curry left and Green might be gone. Will he want to waste his last few years playing for nothing and possibly without his buddies?
I would love to see him in Denver. Picks, Porter, Braun, Watson and filler.
I think he'll still fetch a lot.
Yeah it's a tough situation. He'll want to compete but players also want to retire with one team. Klay said as much when talking about re-signing with the Warriors. Him with Jokic would be fun. I'd love to see that. I suspect he stays but would be happy to be mistaken.

That would be great. And the Heat are one of teams capable of actually taking down the Celtics.

I just can't support for Embiid. Which is a shame as I love his game besides his personality. Team Butler over Team Embiid.

How is Embiid not touching the ball in high paint area against the zone? Is NN crazy? 15 min of not doing anything against the Spo zone D.

Jimmy Butler is so fun to watch in the playoffs. Dude is such a great teammate and just whatever you need to win. I have not had a single player in all sports where I watched a team for the player and have had a hard time finding another player in the NBA since Kobe retired, but Butler and Jokic are probably the only two who come close.

Jimmy one of the few guys that can flip the switch in April, May, and June. I fully believe the regular season is practice/maintenance for him.

Heat beat 76ers. Then DeMar bounces them out for good. That's what I want.

The Bulls should've never traded Jimmy. GarPax set that franchise back a decade.

Embiid has that playoff look again. Dude needs to really start getting over this. Though he is probably playing on the least talented team he has played with in a while
