You mean against the Bucks? We'd play the winner of Detroit/NY


Pretty sure they don’t reseed in the nba. Someone correct me if I’m wrong


You are correct

I love ball. Concert season for me runs from the beginning of Summerfest through the 1st week of October. The rest of the year needs hoops.

That whole sequence between AD and Ja was pretty funny.

I feel like AJax used to try that Ja putback once a game and only rarely finished it.

Trae vs Ja…who is better? I think it’s Ja but I feel like they are pretty much equal at this point.

Is Jason Kidd coaching his final game as a Maverick?

Oh yeah no reseeding. Go Miami.

He’s somewhere in the middle. That Hawks roster is just very mediocre. They’ve got some interesting pieces but nothing transcendent.

The end of regulation of Heat-Hawks was awesome. I think the Heat are definitely the more likely to give Cleveland something resembling a series in comparison to Atlanta. They can match them in terms of size and have some good perimeter defenders. I don't think they'll be able to manufacture enough offense, especially late in games, to actually come anywhere close to winning the series. I'm guessing we'll get Cavs in 5, but 3 of Cleveland's wins will come down to the last couple minutes.

The Heat injury players, so the Cavs should be scared.

Congrats to the Heat for keeping an unprotected pick from going to OKC next year. Now, go get your game against the Cavs and call it a season.

This Chris Haynes report of why Bud pulled Bol Bol from his rotation is wild. Sure, Bol Bol is probably nothing, but a coach wanting a player to lack discipline is wild.

I remember Giannis after a bit of a contentious foul kicking the ball like a soccer ball to keep his cool, avoid an altercation. Always interesting to see how players deal with these heated moments.
