Around the NBA 12

[JMAC3]

is it Thibs or have the Knicks committed a ton of money to a 1st round exit team.

I don't see any growth out of that core, they are what they are.

They are still up 3-2 in series, I would think they win one of the next two and aren't collapsing a 3-1 lead.

coming back to this, that team is gross seeing how much it cost them.

KAT is playing so dumb today, he's making Miles look like a genius.

5 first round picks for a solid defending guard who scores occasionally?

maybe a new coach can sort it out better

Bridges was awesome in OT, you have the reverse announcers jinx going on here lol

[fatlever]

I've watched almost every game so far in the playoffs but I checked box score earlier last night and it seemed like BOS and OKC were both well in control. Wish I'd watched both games now.

Ive been setting dvr to record all the wc games. i set it to record 15 mins early so i can watch 4th q of ec games, then all of wc games - fast forward if team im rooting for gets down by more than 15, stop ff if lead gets back to 6-8. i was about to ff the nugz game until the comeback started.

im rooting for

pacers
knicks

nugz
wolves, but still love curry. green kills the vibe tho

i'll root for any of the wc teams over ec in finals... which is almost always the case my entire life the unless lakers are in finals - exceptions - rooted for lakers over celtics in 80s and in '08 '10

there was a lot of that yesterday

I work from home now and spent most of the day watching basketball and typing **** on the general board. Its fun when you don't go for either team.
I still think Boston and OKC lost their games more than Knicks/Nuggets winning it. Tatum went 94 Starks and OKC's early foul choice at the end of the game was weird.

Also why do NBA teams down the stretch when it gets tight just hand the ball to one guy and expect them to do it all. Is it the ego of the players? Heck even MJ passed to little white guys to win the games a couple of times.
Pass the ball around and get an easier shot FFS. OKC and Boston's leads were due to their awesome team work but it died at the end.

Cavs are screwed.

[Diop]

Cavs are screwed.

if they lose easily, they HAVE to blow up this team this offseason. they had a similar playoffs last year, alright but not good enough to take the next step.

or they just welcome Lebron back as the saviour again

Also a great lesson to show junior basketballers on the importance of securing the rebound on free throws. inexcusable to lose the game by giving up offensive boards on free throws.

a lot of choke jobs this round so far

there is something about Curry that just annoys the **** out of me. Greatest shooters ever, but man he **** me.

also have to begrudgingly give credit to dick head green for how he's lifted his game, especially scoring in these finals.

Surprised the Cavs were in it at all without Mobley and Garland. It's over without them, D-Mitch always has the worst luck.

[JDR720]

Home teams may never win again.

Finally saw the last quarter of the Pacers game. Hilarious. Suck on that Kenny Atkinson.

[fatlever]

no curry for next week at least... ouch

[Chapelchilla]

Yeah, that hurts. On the brightside for them they do still have Buckets who pretty much willed two pretty mid Miami squads into the finals. Gonna be interesting to see how that plays out.

Pacers have been quietly efficient and generally they work hard. Hope they sweep the Cav's!

[Liver_Pooty]

This spray and pray threes everywhere Celtic offense is nauseating.

Yes I’m aware we hired their assistant.

[JDR720]

What a choke job. Holy cow.

[KembaWalker]

Boston has a massive, overwhelming amount of talent so they can get away with their crappy system. Why we chose to emulate that style with this roster never made any sense

[Bassman]

What a choke job. Holy cow.

Celtics could be in some trouble.

But how wild is it to have both they and Cleveland lose their first two on their home courts? Unbelievable.

[wilson115]

They won it all with the assistant around, Charles has that at least. Begging the question, what else has changed this year?

[HornetJail]

They won it all with the assistant around, Charles has that at least. Begging the question, what else has changed this year?

they were averaging 15/40 from 3 in the playoffs last year, not 12/50 or whatever they've done in this series

[Diop]

i missed the game today, wow Celtics, WTF

[fatlever]

Watching this Gilbert Arenas Javaris Crittenton doc... I totally forgot he was in the bobcats organization for a brief second in 2010 training camp

"October 15, 2010

Charlotte Bobcats General Manager Rod Higgins announced today that the team has waived guard Javaris Crittenton. In four preseason appearances, he averaged 3.3 points, 1.8 assists, 1.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 13:27 minutes."
