Injuries have always been a thing with Porzingas. Going back the last few years he's played 57, 43, 34, 17, 65, 57, 42 games. And now he's missing playoff games for the second straight year. He's only 29 and has one year left on his deal. It will be interesting to see what they do with him.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Hot take but I think OKC will hold on to win this game.

Been trending this way for years and the NBA hasn't done much to adapt. I'm not sure what the answer would be either but it kinda sucks that the regular season almost doesn't matter.

Boston might be fried? I find it hard to believe they’re going to shoot like Markelle Fultz this whole series though. Boston is still in this.

Holy **** is game 3 at MSG gonna be huge though. Biggest game at MSG since 1999 Finals I reckon.

I’d probably take Jalen Williams back as a centerpiece in a deal for Giannis if I’m being totally honest. He’ll thrive as a #1 somewhere, at some point.

Jokic has been pulling some Draymond level flailing and somehow getting the calls go his way

Unfortunately their draft capital is not great. One swap with Dallas in 28 is the only one they have that has any chance to be top five. Everything else is protected, theirs, or another good team with a star (Denver).

I’d almost ask them to send a bunch of picks to the Pels and Blazers and get the Bucks swaps and pick back as part of a deal centered on Jalen.

Say what you want about Tatum, he has one thing all the other MVP candidates don't have - a teammate who's better than him.

They definitely want Mazzula gone. Maybe we can orchestrate a Doc reunion?

It's gonna be OKC/Pacers.

They've been deep into witchcraft and God only knows what else and the promise signed in blood was the Finals.

Shai has been mostly ass in the playoffs, but his numbers now look good overall because he had one great game.

52 ts% against Memphis
55 ts% in game 1 against Denver

But after yesterday his playoff ts% is 57. Averages and small samples are great. :lol:
