Re: ATL - Conference Semis
how's my Brunson equals Knicks Jrue take going? Getting help in the second round with injuries to the other teams best player, playing an underwhelming overachieving ECF opponent.

Did Draymond just form tackle Donte?

Triple double aside last game, dude is still a black hole. Just a black hole that is making shots at the moment.
Go Bucks!

Like I observed, it was a similar action as Dame's - leg hanging back, suddenly putting force on your heel moving rapidly fw to a loose ball. Sutterer makes the same observation. Validates it wasn't a byproduct of rushing Dame back.

I disagree with this honestly. He’s the 2ndary play maker on the team, it’s his job to create. He’s averaging 22/6/6 these playoffs and the team is thriving. He’s more than just a high volume low efficiency player.
RIP Kobe Forever. GOAT 8-24. Long Live Giannis

He's been a version of himself I haven't really seen in his career. He has been a black hole in the Bobby mold most of his career, but he's been pretty selfless with the ball in his hands in the playoffs. I've enjoyed watching him play for the first time ever.

Timeout. "Chris Finch doesn't like the vibe."
"Vibe" clearly in the lead for most overused word of the decade.

Butler is a "winner" but man he is too passive too often for someone with his ability. Sure his injury and age haven't helped either. He badly needed Steph to remain healthy so he could pick and choose him spots better.

That would require them to admit they were wrong.

Not even close.
"Literally" is smashing everyone while never being used appropriately.
If you want to get technical, almost every twitter post uses that formula where the second sentence starts with the word "like." So its probably "like."

Re: ATL - Conference Semis
Lost in all of this is the fact that New York was probably going to beat them even with Tatum last night. Knicks were getting what they wanted in the second half.

Well yeah, but the Celtics have still been the better team for most of the series. 3-1 isn't insurmountable if Tatum didn't get hurt.

Assuming Dallas isn't required to keep Nico due to the corrupt deal with Nike...
...then yes! Fire Nico, trade AD and Kyrie, rebuild right.
As it stands though Nico is liable to flail to try and justify trading the heart and soul of basketball in Dallas.
Left to his own devices, I wouldn't put it past Nico to trade Flagg for pieces who fit better around AD considering how seriously he targeted him, and how Nike surely doesn't want to see AD end up on the scrap heap.

Literally now has a second definition on the actual dictionary which is figuratively.
