Other Playoff Series 

Post#1 » by mercury » Tue Apr 19, 2016 2:40 am

Discuss any playoff games...
How about Mavs with half a healthy roster stealing one in OKC?

DMO is supposed to get a bigger role vs. the Warriors (so far shooting 10 for 27 in April)

Mavs have something called grit which the Pistons really lack and that allowed them to fight and win.

Yeah I saw that ass kicking the Heat laid on the Hornets coming a mile away. I thought maybe Charlotte might have stolen that one if they got hot from three but Clifford really hasn't grasped the difference between the regular season and the postseason. I'll be really interested to see if he makes any sort of adjustment since he's historically awful at that.

I was hoping the Rockets would give GSW something resembling a series. I'm hoping that Portland can find a way to upset the Clippers, I was one of the few around RGM that liked their chances of making the playoffs and I hope they can keep it going against LAC whom I despise. Poor Memphis. Kind of feel bad for Boston losing Bradley, that series would've been great.

Something is wrong with your game plan if you play defensively-challenged Frank the Tank 18 minutes and he doesn't get a shot attempt. That said, it was pretty hard to predict Deng going completely bonkers like that. Charlotte may still make a series of it, but I think everyone knows that a healthy Heat time is the biggest challenge to Cleveland in the East, even without Bosh.

Not that hard to predict when you keep sending Deng's defender into the lane to bump Whiteside and leave him wide open in the corner repeatedly. Or throwing poor Jeremy Lin at Wade in the post. Clifford is a match ups (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

Return to Detroit Pistons
