That Utah/Denver game was something.
Tied at the end of Regulation. But The #3 Seed Nuggets, pulled away in OT.

Nets might just want to forfeit games 2-4. This thing might be an ugly 4 game sweep. Levert looking like a scrub against elite wing defenders. Can’t even get a shot off. Not facing Portland D anymore. I don’t think they even needed to put Ananoby on hm yet. Rondie Hollins Jefferson seems to be more than enough.

Makes me start to think that the 1st, and possibly 2nd seeds, should have a Bye.
1 vs 8, and 2 vs 7 tend to be ridiculous.

This game is over. Nets look like Kyrie against Milwaukee.

Ergh. Not getting top 2 is a kick in the balls. Bucks and Toronto have cake walk first rounds.

People got excited seeing Nets outplaying a veteran Portland team playing like game 7 of the NBA finals for their lives, thinking they can steal a game or 2 from Toronto. That Blazers team plays no defence so young talented guys like Levert are gonna go off with CJ or heaven forbid Mello switching on you lol

I expect Lebron and AD to do whatever they want whenever they want and more importantly for their countless scrubs to get some confidence.

Toronto is so good defensively. When I watch them and then watch our games, I just don't think our defensive schemes are very good.

Not sure how FVV wasn’t an allstar in the east averaging nearly a 20 on a 2nd seed contending team. This guy is better and more proven in the biggest stages than most PGs in the east with elite 2 way game and MASSIVE floor spacing abilities.

Lot of players slipping. Nobody mopping up after possession. Seems more dangerous than covid.

Don't care much about our win vs. the Sixers. Not as much as me making top 3 in the Wall of Shame.

Porzingis ejection was nuts. Cuban is going to go ballistic on the league if Dallas loses.

Too much of a sportsman/gentleman to not dunk in that final possession. Ran out the clock when he could've easily laid it in.

Potentially two missed games for birth of child. Without a rolled ankle, that is.

Orlando's off to a good start. Doubt they keep it up, but it would be funny if they could take some games off the Bucks.
