Official NBA General Discussion 2019-20 V2.0

I think celts and miami are the toughest teams in the playoffs... if raps can get by celts... its on to the finals and a win, imo... but celts are very solid.

What makes you think it won't be the Heat in the ECF? It's looking like they'll be in position to sweep the Pacers after today. Then they'll be well rested to take on the Bucks.

I have no idea if we can beat the Celts, although them losing Hayward really helps. But we match up pretty well with the Heat. The only teams in the playoffs that I fear are Clippers, Rockets and Celtics. Not so co-incidentally, Gasol is not a good matchup against those teams.

Without Gordon, I am 50/50 against the Celtics. With Gordon, I would have given the Celtics the edge 30/70.
We match up just fine against Walker, Smart,Brown,Tatum,theBig.

That's a demoralizing run by the Rockets right there wow, 15-0 run.

NBA players make wearing a mask look cool

[B-Ball Freak]

Horrible shooting from the Magic

[S ID]

Magic 3/27 from the field. Yikes.

I don’t see Orlando winning anymore games In This series. They’re good for surprise game one win and that’s it.

Don't worry they will choke

Game 1 was a fluke, like expected.

[Rob Diaz]

Orlando's getting every single call and still down 20 lol.

I know it will never happen because the league loves scoring, but I hope the NBA does something about rewarding offensive flopping. Every game is full of it, it's killing the product, makes it tough to watch. They're all jumping into defenders, drawing cheap 3-point fouls that would be ridiculed if you called it on the streets, etc.

I'm sure we'll see plenty of it later tonight, Lillard is one of the main beneficiaries of it.

[steamed hams]

Damn Orlando is trash, no wonder they only won 33 games lol

I don't understand how they make that call. Lowry and Derozan used to get that call all the time and now it feels like Lowry never gets that call.

Definitely trash today, but in fairness the Magic are missing some of their main players.

[Rob Diaz]

Nice comeback by Orlando to cover the spread.

Milwaukee has 0 reliable, consistent go-to options, it really shows when they need a FG.

[LJKO]

I still believe in Orlando can take this series but if not then Bucks are so done in the 2nd RD thou, Reason: Middleton ^_^

[NinjaBro]

Useless Magic had 1 job to do, 1 JOB!!

[Rob Diaz]

Giannis is obviously an elite player, but his offensive flaws really limit his team's ceiling. He should be a 1b scoring option on a title team(best player on the team, but not the lead offensive option).

[MixxSRC]

Bucks are going to be exposed if Middleton continues to play like this

[JN]

LOL Knicks

[Lord_Zedd]

RIP Knicks lmao
