Around the NBA (and other Sports) 2021-22, Part 3

how can the lakers be so bad and still in the playoff hunt in the west? we had to damn near win every game just to get to 5th! I hate it here!! He already skated in the east for years after cheating to get around us, won in a fluke bubble, now the west is slowing down. gonna trade RW for good players (no stars but better fit) and bam, contender again. he has luck and magic up his bum!!

yeah yeah extremely hard worker and great talent and all that, but boooooooooooooo!!!

East is a war, but just think how battle-hardened we'll be when we bully our way into the NBA finals...

(BTW, there is only one RW in the league now, and he wears green. Westbrook will just need to change his initials...

the emardens or harbiids have 10fts after 1... just getting warmed up.

Oladipo playing for Miami tonight.

Lowry such a good and smart teammate. Saw Dipo struggling with his drives. On that last possession, Kyle could've taken the three but elected to swing the ball to Dipo in the corner for an open three. Splash. No lip-reader but Dipo thanked Lowry as HOU called timeout.

When will Herro retire? Most annoying young player in the league. And why can't the Cs draft someone like that to complement the Jays? True definition of microwave scorer. 21 pts in the 2nd alone.

The best way to slow herro is to attack him on defense. The legs get more tired. Make him work more. He’s not a good defender. Regular season a guy like herro doesn’t get picked on much. That’s how the bucks really wore down herro in playoffs last season

JRich with 15 points for the Spurs so far. Langford is playing too.

where is lebron? I just tuned into their game.

edit: he didn't play? is the west that bad that they can be trash and still throw games?

I watched the last 6 minutes of the Spurs-Lakers game. Very satisfying to see the Lakers headed to hell in a handbasket.

But they got their Banner 17 in 2020.

I think 1 championship then 10 years of being irrelevant is fair.

There's a thread/poll from a few days ago on the Bulls board and many of them say they'd like to play the Celts in the postseason. I would like that matchup too haha. Demar is a handful but I think we match up well and they have a weak defensive front court that we could exploit.

Apparently Ben Simmons is filling a grievance against the Sixers. He wants to recoup the money he lost in fines. And this says he's going to sit on the bench on Philly Thursday night so he can use the bad reception he gets as evidence that the Sixers are very mean to him.

We are a horrible matchup for the Bulls. We are one of the best finishing teams in the league, and they allow the most shots at the rim in the league. They have nobody who could check Tatum, Caruso and Lonzo are just too small. Rob would wreck Vuj as a lob threat, and we have endless good defensive guards/wings to throw at Lavine and DeRozan.

Any Bulls fan who may read this, y’all don’t want it. Most likely scenario is we finish 4th and them 5th, so everyone will get what they want.

Bulls are pretenders.

Perfect opponent for the Celts in the 1st round.

Since going 9-14 against us, Oshae Brissett has gone 8-35 over the last five games.

The Celtics have been starmakers for a few years now.
