NBA: Playoffs thread..

[AlexJones]

Damn..I did a joke parlay earlier in the day for $50, Pacers ML/Phillies ML/Blue Jackets and bottom-feeder Reds..3-2 in the 9th with a runner on 2nd and 0 outs followed by a botched bunt strikeout, another strikeout(caught looking on an 0-2 with a runner on 2nd lol) followed by nice contact that directly hit the RF..

Reds starter Bailey is WOAT. I took St Louis

tavelling is a travesty yiu cant even use nba games to teach lids not to travel ...

Local JV girls team they won't let them shoot threes either. Everyone wants to be Curry from downtown and Eurostep from halfcourt to a layup. They are ruining the game. NBA is so inconsistant. Eventually they are going to have to push back on that. Not sure how it can get much worse.

The NBA is so desperate to make Giannis a superstar, they let him pick up his dribble from half court to dunk the ball.

But the occasional traveling allowed back then was pretty much what is called the gather step today.

What is allowed today is just nowhere near what the rules are supposed to allow. It’s insane.

NBA has its highest ratings in 20 years, get used to it

Houston looks so bad outside Harden. If it stays that way I can see Minny pulling off the series upset.

Chris Paul playing like Harden in 2012 finals

I'm hoping the NBA juices the balls so there's even more scoring. Anything to make old people mad

[Robz4000]

Trevor Ariza forgot how to play basketball apparently too.

Change the rules or equipment all they want. Just have consistant rules.


LOL at thinking older folks are all against change.

[sickdsm]

[AlexJones]

Derrick Rose guarding Harden 1 on 1. LOL

Summized Thibs coaching genius right there TBH. Scored a bunch of points? Make him defend the MVP.

[Killakobe81]

now the great thing about today's nba...
Young guys like Mitc , Tatum, Simmons have all balled out in their first playoffs ...
However, what excuse does #1 overall picks KAT or Wiggins have for not being dominant in this series?!

[Killakobe81]

capella just earned himself a max contract ...
Today's NBA elite big men

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Clint Capela has been the best center in this game and it's not even close.

agreed and great timing he is a RFA too..

CP0 playing like CP0 in the playoffs. Not sure why anyone is surprised. If he doesn't start showing up, I'll be curious to see who he and his fanboys blame. Can't blame Blake anymore, obviously.

They're trash. Stat padders like Love.

Derrick Rose still guarding the MVP hhahahahahahaha

[Brunodf]

D.Rose leading the Rockets comeback on both ends

[sickdsm]

Thib relying on MVP-era Rose to do it on both ends of the court............... If theres' an equivelent of Bobby Buche's coach in Waterboy, this seems it.

[Clipper Nation]

Rose is clearly Thibs' version of Austin Rivers, Wes Johnson, Jamal Crawford, 80-year-old Paul Pierce, etc. An atrocious player that still gets tons of minutes due to personal biases.
