NBA PLAYOFFS THREAD

[lefty]

Coach Bud looking good after the Bucks' collapse.

Is Bud just waiting around until Pop retires?

I miss Bud

[widowmaker]

Go far enough upstream and you’ll see that i agree with you. Another poster was writing off Curry’s rings as all having excuses and i was demonstrating anybody can manufacture that narrative for any player if they tried to

Na not in the mood to scroll through and read old post.

Good to see that backstabbing mofo Doc Rivers get bounced. Alpha mike foxtrot.

Still shakes me that the Spurs were one game in Houston from replacing Pop with Coc in 1999. I know you're not a Pop fan but Rivers is an absolute bottom tier coach who wrecks great rosters and the team would be in Anaheim now had Rivers gotten the job.

anybody else hoping Cleveland wins today just so we can get that series over with?

Yep just dragging out the honor of losing to the Celtics next round

Garland getting caught on an unforced 8-second call in the 4th quarter of a close-out game

Is he normally this boneheaded?

Was rooting for a game 7 myself. Series started off pretty ty but has gotten better as Orlando has figured out how to play playoff basketball.

Think this Magic team could give the Celtics trouble with KP out tbh.

Hoping the Mavs take the Clippers behind the woodshed here.

i dont have much love for the mavs but nephew with the back of a bus tbh

plus a 0lippers first round meltdown increases the chance that PG just decides to bolt and leaves that franchise in ruins being led by a broken down nephew and aging harden (who actually had a really good season tbh, good on him)

If PG leaves its kinda bad news for the Spurs since OKC still owns their 2025 pick and can swap in 2026 tbh.

unless PG comes to play for Pop and be a leader/mentor for Wemby

Not sure I'd want Playoff Pee anywhere near Wemby in a mentorship role tbh.

Actually rooting for a Cavs implossion so that Mitc and Garland become avilble.

[Mr. Body]

Reading takes of EC fans, including Cavs, you know, fans who actually watch Cleveland, this isn't uncommon for Garland. Doesn't seem like the smartest guy.

[Robz4000]

Stick a fork in em, the Clippers are done.

[Mr. Body]

West was supposed to be stacked, but we're watching the terminal days of a lot of players and teams. Warriors, Lakers, Clippers, Suns.

[timtonymanu]

2nd season in a row where I don’t care who wins. All the teams I don’t like got eliminated in the 1st round.

Lol giving Nephew an extension
Lol having broken down Nephew instead of Wemby

Don't really wanna see the Mavs win, but I'm cool with the rest.

[LeBowen]

Orlando are onto something, starting four 6'10 players and it was actually working.
They just need an elite point guard and they'll be contending in weak East as soon as the next year.
Banchero is going to be elite, but he needs a point guard.

Reminds me of someone.

Banchero is the pg. The highest area in his player usage isn't isos, post ups, hand offs, alley hoops, or pick & roll/pop. It's pick & roll ball handler. Orlando need a deadeye shooter at either guard spot, and more on the bench.
