sucks that atlanta didnt win to send the process processing once again. If they dont trade Simmons this offseason, they are fucking retarded. Also, whoever gets Simmons, may god help you with that useless brick.

[ginobilized]

Conley helps the Jazz so much. Interesting half.
It’s too early to count Utah out just yet. I’m pulling for them to close this one out and get the next one at home.

If the jazz cant defeat the flippers without kawhi they should all kill themself.

Mann with 31 points, cuts it to 10, now 7 with another 3, 34 points for Mann.

:lol The Jazz are a fucking disgrace.

Clippers without nephew still look like the best team in the West tbh

[timtonymanu]

It’s too bad the Nets couldn’t close out yesterday. They literally are our last hope of nephew not getting a ring this season lol.

[SpurPadre]

Game 6 is a bigger chokejob because of the bigger magnitude but these past few games around the NBA playoffs have had just as embarrassing chokejobs that ours is not sticking out like a sore thumb as much as before lol.

[timtonymanu]

I don’t understand why people think a 20 point lead early on means it’s a win. This era of basketball has debunked that so much.

The Jazz are pathetic. This was probably their best shot at the title but they will run it back with the same team because they still have :cry DPOY Gobert. Mitchell will want out and probably go to the Lakers or something. :lol

[John B]

Clips just eliminated Jazz, 131 - 119. Watch Nephew got healthy in the 1st game. Without CP3, Nephew is going back to the Finals.

[daslicer]

He’s not coming back for game 1. If it’s even the best case scenario of ACL grade 1 sprain then he’s out for a few weeks.

[John B]

Is there anything from the Clips? None. So unless there is, Nephew is just resting. Heck he just motivated his teammates to stepped up and they did.

Haven't we seen this show before?

[daslicer]

Pride is enough for them to be motivated. He's not coming back for game 1. They said he had an ACL injury. The question is does he have a sprain or a tear. Either one is not good. Obviously the best case scenario is a grade 1 ACL tear that takes 2-4 weeks to heal.

[Arcadian]

They're fucking assholes too, though...but the lesser of two evils.

Nah, Clippers are the lesser evil. Durant + Harden + Irving combined out-evil Kawhi alone.

That said, the Nets would definitely win that matchup if Kawhi isn't 100%.

[R. DeMurre]

Wow, Terance Mann sure picked a good time to have the game of his life.

[John B]

If Kawhi rings with the forever jinxed Clippers, he would be Jordanesque tbh :lol

[Dejounte]

I’m counting the Sixers or Hawks out as far as which teams will likely win it all. Hawks are too green while Ben Simmons is a fake star.

That leaves

Clippers
Suns
Nets or Bucks

Like I said before, Kawhi will probably come back just in time to give us a “good NBA story”

There is no way the Bucks are beating the Clips in the Finals. Kawhi just knows how to own Giannis in the playoffs.

If the Nets make it through on the back of Durant then I’m gonna give the guy credit. That’s more than what any superstar has done in recent history.

If this whole thing didn’t happen with CP3, they would be my favorites. Suns will probably go down 0-2 without him, unfortunately. Yes, even without Kawhi. These Clips are built to win. Trotting out five wing-ish players seems tailor-made for today’s NBA and seems like the recipe for success.

[Gibbz]

Committing $205 million to a center who can't score and is unplayable in the playoffs. :lmao

Kawhi didn't own Giannis by himself in that series a few years back with the Raptors. The first two games Giannis dominated. The raptors then changed up their defensive strategy completely and created the wall defensive strategy where Kawhi was the primary defender but got help from Gasol,Ibaka,Siakam. The clippers don't have the set up to pull off the same defensive scheme on Giannis. They have no great interior bigmen defenders like Gasol,Ibaka, or a tall athletic perimeter player like Siakam that is mobile and quick enough to stay with Giannis. Giannis will bury Kawhi if they try to go with that strategy again.

[TD 21]

Where's all the Jazz believers and Scumbag trolls who claimed he was carrying a flawed roster? :lmao

Through all the injury induced twists and turns, in the end the it's on schedule for a typically predictable finish of Clippers vs Bucks (or Nets), with the former clearly in the driver's seat, like I said all along.

[timtonymanu]

Giannis’s free throw shooting :lol. And I thought Timmy had a slow technique.

[ace3g]

Both teams basically going with a 5 man rotation, lol

Committing $205 million to a center who can't score and is unplayable in the playoffs. :lmao

They really told me Gobert couldn't be compared to Poeltl :lmao :lmao :lmao

Thank fucking God we're paying Jakob a measly $9m and got him locked up for three seasons. Not like his value would've gone up without a playoff push or anything, but it's a great contract, and watching Gobert's absolutely hamper any hopes the Jazz might've had of retooling or re-upping their team gives me shivers. Poor Don, he played out this series like a superstar.

[ace3g]

Giannis just banked in a 3, lol

why do they need to revamp? Donavan got injured near the end and was playing at like 60% no? Utah is not a big market team so injuries won’t allow them to win a ship but they still were contenders this year and still have a young enough team to go at it again for another 3.

Meh Brooklyn had no chance, no way Harden was going to get healthy playing 45+ minutes every other night. This title is going to come down to how long Leonard and Paul are out.

Would be hilarious if Nephew is out the rest of the postseason and has to have his leg amputated, and the Clips win it all anyway.

I dislike Durant quite a bit but at least he isn't going to great lengths to masquerade his balding like Lebron. He's insecure about his basketball legacy but at least he isn't at Lebron levels when it comes to his hair.

Nephew is getting his 3rd ring but hey we get to see a small market team lose to him as well lol

Kawhi ain't coming back this post-season. He isn't built like that.

The west was so shitty this season and the Spurs couldn’t make the top 8. They need a lot of work.

[timtonymanu]

Kawhi ain't coming back this post-season. He isn't built like that.

I think they win even without him though.

[SpurPadre]

Move the 3 point line back. Today's game is out of control. It's fucking unwatchable. Fuck you Curry for ruining today's game.

[MVPCues]

Move the 3 point line back. Today's game is out of control. It's fucking unwatchable. Fuck you Curry for ruining today's game.

I agree. They could also eliminate the corner 3. Let the 3 point line continue the arc to the sideline rather than allowing a corner 3 that is almost 2 feet shorter.

[Chillen]

The Nets would have likely won it all if all healthy and if LMA kept playing for sure. No NBA title is ever guaranteed though even if you form a super team. The Nets could have won that game but they had a terrible OT and in the 4th quarter missed a ton of shots before the KD tying shot that was close to being a 3. I don't think Milwaukee did anything special to win this game 7 other than make more shots than the Nets did. I can see the Bucks losing the ECF to either 76ers or Hawks. This is it for Bucks they have a legit shot now to win it all. Got to beat the next team in front of you.

[KobesAchilles]

So I predicted a Suns vs Philly final but find myself in a weird spot where I can’t cheer for that faggot Chris Paul but I also can’t cheer for that faggot Kawhi. I mean them winning the title with Kawhi on the bench would be awesome if they do beat the Suns but man I just hope Embiid wins this shit. Though I do like Giannis as well

I have no idea who will win it all tbh. Suns are playing the best team basketball right now and Clippers have started to play really well. I can see Suns or Clippers though likely beating either Bucks/76ers/Hawks in a 7 game series. It's going to be tough though as Bucks/76ers/Hawks will be motivated. Clippers may not have Kawhi comeback at all. They would easily lose the Finals if they had no Kawhi

Suns looking pretty good now though and Bucks look legit.

[The Truth #6]

Random thoughts:

It feels like Bud has done enough to keep his job now, but we’ll see. Who would the Bucks replace him with? I guess Carlisle would be the best option.

As for us, moving on from both DDR and Pop seems too much to hope for.

If we somehow strike gold with the lottery ping pong balls, I’m less convinced Pop would walk away.

[R. DeMurre]

I just don't get all the critics acting like Giannis somehow isn't a great player. No, he's not the pure shooter that Durant is, but in what universe are Giannis's numbers for this series not great: 31.9 ppg, 12.9 rpg, 3.6 apg, 57.9 FG%. Ben Simmons deserves the criticism because he just stopped shooting, but Giannis is still averaging nearly 32 ppg, despite his free throw & three point issues.

They want him to be Durant and score from the perimeter all the time. But literally nobody can guard him one on one and he demands a wall to be stopped. The knock from “experts” is you just need to build a wall of 3 people to stop him but that’s really stupid bc that SHOULDN’T stop him. He should be able to kick it out to his shooters for wide open 3s all game long when you do that which should free up his game offensively. Last season the reason why they lost to the Heat wa s bc of how awesome Bam played. Dude could actually cover Giannis. But nobody else in the league can.

Also Giannis got reffed his MVP year by Kawhi and the Raptors bc the NBA desperately wanted a longer series. He should’ve won game 3 and never have fouled out.

Giannis game is ugly but he's reckon ball. When he wants to dominate the paint he has dominance that's just a level below what Shaq was during his prime years. You need either a team with great interior defensive big man like Bam that is athletic to contain him or you need a team filled with defensive bigs like the Raptors did with Gasol,Ibaka,Siakam, and big perimeter player in Kawhi to create the wall.

Sixers could take him out because they can form a wall with Simmons,Embiid,Dwight,Harris. It really will comedown to Middleton,Holiday,Lopez, all hitting shots when they are open. It will be interesting to see how the Sixers decide to defend him. If they go with single coverage then he's going to easily get 30 or more against them every game.

Bam did play great last year, but Giannis got his revenge this year, sweeping the Heat in spectacular fashion. This idea that a 26 year old superstar is somehow overrated because he doesn't have a ring yet is crazy.

[daslicer]

Man, giannis and durant are soo fucking good

Agreed. This was a great matchup. I'm disappointed it had to come to an end. Historically this was great duel much like Duncan vs Shaq, Duncan vs Dirk. You don't get to see two guys who are all time greats in their primes face each other often granted Durant is at the tail end but he's still in his prime. I'm hoping Giannis vs Embiid will be exciting in the next round.

Agreed. People just hate his game because like you said he's not a shooter. He definitely lacks a shooters touch. People need to accept he's a Shaq type of player and not a perimeter player like a Durant, or even Lebron. Once you accept his game is a game based on power and strength,agility, then you can appreciate it.

[tbdog]

He is Shaq in today's soft rules. I can't see him surviving as a 4 in the 90s or early 00's. Coming to think of it, imagine David Robinson in today's league. That's Giannis, but legit 7ft, stronger, automatic midrange, ft shooter, with Gobert defense.

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Genuinely super happy for coach Bud. Hope he wins it this year.

[R. DeMurre]

It's still a little perplexing why Durant had a last second shot in regulation, defended by 6'5" PJ Tucker, and a last second shot in OT against 6'3" Jrue Holiday. I'm glad both of those guys are tough defenders, and I get not putting Giannis on KD all game, but it seems like a defensive switch in those moments might've made sense.

[GreekSpursfan]

If i'm the Bucks i would still fire coach Bud even if he wins it all. I have issues with him on how the Bucks play on both ends but especially offensively where i don't see a variety of set plays, very ugly stuff, players not playing to their strengths. I would go Carlisle straight away, in fact i would secretly sign Carlisle right now for next season.
As for who's looking more capable of winning it, if the Suns get CP3 while they still have a chance i fancy them to win the whole thing, they are the most structured and well rounded team. I thought the Jazz would do it but Conley betrayed them yet again with his injury prone ass and he was looking good before the injury but he was terrible when he rushed back to play, he cost them everything. I still don't like the way the Clippers play even with Kawhi, too many iso's and your turn, my turn with PG13.

[Jordan Jackson]

People kept saying the Jazz were like the 2014 but it’s always been the Suns. The ball and player movement is just beautiful to watch. Monty knows the deal.

They have a good shot at the whole thing. Rooting for Monty.

If Giannis had kept up the shot profile he had prior to going 0-2, those numbers would have tanked. There was an obvious difference in his style of play where he massively reduced the shots he took outside, which myself and a few others were pointing out. No one is slamming Giannis for being a bad player. They were merely pointing out that his style of play was not sustainable to attain success. We’ve seen it before with LeBron and other flawed superstars who hadn’t yet developed an outside game. You can’t rely on bully ball through the entire playoffs unless you’re Shaq (maybe Giannis can reach that level and will do it this year, who knows) or his co-stars and role players step it up.

:lol You sure do get emotional about these things.

[Sugus]

why do they need to revamp? Donavan got injured near the end and was playing at like 60% no? Utah is not a big market team so injuries won’t allow them to win a ship but they still were contenders this year and still have a young enough team to go at it again for another 3.

Firstly, both of Mitchell and Gobert's contracts kick in starting next season, at something like $34m and $41m respectively. That's an enormous difference compared to the salaries they were making this season, which will necessitate changes from the get-go. I don't know their roster/contracts situation much, but they also showed some key deficiencies these playoffs: their wing defense is trash, and they really lack a reliable bench C option, preferrably a stretch-big to offset Gobert's game. Someone like our very own Dieng would do wonders for them.

And even beyond this, they'd be foolish to run it back without at least making some changes, as their team as currently constructed proved to be insuficcient (and particularly, too limited) to take on even a Clippers team lacking Neph for the most important games. Next season, the West likely gets much tougher, with several key star players returning to their teams from injury and months of rest; unless they want a second-round exit as a ceiling, they'll make some moves.

[Sugus]

Good victory by the Suns tonight. Hope they can put an end to the Clips quickly, get them into a hole early to give Nephew as slim of a chance to get back as possible. Go suns go... lol

If the Suns win the next game then the Clippers are down again into another 2-0 hole. I like to believe the odds will eventually comeback to hurt them and this time around they won't be able to get out of the hole.

This isn’t like going 0-2 against the Mavs or the Jazz. I think every game matters much more because the Suns are actually a well balanced, cohesive team with sufficient star power. This is all assuming CP3 comes back by game 3 or 4… if not, then anything goes unfortunately.

[KobesAchilles]

Devin Booker is becoming a big time player. First he destroys Lebron in game 6 and now he has a 40 point triple dub in his first WCF appearance without CP3. The dude is fun to watch.

[KobesAchilles]

Also I would love this series more if both CP3 and Kawhi were out for it. No real divas, no bitches, no moaning, just straight fun enjoyable basketball. A nice refreshing series

Number of threes from Giannis in wins: 8, 5, 0, 6..... 3.125 per game.

I remember when people here used to actually talk basketball. Now its just full of insufferable twats trying to make a name for themselves :lol

Gotta love the internet :lmao

Hawks/Suns would be a lot of fun to watch. Feels like it’s Bucks’ to lose of Leonard/CP3 out.

[Dejounte]

This is the most pathetic display I’ve ever seen from a “rising” star, if he isn’t acknowledged as one already. Ben Simmons.

[ace3g]

Ice Trae with a huge 3

93-87

Harris makes a layup

93-89

Hawks timeout

[ace3g]

Hawks and Sixers keep fighting over dead balls, lol

[ace3g]

Harris makes a layup/runner

93-92

1:01

[slick'81]

I remember the spurs wanting simmons for kawhi and phili basically laughed at us

[ace3g]

Huerter gets fouled on the 3. Makes all 3 FTs

96-92

54 sec

[Dejounte]

Let’s go, Hawks. I want the Bucks to have as little resistance as possible to the Finals.

[CGD]

Eastern conference semis have been awesome. Huerter stepping up in big moments to save Hawks’ bacon

[ace3g]

Embiid loses ball trying to spin on a post move, Gallanari gets outlet pass for dunk

In that case, root for Philly

[Dejounte]

In that case, root for Philly

IMO, Embiid would give the Bucks problems. I think the Hawks are just a bad matchup for the Sixers.

[LeBowen]

All those years of shameless tankig only to get eliminated by this guy:

I don’t know man. He’s been good this postseason and all, but as a hustle, blue collar, scrappy D (but not great), put backs type of player (ala Tristan Thompson in CLE). Is that worth top dollar though?

Nate mcmillan vs mini pop for the nba finals trip

they lost to Red Mamba Jr. tonight.

btw that photo gave me the creeps. Disgusting

[Arcadian]

:lol Cock Rivers...what a useless piece of shit

[tbdog]

Rivers is such an overrated coach. That's embarassing to lose to Hawks. Also considering how bad Young played in game 7.

[Dejounte]

[timtonymanu]

Cock Quitters and losing another game 7 :lol

What has this faggot done other than live off of a 2008 championship where his team was stacked?

[CGD]

IMO, Embiid would give the Bucks problems. I think the Hawks are just a bad matchup for the Sixers.

Maybe, but that’s all Philly has. They’re second option is Seth freaking Curry (no joke)!! Simmons and Tobias shrunk. A one-dimensional team like that makes it easier to guard for a stout D like Bucks.

These Hawks are legit (and fun!). Bucks might well win but it won’t be easy.

[LeBowen]

I didn't rate Trae, but he's proven haters wrong.
Even when he had an awful shooting night, they had to double him and he still made good decisions in most situations.

The next superstar point guard, no doubt.

Always nice seeing Doc lose.

Bucks have to take advantage of this. It's their year.

[slick'81]

Happy for gallo going to the ecf

[Dejounte]

Expect the Sixers to be wheelin and dealin this offseason. We’re talking about Daryl Morey over here. The king of trades.

[CGD]

Unfortunately the well is pretty dry for big fa's

That’s true. Crappy year to have shit ton of space

[daslicer]

This game is about Simmons. He can never be a legit number 2 guy on a championship team. This guy is a Lamar Odom type. The Sixers need a legit number 2 option.

[CGD]

Agree. Simmons has to be out the door. Problem is his value is now on the floor. And that Tobias deal, ugh...

[timtonymanu]

On a less important note, Danny Green will not be on the championship team this season. :lol

[Dejounte]

Simmons for Dame swap. I’m calling it.

[timtonymanu]

Simmons for Dame swap. I’m calling it.

Would be such an awful trade for Portland.

[R. DeMurre]

I wouldn't be surprised if in two years De'Andre Hunter is the best two way player on the Hawks. They have to feel good about their future, and Cam Reddish hasn't even done anything yet.

[CGD]

Would be such an awful trade for Portland.

Philly would be lucky to get CJ McCollum at this point.
