Wolves scoring 80 in 2023 is impressive in its massive failure

Clippers were plus 2200 to get to the Finals. So wish I'd taken that bet to offset my Laker bet.

Barkley was right...Clips wish they'd gone down to the play in game. Suns/Clips is fantastic but those might be the two best teams in the East. Lakers have to like their chances watching one of those two teams get eliminated first round. Without someone to guard AD, Lakers will take the Griz, and would have even if Morant doesn't get hurt.

Lakers will take their foot off the gas and lose the next one. But Memphis doesn't have enough shooting.

I think they're saying that "security" led them through there. Nice, right through allegedly drunken fans of a struggling team.

Ayton having more shots than Durant is inexcusable. Kawhi is a dog. I’m sure Monty figures out an 11 man rotation is not a good idea in the playoffs.

Hell, CP3 had more boards than Ayton.



I love Booker immediately looking to the ref for a foul after he lands and then Russ bouncing it off his dumb ass.

KINGS

KD had what 2 shots in the 4th qtr?

It felt like it. Monty is a great person -- players have nothing but great things to say about him. His coaching though, ever since the Suns were up 2-0 in the Finals, has brought up questions. The Suns depth has been blown a little out of proportion. They've got a few nice role players coming off the bench but you can't afford to strut out 11 guys in a playoff game. Not this roster.

They started off really slow the first quarter, Durant especially. I expect a different outcome and mindset tomorrow.

Warriors-Kings Game Dos should be another fun one tonight.

KD almost had a 30pt triple double, but he still doesn't seem completely back yet.

All of the load management and injury stuff has soured people on Kawhi Leonard but damn is that dude a great player. Has quietly been possibly the best player in the league since Jan. 46% from 3 in that stretch.

He's a dog. I get the feeling Durant's putting up 40+ tonight.

I cannot believe that Phoenix came back last night. KD was looking cooked in the first half. Friday night should be wild.

One of the best games I've ever seen. It's funny when half the league looks like they are good and have talent... Then you watch lenord, Durant, Paul, booker and the likes play at their peak effort. It's absolutely insane. It's so hard to believe the human body can do that stuff.

Sometimes the Lakers look so awful I can’t believe they’re a playoff team.

Memphis often looks better without Ja, hope they keep it up.

Hachimura is a fun watch sometimes.

Lebron trying 30 foot step backs like he’s Curry is fun all the time.

Yep he does. Good Comp. Nothing like a dude that drops 9 points who wants the world to know that he dropped 9 points. Draymond is the master of that!

i just saw that guy doing some idiotic thing to lebron.

that guy and team isn't winning any championships if they got to rely on that high school bully shit.

And I use to like Morant until the whole gun thing came out. If he wants to be a thug or wannabe thug then fuck him. I'm not rooting for that idiot.

this is Memphis's dirty little secret, they really do. 33-17, I think is the record. Ja CAN get so hot sometimes but as a team they're better with slow and steady.

Kings, I may be wrong about that team. We shall see.

Game 3 is tonight

It’s a little silly Brooklyn/Philly, Golden State/Sacramento, Atlanta/Boston, LA/Memphis, New York/Cleveland, and Miami/Milwaukee all get 2 days of rest between Games 2 and 3.

With the Sox blowing chunks and F1 taking a month off, I'm glad the NBA is taking advantage of this dead period.

F1? who the fuck watches that?

Joe

I honestly feel like he doesn't care. He doesn't seem to take even a playoff game seriously
like flippant behind the back passes coming up court like it's a playground game
it has the feel of "i can turn it on when i want/need to", except he can't anymore
