Barkley just said Boston don't do any of the little things - that's so true.

why are they so bad this year?

the head coach looks like a weak person. why the hell did they give this dude the job? should have got some proven retread coach.


Tatum does light skinned shit, and they don't have the right coach.


they're coach should have called time out 3 diff times when heat were coming back. even reggie miller was saying it on tv. he's basically calling out the celts coach.

Grant Williams getting shit on, but the game changed when the heat finally took Kevin love out of the game. He was getting killed on defense

Just being stubborn at this point? It's pretty clear who the best team in the West is.


The Nuggets are a shitty team on the road. They have been all season.

I know you are a Suns guy. Remind me how the Nuggets looked in their last road game they played.

Normally I would agree. However, Favre Fan's characteristically insolent absolutism in the opposite direction has me thinking an upset is coming in the West.

If you have watched most of these playoff games, who do you think has looked like the best team?

Agree - seems like they have a jump in their step compared to the other teams who seem a step behind

They're the 8th seed. I don't see how anyone could objectively say another team has been better.

Nobody deserves a ring this year more than jimmy. Miami is fire! When Williams got in Jimmy's face I knew it was over. Jimmy has the heart of Jordan there's no question anymore. That guy is gonna go down a legend.

I had the Lakers at +1600 to make the Finals. I felt my Lakers hate would get resolved by me winning money if they won. I've seen this team all season hide in the weeds and then play when they absolutely needed to. Jokic has been played well, Murray on the other hand has been very tough to handle. Lebron is just about cooked but I think he's got 3 more good games left in him. That may be enough.

CP3 and Ayton being out + complete lack of depth + Monty's unwillingness to call a timeout when he pulled Durant towards the end of the 1st quarter, keeping Booker in with an all-bench lineup while watching Denver go on a 17-0 run in a matter of a few minutes = game 6 ass whooping. The Suns are no strangers to ass whoopings in series clinching games recently though. That's why Ishiba is doing what he's doing.

Games 3 and 4 went the Suns way and I think the same thing will happen for the Lakers tonight and Monday. Los Angeles hasn't lost at home since that Bulls game in March.

I was pretty dismissive of the Lakers chances in this WCF. How is that working out?

30 assists and 5 turnovers. Guess Denver is a better road team that some said

Post subject:  Re: NBA PLAYOFFS
why did the lakers coach give up with a min left? He pulled the entire team off while Denver kept everyone. I know they were down like 11 but come on man. Is this a new NBA thing? What's a minute of rest gonna really help you for the next game.

HUSSRA - Is it over or Lakers still got a chance even down 3-0?

It's kinda fun watching LeBron choke in a conference final instead of waiting for him to choke in a NBA final.

He’s a very well compensated role player.

Maybe he can help Austin Reeves get them back in the win column on Monday.

Lakers have em right where they want em? I might wait for Lebron to lose one more before betting any more on the Lakers to take the series tho....at least Baffert's juiced up pony cashed and didn't get DQ'd after--my book even waited forever to pay out post-race, like they were expecting something to change in the results.

I've never seen a player put as much consistent effort and dedication to a sport than him. Tom Brady is the only other guy who has similar tenure. The Lakers shouldn't be in the playoffs at all this year. Dude took so many bums to high levels over his career. I'll never criticize his results.

If he didn't whine and complain about calls as much as he did over his career it would have been nice. But whatever.
