This play in game should definitely be interesting

I like the play in concept. I think Memphis forces a game tomorrow.

Memphis zero fts in 4th with 2:39 left. Portland with over 10.

When he was injured earlier in the year and wearing a blazer/sweater combo my wife and I started referring to him as the smartest dressing lesbian in the NBA. Now we just call him Ellen whenever he is on the court.

But, all that said, he has been one of the pleasant surprises of the bubble. He has played very well. Gotta give him props when he deserves them. Hit a ton of 3s and also drove the ball, played defense, expanded minutes. This is a guy who a year ago looked like he would be out of the league after his contract expired.

I was really looking forward to a healthy Celtics-Sixers series. Nuggets-Jazz, Thunder-Rockets, and Lakers-Blazers should be the best of the 1st round bunch.

not so sure about Nuggets-Jazz. Denver has looked good with the emergence of MPJ and to a lesser extent Tako Fall. They're without Will Barton, but don't appear to be missing him too much. On the other hand, Utah doesn't look so hot without Bogdonavich. Plus Conley just left the bubble yesterday to have a baby. He'll be back , but will have to quarantine for 4 days so who knows how much of the series he will be around for.

I wouldn't be surprised if Denver made quick work of Utah.

I'm hoping LAC vs DAL is a great series, but there's a chance LAC could run over those guys as well. Not a great matchup for Luka with PG and KL taking turns defending him all series.

Goddamn what a show Mitchell and Murray are putting on

Very good game between Denver and Utah. Jamal Murray and Mitchell are going at it down the stretch. Mitchell has about 50.

Denver is having a hard time handling dribble penetration for the second year in a row. With Porter Jr and Jokic on the floor not to mention Murray, Mitchell is making mincemeat out of them on D

Mitchell is gassed

This game is giving me '09 Bulls-Celtics vibes.

dammit...i understand the necessity of playing playoff games on a weekday afternoon under these circumstances but it still sucks for those of us who have to work

Wonder how much Mitchell's eight second violation factored into the loss. Up four with less than two minutes. Then you take your time walking it up the court and all of a sudden Murray drills a three in your face. Big turnover.

That probably was the biggest play of the game.

get a DVR.

I worked till 4, didn't check the score and just watched the entire game.

_________________

Interesting to see MPJ get benched in the second half and OT. He was a turnstyle on defense and wasn't hitting shots.


Also, Jokic completely wilted in the second half and OT. Looked like he wanted nothing to do with the basketball.

these two east games today are garbage. No Simmons? No thank you. Looking forward to the main event tonight. Luka's playoff debut vs a stacked Clippers team. I think Harrell is back tonight.

Yea I’m looking forward to that one too
Sixes suck

Close game.

_________________

Guess defense isn't played in the NBA anymore....a period toward the end of the half in the Denver / Utah game very reminiscent of a game at the Y

I'm going to bounce from the spot for awhile but I will be back at some point to argue with you about this hoops stuff again. Playoffs have been great this season. See ya up the road.

I'm out.

Starting to get a little chippy in this Philly Boston game.

Dont think that’s true. He’s too good for that already.

So far he is struggling.

That’s relative. He’s on pace for 44 points and 12 assists
