    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (2) Denver Nuggets vs (7) LA Lakers

    I’m not saying the refs favored one team or another, I’m just so confused by the calls on reviews. They should probably just get rid of the review if this call and the Lowry call were overturned. I mean what’s the point? It’s a terrible look for the league. Edit - Oh, the Tweet doesn’t make it...

    Also, I mean what are we doing here? Lol boo hoo Lakers and all, but what the fuck? Edit - To make clear, since the Tweet doesn’t mention it, this was called a foul on the floor and OVERTURNED via review. View: https://twitter.com/vkillem/status/1782621073277956139?s=46&t=11SXTvIYT-tl8b6e7iEUVQ

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (2) Denver Nuggets vs (7) LA Lakers

    Jesus guys, read the post. I was talking about the Lakers problem in general, pointed out LeBron was impressive late last night, but also that 2 of the last 3 games he was gassed late and cannot sustain it for 2 months to carry the Lakers to a title because there isn’t enough help around him...

    Maxey actually had the ball there and just handed it over lol. That Lowry flop was sublime, as well.

    Pierce is a huge troll, in the vein of his new mentor, Skip. I think most of the shit he says he doesn't actually believe.

    Yes. He gets gassed more often than not late in games now and absolutely will not last through 2 months of this, even if they made it out of this round.

    Pierce was Porzingis, right?

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (2) Denver Nuggets vs (7) LA Lakers

    The problem for LA is that LeBron is too old and Davis has always had a penchant for disappearing late. They are basically a borderline title contender for the first 3 quarters, but they can’t hang in the end. LeBron’s gear last night was super impressive, but he didn’t carry much of the...

    The Nurse timeout thing was close enough you can’t complain about it imo, but fact is Maxey gets a call 99.9% of the time in the NBA. He was grabbed and then marginal contact with a guy falling is basically always called in that situation. Right/wrong it was just a very different standard than...

    Even if you poke it out first, you can’t grab someone’s wrist with your free hand and rip it from the area of the ball. It’s moot.

    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers

    Another angle to disprove the clear angle where he grabs his wrist and rips his arm from the ball lol. Lowry committed multiple fouls on the play. The overturn was insane. If you want to argue “swallows your whistles and let them play!” I mean I guess, but replay cannot overturn that. It’s...

    Sixers cannot complain after that insane overturn on Lowry’s blatant foul. Wtf was that, anyway? Shit like that legitimately makes the league look doctored. There is zero defense for it.

    Denver has a real shot, but Boston should absolutely be the favorites if it happens and rosters are healthy.
