    I also think Brogdon’s injury was important.. without his scoring there was a lot more pressure on the Js to step up .. feel like Brogdon was helping a lot with second units until he couldn’t hit any shots anymore, especially with his defense.there were a whole host of factors that had to go...

    And has been gone over many times.. JM basically getting thrown into the season without his own assistants was pretty key as well. I also think if White had been allowed to take some of Marcus’ minutes that maybe the playoffs would have gone a little differently. As it was, it’s still a really...

    It’s kind of the reverse of last year.. where Denver had the much easier path and the East was a rock fight.. although the Celts got in their own way a lot last year as well.

    Hartenstein is going to be problem for Embiid and Philly if Embiid can't box out or defend down low.

    Fair points.. but it’s a bridge too far for me to try and see this game as a positive going forward against the Knicks. Miami was the 8 seed for a reason and without Rozier they were even worse.. Philly did come back but I think you could argue they should never have been down that much to...

    They won by one in a game where Butler was completely hobbled down the stretch. Butler stood in the corner on several possessions and was basically a decoy.. so only Herro was basically shooting.. and he was left wide open a few times. For as good a coach as Spoelstra is.. not sure why he...

    Batum pushes Herro to cerate a backcourt and Doris and Breen think it's hilarious that nothing was called.

    I suppose then the question would be why any player would shoot when their teammate is on a heater.

    Is Butler's main role to be a decoy in the corner? Didn't move at all that offensive possession
