    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (3) Minnesota Timberwolves vs (6) Phoenix Suns

    Yeah.. I guess you can just run into a guy twice and if they react in any way it's on them? Seems dumb.

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

    For every one of these you could have multiple clips of LeBron or AD barely getting touched and getting FTs. This game wasn’t lost on a few non calls.. lakers missed a bunch of shots late and LeBron being almost peak LeBron almost won it for them… he was a beast in the 4th.. his supporting cast...

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

    Then you have to stay up til the end of the second half to see the Nuggets come back and win..

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

    Yeah.. to say that was 'all clean'.. tell me you're a Knicks fan without telling me you're a Knicks fan. Edit: Brunson grabbed Maxey so that he couldn't get away clean before the trap...where he was definitely fouled a few times.. especially if that last 'foul' on the Maxey layup/rebound was a...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Not sure how much he had to do with them almost winning.. and not sure when he got hurt.. but he had 9 points in the second half and 2 in the fourth.. His teammates tried to pick up the slack as he looked pretty hobbled.. at times he looked like more of a decoy in the corner.

    I think it may be the most underrated team of all time.. basically as good as any Celtics team ever.. and they’re getting zero recognition for it. Tatum behind 6 guys? Ok.. sure.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    I didn't see that at all.. would have to go back and look but Bam had a hand in his face all day. He was hitting fadeaways, but I thought KP did a lot to contest. Bam did post him up a few times, but IMO that's not going to get it done all game. He can't be the primary scorer on a winning...

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (1) Oklahoma City Thunder vs (8) New Orleans Pelicans

    It's just that it feels even.. I think every other series had a 10-20 point lead or more? New Orleans has a little experience playing without Zion so it's slightly familiar territory to them. This series would be more fun if he were out there though. edit: that may be currently changing.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    So.. you're thought is that the Celtics ...up over 30 points... just weren't mentally tough enough to maintain that lead and they let the Heat back in the game to close it to 20 by the end? it was a 15-2 run for several reasons: 1. This kind of stretch happens ALL OF THE TIME in the current...

    Bucks starters also stayed in until the end up 20

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    Definitely agree. He's going to be more of an issue in a few years... or maybe this is the player he'll be.. but right now he's definitely limited. But he is a good active body and takes it to the rim a lot.. also doesn't seem to lack for confidence, for better or worse. Jaylen needs to just...

    Jaquez was an exception... he was pretty aggressive all game it felt.

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    I think Herro as a number one scoring option vs number 2 with Butler on the floor is a pretty significant difference. In the regular season the Celts couldn't concentrate as much of their defense on Herro. Felt like today he wasn't getting almost any open shots. The defender that usually...

    I'm just hoping they win the next three by twenty (I know unlikely).. any closer and my angst starts getting uncomfortable

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    I like how Tatum responded to it.. he's been very good in his career with not going after the player after a hard foul (at least as far as I remember).. feels like it deflates the situation and doesn't give the other player any advantage by getting into his head. Just goes and takes the FTs.
