2022 NBA Playoffs Gamethread

[Ale Xander]

He missed!!!!

 

[Ale Xander]

Dude?

 

[Ale Xander]

Unnecessary cup check!

 

[Just a bit outside]

Dragic is a dirty player. Fuck that guy.

 

[McBride11]

How did the announcers even think was was knee on knee? He cupped his balls

 

[benhogan]

good call, he made a fist...I've had enough of these "take fouls", NBA needs to legislate it out

 

[djbayko]

Goran Dragic with the suspect ballhandling.

 

[HomeRunBaker]

LFG Cavs!!! They believe why can’t we????

 

[TripleOT]

Get Lauri out of there

 

[The Social Chair]

Lauri with a stinker for the ages.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Can we get Mobley in for Lauri.

 

[Ale Xander]

Get Lauri out of there

 

[The Social Chair]

That feels like the end of the Cavs run.

 

[benhogan]

how is Lauri playing more minutes than Love with the playoffs on the line???

 

[TripleOT]

14 points on 23 shots in 59 minutes for starters, Okoro, Levert, and Markkanen the wimp.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Get Lauri out of there

Looked like he got held up by an illegal screen. Not that he is fast or savvy enough to make anyone notice.

 

[Ale Xander]

Ok he can stay

 

[McBride11]

That feels like the end of the Cavs run.

They get at least 1 more game

 

[HomeRunBaker]

This team is playing with a Love-Lauri-Osman frontline. Your Cleveland Cavaliers…..sponsored by White-Out.

 

[The Social Chair]

They get at least 1 more game

I meant tonight.

The Cavs defense is so bad without Allen

 

[Ale Xander]

Wakefield dude

 

[TripleOT]

5 fouls on Kyrie

 

[dhellers]

Would the celts average 30+ points a quarter against this fearsome Nets D?

It’s no Bird Mchale Walton

 

[Ale Xander]

Stuffed

back to 6

 

[McBride11]

Kyrie at 5? Attack

 

[Ale Xander]

Getting beat by Brown-Claxton sucks

 

[Ale Xander]

Playoff Rondo!

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Rondo battling down low

 

[djbayko]

I'll take a Kyrie charge right now.

 

[benhogan]

the big, bad Nets...bring em on

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

I loathe Durant, but he’s just so fucking good

 

[Ale Xander]

Jayz must be a Clippers fan

 

[The Social Chair]

The Cavs keep blowing layups against Kyrie's awful defense.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Celtics in 6.

 

[Euclis20]

the big, bad Nets...bring em on

No kidding. Kyrie goes nuclear, the Cavs are playing mediocre at best, and it's still a game with 4 minutes left?

 

[TripleOT]

The Cavs twice had the opportunity to take layups on Kyrie, and failed both times. This should have been a one possession game.

 

[benhogan]

Celtics in 6.

Gentlemen sweep. Nets will get one game at home on a Durant 50 piece

 

[Toe Nash]

It won't matter, but a pretty classic Kyrie play was him jogging down the court with like 4:30 left and not realizing that Markkanen had no one on front of him until it was too late and he got an easy dunk. Celtics will beat them in 5 because they don't give up easy buckets and they'll take advantage of Brooklyn lapses.

 

[McBride11]

Rondo doing his job

 

[Ale Xander]

That’s a horrible shot by Mobley

 

[k-factory]

God…Cleveland is so terrible.

 

[McBride11]

Have they announced what time Bos - Bkn Sun?

 

[shawnrbu]

“We want Boston!” chant.

 

[SteveF]

I heard 3:30. But that's not official, just a rumor.

 

[HomeRunBaker]

“These guys are gassed!”

What? These guys look like they could play a second game.

 

[Ale Xander]

Pathetic

 

[k-factory]

Contrary to the hype I’m going to bet the Hawks give the Heat more problems than the Nets give the Celtics

 

[djbayko]

Cavs have done a shit job defending the pick and roll all game.

 

[dhellers]

Contrary to the hype I’m going to bet the Hawks give the Heat more problems than the Nets give the Celtics

Could be. Atlanta ended the season on a +60% pace.
