Thank you. And let’s be honest, they’d have literally no chance against Denver without Tatum or with this Tatum and with a hobbled Rob. Just really fucking unfortunate that happened. Tatum has been an iron man all playoffs and just bad luck the first play of the game.
So you want another 10-12 years at the bottom of the league hoping for ping pong ball luck?
Yeah, I don’t really even see the case for Butler frankly…he’s clearly the overall playoff MVP but Martin was very much the Key for them in this series.
I said Tatum sucked this game and people pooped their pants.
Jesus fucking Christ, dude. Butler’s got twice as many points today. Tatum couldn’t hit a cow in the ass with a shovel. Sucks that he hurt his ankle.
Brown is not getting traded. It’s ludicrous to suggest. They would never get equal value.
Good. I know you’re a JB guy. I used to be. His presence on this team is why I didn’t follow it for 6 months. And if he gets a super max I think I’m done with the Cs. Which is a shame, but it is what it is.
This is a sane take. Saying Tatum is faking the injury which occurred on the first play and noticeably affected him all game is insane troll behavior.
What is your position on Joel Embiid after these playoffs? How about Durant? Giannis? Are they not top 5 guys either because they came up short?
I think it is making him feel better. Only explanation. We’re cheaper than therapy?
This. If people want to be ticked off , be ticked off at the team that played games 1-3. They left themselves no margin for error or injury. And both happened tonight.
Of course it's hard to beat a team 4 times in a row. But they didn't need to do that tonight. They needed to win ONE game. At HOME. If the shoe was on the other foot, why wasn't Miami exhausted with no legs? They were absolutely trying to eliminate Boston in games 4, 5, and 6, and lost in crushing fashion. How did THEY have all kinds of spring in their step tonight? It wasn't a fatigue thing. It was a "they were good and we sucked, plus Tatum got hurt on the first play of the game" thing.
Every new shitty arena filled with fans 100 miles from the action is exactly the same. There's no home court advantage these days.
That isn’t exactly what you said. If you said Tatum sucked tonight then no one even says anything to you. You shit all over Tatum and got the attention you were seeking.
He scored an NBA record 51 points to win a game 7 two weeks ago.
Love the TL. But running him back out there with Horford at center next year, and we will be singing the same sad song when he gets hurt. It's not a question of if, just when.
That’s my point. Todays NBA forces you to pay him. That’s why Harden keeps getting paid.
Right? I've never understood it. I'd rather lift someone up than try to piss people off for no reason
