Yeah, it’d be a shame if that two days of drive-thru therapy went to waste. i’m rooting for the Lakers. I don’t buy that they can win the Western Conference, but it’s one of the more interesting storylines out there.
Contentious C Posted April 16, 2023 Posted April 16, 2023 Herro actually did break his hand, so that: 1) explains why Duncan Robinson is playing and 2) may precipitate a mile of backtracking from a certain someone if Robinson makes some timely shots...
Brian Fowler Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 Yeah that Mil-Miami game was brutal for injuries. 36 minutes ago, Tarheel Moneghetti said: Yeah, it’d be a shame if that two days of drive-thru therapy went to waste. i’m rooting for the Lakers.

Unless it's Boston, they can lose by any means necessary.
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 17, 2023 Author Posted April 17, 2023 Herro's broken hand is 4-6 weeks. So, barring a miracle... yeah.
Contentious C Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 True, but I'm still rooting for the meteor from outer space to win the series in Game 7.
Brian Fowler Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 Westbrook has shot like shit but done everything else well tonight.

Was coming here to say the same thing. He shot the ball like a Suns sleeper agent, but played solid otherwise and came up big down the stretch. That block->snatch-> throw off the other guy’s leg in the last minute was an outstanding play. 1
Contentious C Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) Nikola Jokic is the guy who ended up with the Devil's hands after Fry was done with them. Also, Gobert can't throw a punch, but watch out for his elbows! Edited April 17, 2023 by Contentious C

Seeing lots of people suggest that the NBA make it illegal for help defenders to take charges. Dunno if that's a great suggestion or not but it's definitely not great when you've defenders basically trying to sneak in to get run over. Especially when a Giannis gets hurt on a play that (rightly) wasn't even called a charge.
Brian Fowler Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 Jaren Jackson Jr is DPOY Easily the best defender in the league when he's on the court, I think the only argument against him would be he still gets way too many fouls that keep him on the bench. Brook Lopez is second. He was great this year on defense (and also played 15 more games and nearly 600 more minutes than JJJ) 1
Contentious C Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Cam Johnson just put Embiid on a poster. Small ball is kinda working. Doc has never managed to waste an MVP season, has he? First time for everything? Edited April 18, 2023 by Contentious C
Contentious C Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Are there hedges in Philly? Because Harden and his beard just vanished into the shrubbery tonight. That bodes well.

That bodes well. On the other hand, Philly won fairly easily with Harden not being able to hit a shot and Embiid having a well below average performance as well.
Contentious C Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) It's scary how good Fox is and yet the team doesn't play worse with him on the bench. They just keep running. Plus last year, people never shut the fuck up about the GSW third quarters being the difference makers throughout tough games. SAC has erased or extended a lead in both Q3s thus far, out-Warrioring the Warriors. Edited April 18, 2023 by Contentious C
Brian Fowler Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 On one hand, Green got a tech and might get more. On the other, Sabonis might've just set a world record for shortest time between fucking around and finding out. 2
Contentious C Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Green is such a fucking chucklehead. If I never have to see his bullshit in a game again, it'll be too soon. "Oh, if he were on your team, you'd like his antics"...nope. Fuck that.

"Oh, if he were on your team, you'd like his antics"...nope. Fuck that. I don't condone him stomping a hole in Sabonis... But Sabonis needs some situational awareness there and know that something painful is going to happen if you grab and hold onto the leg of the game's premiere cheap shot artist. 1

In all honesty, Draymond barely had time to load the boot.
blitzkrieg Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Honestly I never really pegged Draymond as the Kevin Sullivan fan.
Travis Sheldon Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Sabonis had every chance to get Draymond in an ankle lock if he had stopped selling for a second.
