Dolfan in NYC Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Also, fun fact, the Heat have now beaten Cleveland 12 in a row in Miami. I don't know how that's possible, but god damn son. Let's hope the show keeps on going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 So basically we need Boston to lose, Cavs to win in order for Cavs to take the 1 seed. Then we need Pacers to lose, Bulls to win and Miami to win, so we get Miami vs. Cavs and Boston vs. Bulls in the first round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Anyone who is upset with Westbrook's "uncontested" rebounds should look at the numbers so they can see that Harden is also grabbing a ton of uncontested rebounds. Not to mention, it is an OKC strategy where they WANT Westbrook to have the ball immediately because guess what? They are much more efficient when he brings the ball up.

sydneybrown Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 So we are living in a world where 37 year-old Metta World Peace not only led the Lakers in scoring, but they still won the game anyway. Five game win streak after losing 45 of their previous 55 games. This really is the most bizarre winning streak I've seen in a long time. But kudos to Walton for saying "screw tanking" and working with what he's got. Lakers have had three straight years of lottery picks and it's gotten them nowhere. Why is the fourth time suddenly the charm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 The Lakers are desperately trying to tank and they just keep winning. It's hilarious. It's gonna cost them their pick this year and in 2019 and their rebuild is basically dead in the water unless a couple stars get starstruck by Magic.

Brian Fowler Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Oh and speaking of Giannis and insane stat lines this year, he led the Bucks in points, rebounds, assists, blocks and steals. Yup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaedmc Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Nets announced they're resting six players against Chicago. Atlanta is resting five against Indiana. So the Heat's road to the playoffs just got it by a mudslide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Wow. The 20 win Nets, who locked up the most ping pong balls last week, are still tanking. That's fucking commitment. I hope Prokhorov is hit by lightning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Not to get your hopes up but this Bulls team has proven time and time again: If you serve something to us on a silver platter we will find a way to set ourselves on fire with it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 since I've been in the country, Lakers 5/5. Felt bad last night, Metta going hot from outside coincided with the announcement that the Lakers shop was going 1/2 price off everything, and so most of the stadium went outside instead.

Lawful Metal Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I have to admit I was dead wrong about D'Antoni. 55 wins in the west is no joke. The move to point guard for Harden was genius, and even the defense improved from last year. I didn't think much of signing Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon, but that was the right move for D'Antoni's system. And, uh, Harden = MVP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
