Jiji Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 Okay, this Grizz/Wolves game is the equivalent of a mid '00s indie match with two raw prospects that fuck around for 12 minutes with tonnes of botches but put together one helluva finishing stretch. 2

It feels like I'm watching the very first few matches between Danielson and Punk, and that they're going to be in my life for a very long time. 1
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 27, 2022 Author Posted April 27, 2022 Alex Caruso has a concussion, so he's out tonight. Zach LaVine has COVID, so he's out tonight too. Pictured: Giannis after the game tonight. 2
Zimbra Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 Fuuuuuck, Khris Middleton has an MCL sprain and will be out for at least the second round and probably the ECF if it comes to that.
Contentious C Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 Bucks/Celtics is going to be one of those bowling shoe-ugly late 90s defensive slugfests. Pat Riley and Jeff Van Gundy are probably going to spend most of the series at home with a bottle of lotion and some Kleenex. 3
Tabe Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 Chris Paul possibly looking at some punishment after he kicked a 40yd field goal on a dude's balls while flailing on a jump shot. Personally, I'd like to see that get a multi-game suspension but I doubt he gets more than a fine.
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 28, 2022 Author Posted April 28, 2022 Speaking of fines. Jimmy got $15k for doing this during Game 5. The Heat organization also got fined because they made a gif of it and put it on their Twitter. I seriously have no words...

Zimbra Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 Chris Paul got 33 on 14/14 shooting tonight, a playoff record. At age 37, as a small guard. Insane.

That game was fantastic. It had just about everything. I'm in love with the Pelicans now. Bridges is one of the best players in the league. He locked down Ingram back to back games. I really need to see the Suns and Warriors in a 7 game series.
Hail Sabin Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 A Travel call & a missed wide open 3 Pointer, but the Mavs Playoff Series drought is finally over!

I really hope we at some point get to see this Pelicans team with a healthy and in shape Zion. Could be one of the most fun teams of all-time, and also maybe a legit contender. 2

Herb Jones is a fantastic defender and while I think teams will eventually be able to abuse Alvarado like the Suns did at times with Booker by getting switches on him and exposing his lack of size, he's a blast to watch. They need a true point guard I think and they have Jones, Ingram, and Zion. CJ seems like a nice guy but I don't think you win with a guy like him taking up a huge chunk of your cap.
S.K.o.S. Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 This was on a play where Siakam elbowed Embiid in the face with the Sixers up by 29 with under 4 minutes left in the game. (Kind of a wild sequence of events - it was originally called a foul on Embiid, referees reviewed it themselves and upheld their call, then Doc Rivers challenged the call, they reviewed it AGAIN and then reversed it to an offensive foul. Again, all with the game already decided at that point.)
Kuetsar Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 What the hell was he still doing out on the court? Doc rivers everybody.
Greggulator Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 The Sixers messed around too much with the basketball gods when The Process started and are doomed. This team has become a good team despite themselves. Up 20+ that late with the MVP who also happens to be the most injury prone dude in the league... 1
