I didnt watch the game but looking at the box score, this win makes me nervous. Gordon went off. Westbrook went off. But on the Lakers side no one other than lebron and AD did much. This wont happen for 4 games in 7
You too dey fear. I hope your Rockets are not as fearful as you. You guys have a lot more depth than the Blazers, play better defense and so stand a much better chance. The Lakers are still favorites but it will be very naïve of them to believe these Rockets are anything like the Blazers

Anyway I have given the recipe for winning this series. Less spamming of 3's by Harden and Westbrook taking <20 shots per game.

Make Lakers go dey prepare for Game 2. If Eric Gordon is balling like MJ then all hope is lost for the Lakers. You can't have all 3 balling

Lakers can't stop a nosebleed right now. You can't be trading Buckets with this rocket team whose guards are all in their bag tonight. Their size being nullified completely

See how efficient Harden looks when he's not spamming 3's. Really unless you're Steph or Klay you shouldn't be taking more than 5 3's a game in key playoff battles as the #1 scoring option

Giannis has not performed this post season. He has been very poor, there is 2 ways to put it. We have been very hard on the others but Giannis has not showed up.
It's almost like Giannis has checked out mentally. I'm not seeing that alpha dog mentality at all. Too much coach coach instead of focusing on his own weaknesses. He's been all over the place, perhaps he has seen that this thing pass him power and wants to japa.

The Raptors needed a win down 0-2, so Nick Nurse played Kyle Lowry 46 minutes, OG Anunoby 45 minutes, and Fred VanVleet 41 minutes.

The Bucks needed a win down 0-2, so Mike Budenholzer played Giannis Antetokounmpo (soon-to-be two-time MVP) 35 minutes ... again.
Only God knows what he's keeping Giannis for. Maybe there's another postseason that we don't know about. A bit bizarre that he and Middleton sat for 12 full minutes

I won't put the loss down to Giannis's minutes today though. They were up 12 entering the 4th but somehow contrived to score 13 points the entire 4th quarter. They couldn't get a free throw because everyone was too pussy to go hard in the paint.

I don't see the use of a Bledsoe or Middleton especially Middleton if he can't go get a bucket in a tight half court game like this (since we already know Giannis na liability) The Bucks had nobody who could go 3 straight possessions on offense. Nobody wanted the smoke

Should have been a season to make another record making deal and see what Dembele, Coutinho and Griezmann brings to the table. Coutinho and Griezmann turn 29 and 30 next season btw. A pity they are too scared to hand the keys of the team to players they bought for 9 figures.

This Bucks team na fraud though. While the game was close their collective buttcheeks was tightening you could tell no one wanted the smoke. Such a fraud of a team. The minute the Heat went on that run they folded. All of them

Abeg, Warriors had Mark Jackson before Steve Kerr and there was a big difference. What was he doing before he became the head coach? Steve Nash deserves every chance he gets. He's a highly cerebral player and isn't new to coaching. Just let things be.
I listed like 5 black coaches who got jobs with little or no coaching experience. Nobody cried privilege when David Blatt was schemed out of the job and it was given to Ty Lue. When Magic won his first title and ran the coach out of town.

You have the Pacers, Bulls, Pelicans, Sixers still looking for coaches. What's the whining about?

How many black coaches can we confidently point out have acquitted themselves well enough in their respective jobs? How many were given opportunities that didn't disappoint? Is it Gentry? Is it Fisher? Kidd? Brown? Isiah Thomas? Which of them didn't fail

Abeg these people will not focus on real problems and would rather whine and lament

That Gasol situation is one of those mysteries we'll be discussing for a long time. Gasol ?
But just look at it from my perspective, 0.5 seconds left; you have to make a pass over a 7 footer to the whole other side ; OG has to connect with it and shoot a 3 pointer before the buzzer. The odds man, the odds.
This is Kyle Lowry a 14 year vet. I'm sure that's not new to him. In plays like that all you really hope for is the ability to get up a shot. If it's now wide open again then even better. If you're wide open and uncontested there is a 40% chance you hit the shot which is more than enough

Boathand was not rated by the World football ruling body, FIFA, because he is a sh1tty defender. He is never a football legend unlike Terry and Ramos. cool

In the ideal world, should Steve Nash get a call up for the job before Mark Jackson?

The only reason he was signed is because of his relationship with KD.
What was Mark Jackson's coaching experience when he was hired by Golden State?

What was Jason Kidd's experience? Derek Fisher nko?

Whatever reason he was signed it's a valid one. The NBA is a player's league so if your star man says he prefers this guy as a GM it's better you give him that guy

I say the Raptors try that move again and they'll miss it 9 out of 10. It's just one of those things. Something had to go right for them in this series.
Omo. If you give a capable shooter a wide open look it's more like 6 or 7 out of 10. Tatum and Brown were really dumb trying to double a plodding Gasol and abandoning Anunoby in the corner.

SAS has a point. Steve Nash has no coaching experience. There are other viable candidates for that position. I.e Mark Jackson, Ty lue etc but we know how things work in America.

Luke Walton did a terrible job with the lakers and he got a Job with the kings within minutes of him getting fired.

Black coaches aren’t usually afforded such luxury.
Coaching experience is overrated. What experience did Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich have? Kerr nko. The truth is if you're good you're good. Besides talent is 80% of the job if we're being honest.

What makes Ty Lue more viable? We saw how terrible he was when Bron left

Derek Fisher with no experience got a 5 year deal.

Mike Fizdale, Byron Scott, Monty Williams,Mike Brown, Paul Silas all got multiple opportunities despite not being exceptional at their first stops.

This is Steve Nash FFS not some random white P.E teacher.

Black coaches definitely get opportunities in the NBA. People need to stop this false narrative and stop blaming every damn thing on race
