Coach snyders hair tho.. I always knew he had an inner psycho.

I dont think I have seen any player on either team jubilate in any way. These guys have zero joy

Bring on the Nets. That's a matchup made in heaven.

Looks like the Bucks are gonna have at least 5 days before they play game 1 of the semis. Vital rest if you ask me. Crucial for the healing of those niggles and bumps.

Honestly wouldda preferred the celtics for the bucks but......... the nets are vulnerable obviously, their D is still terrible especially with Griffin starting at the 5. Expecting a bucks win though

I'm very sure we'll see plenty of DeAndre Jordan in that series, because they still have to worry about Lopez. And KD doesn't want that Giannis smoke.

A two time defensive player who would forever be remembered for his mentoring of big men in the league. He was quite instrumental in the growth and development of Rudy Gobert.

The Knicks offense is extremely static, they are not playing to their strength either.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 9:11pm On May 30, 2021
The refs should have called that violation on LeBum.. you can’t pass to your self Na..

I doubt oo with Blake they have more spacing and more shooting, that's y he's starting over Dj... But bucks in 6 sha. Cos trust me the Ego would start to show sooner than later. Against celtics you see the blame game on kyrie abi? Dem just dey start. Make celtics do mistake even that series then the real Identity problem on that Nets team would show up.
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 9:42pm On May 30, 2021
The refs don't want to call fouls for the Lakers today. Nice job CP grin

Not saying he'll play more minutes than Blake though. He'll get good minutes is all I'm saying.

The Suns are more composed and weathering the different storms the Lakers have thrown.

AD’s injury definitely changes everything in this series and the Lakers going forward. Their perimeter scoring has to come alive somehow!

Ayton now free to play bully ball. Lakers are flustered.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:01pm On May 30, 2021
The Suns have ramped up the pace with some good transition basketball.
Re: The NBA Begins by Android17: 10:03pm On May 30, 2021
KD is a walking bucket and all that but has he made a mistake with these Nets? He still gets his but everything seems forced. Too much heroball. If they keep up with It, the Celts will even take them to 6 or 7 and the Bucks will beat them.

Ayton has been their most consistent player on both ends. The Lakers are struggling to keep pace and Ayton is chewing them up inside.

Without AD, they have to bring in Gasol to space the floor.

Sometimes rest during the post season is counter productive, it affects chemistry. The Bucks sweeping the Heat is great but experienced heads inside the locker room will be hoping the Nets finish up their series against my Celtics sooner. The longer that series goes on the more chemistry and intune the Big 3 Nets will be heading to the next round. These cats are professionals, they can play basketball all day bro.. I see it during the summer.

Big Bummer: AD is out for the rest of the game with a groin injury. Just when he picked up!
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:26pm On May 30, 2021
The Suns have to play like the scoreboard does not exist in the 4th.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:31pm On May 30, 2021
Payne has played with so much courage.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:33pm On May 30, 2021
The Lakers go small with McLemore and Harrell
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:45pm On May 30, 2021
They should have at least taken a look at that..
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:46pm On May 30, 2021
If you are the Lakers you have to go with Gasol if AD is a scratch going forward.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:53pm On May 30, 2021
The Lakers have the momentum. They have ramped up their defense by picking them up early as the Suns looks to eat the clock.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:54pm On May 30, 2021
In the words of Mike Breen “Bang! Bang!!”
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:57pm On May 30, 2021
Booker has to play better.. He has not imposed himself in this series as much as I anticipated.
Re: The NBA Begins by etidy: 10:57pm On May 30, 2021
It may sound like a knee jerk reaction but the lakers are not coming out of the west this season. GUARANTEED IN BARKLEY'S VOICE grin
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 11:00pm On May 30, 2021
Considering how they lost game 3 this is a big victory for the Suns especially since they are away..
Re: The NBA Begins by donlittle25: 11:00pm On May 30, 2021

You are right. I guess I was just being knee-jerk but I struggled to enjoy the game. They were playing like the "dribble brothers" that Chuck Barkley said they will be.

Norman normal.

But I don't think we lost this game because of AD's absence. Although him going down put a dent on their spirit. There's always this despondence that comes when one of your best players gets injured in a game. By the time they realised they were actually not that bad without AD it was already too late.

We'll start game 5 without him and I believe we'll be better prepared.
