It is sad to see good 3 point shooters like J. Harris (Nets) and D. Robinson (Heat) decline badly...

The Clippers contain the Suns very well in spite of Kawhi and PG13 missing. Talk about one of the deepest team in the league. Too bad they never really got a shot at playing with their full squad healthy (except maybe in the the Bubble)
Re: The NBA Begins by Afromentalist: 10:30pm On Apr 22, 2023
Clippers are trying but KD and Booker are just too much firepower.

Westbrook despite a reasonably good showing is not the highest IQ point guard either.
Re: The NBA Begins by Afromentalist: 10:38pm On Apr 22, 2023
Damm Westbrook is on fire!
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:39pm On Apr 22, 2023
Westbrook is keeping the Clippers in this game with an efficient display.

This is why they brought the Slimreaper to the Suns..Make I hear anybody say the Slimreaper doesn't play defense.

Love seeing the Slimreaper with Wanda...a proud Nubian Queen!

I feel sorry for the Clippers, they have been quite unlucky with injuries. Every year, they go into the playoffs with a deep roster but injuries always cost them any chance of advancing.

The Clippers are cursed. No other natural way to explain it.

They're the only team for a fact that I know can stop the Lakers in the West, maybe it was ordained for the Lakers to go all the way especially with Ja also injured and all the matchups aligning in their favor
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 2:16am On Apr 23, 2023
I agree with the ESPN studio that if this was a must win, Giannis would be on the floor. I think the Bucks want to get Giannis enough rest from his back injury.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:28am On Apr 23, 2023
I am disappointed T. Jenkins in consecutive post seasons has allowed D. Brooks dominate and control the narratives of his team.

This man is not your best player, isnโ€™t exactly a great defender or knock down shooter but somehow he is about to get you out of the playoffs!

Also, Ja shouldnโ€™t have started this game, he is obviously unable to help this team because of his injury.

If I am Grizzlies fan, I am calling out Jenkins!
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 4:19am On Apr 23, 2023
Lol if the Lakers play to their abilities this should not be a close series.

People really tried to con us to thinking Desmond Bane, Jaren Jackson and Dillon Brooks are favorites in a series with Lebron James, Anthony Davis and DeAngelo Russell on the other side. Even if charlatans on TV are selling such snake oil are you supposed to buy?


Cale Makar. That boy is supernova talent

And Pavlovich. Jon Jones better watch out. That Russian boy looking like a threat

Man Menphis are a scary opposition. They just keep coming at you. If not for our good start this game would have ended in tears for us. Even an unfit Ja is dropping 45 on our head, talk more of a fit one. I hope we play better in game 4 if not it's 2-2 and back to Memphis.

And for LeBron, it's safe to say he's old. He doesn't impact the game as he used to. He scores points but more often than not you can't really feel the impact of those points. The efficiency has gone down mostly because he's taking too many threes. The IQ is there and the mind is willing but the body is letting him down. Look at the open dunk he missed today. He's also missing layups. For us to have any chance in this series or the rest of the playoffs, AD has to be our best player. You could see in game 2 that just a little more production on the offensive end and we could have won that game.

I hope so, because Memphis is coming back with a vengeance. I can feel it with the way they played the last 3 quarters of this game.

How can points not have impact. Everyone knows Lebron can't control a game the way he used to say 5 yrs ago, but to say 25pts on very good efficiency more often than not does not have any impact is reaching.
There're very few winning teams in history where what Lebron is doing right now would not make him at the very least the 2nd best player on said team.

PS: Even in his prime Lebron missed dunks, every single player in history has missed dunks, and layups.
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 3:37pm On Apr 23, 2023
Is it me or is Westbrook somehow playing well enough that you can excuse any of his inevitable mistakes. The dude might end up getting good money in FA if one GM, thinks he can do what he his doing now for a whole season.
