Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 4:20am On May 19, 2023 |
donlittle25:You had Muppets like Nick Wright and JJ Redick talking noise about how Game 1 was a loss that felt like a win. I was just laughing like. For playoffs? Does it matter if you lose by 1 or 100? Any adjustments or whatever that didn't lead to a win is essentially a waste because you've shown your hand to the other team and gotten their attention. Now the Nuggets have led wire to wire and then come back from a game they trailed for 3 quarters and won 2 close games. What difference would it have made if they lost both by 40. As it is the Nuggets now know they're in a dogfight and have handled the adversity that the Warriors failed to. Anyway I want to see what those jokers in the media would say later 2 Likes 1 Share |

Khanben:Yeah I understand it but what ultimately wins is a steady dose of both. The Warriors were the first jump shooting team to breakthrough but what happened when they jam agbako? They had to go and get KD. The Rockets could not beat the Warriors because they were the knock off version of the Warriors whereas the Raptors and Cavs succeeded. Even last year Wiggins is an inside scorer that brought balance. Most teams have 1 or 2 shooters that don't need to be Curry level just be competent at it. A guy like Dame is still going to need an interior scorer that can get buckets on nights the 3 ain't falling 1 Like |

Jokic is playing PG in this series while Murray is the shooting guard. Every time they rebound the ball, Jokic is initiating the offense, pushing offense which is quite difficult to defend because he is an exceptional passer. The Lakers switched between sagging deep to playing high but it did not matter. This game would have been over earlier if Murray made his buckets in the first 3Qs. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Incredible from Murray in the 4th. 23 points Just saw that this is his 4th 20point 4th quarter. To do that after that terrible first half you gotta respect that mental strength that most players just don't have. I mean we were killing him here too but his response mehn 1 Like |

Interestingly he's never been an Allstar. This is quite a crazy stat. Zero all star, zero all NBA. |

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 6:55am On May 19, 2023 |
Khanben:Yeah understandably so but still an uncanny stat considering this is his 7th season. In the future when people look back they might say Jokic won without an Allstar but anyone who saw Jamal play would that be an accurate assessment to make? This is why too much stock can be put on regular season awards sometimes. Just like Jimmy Dude goes up from 17 to 24ppg and then on the other side you had frauds like Harden and Embiid that go from 30+ points to 24 or less 1 Like 1 Share |

If this Meerkat loses tonight, he shouldn't bother traveling to Miami. He finds creative ways to get in the way of the team. How Pritchard got minutes ahead of G. Williams is beyond me. Don't get me wrong, I am a strong advocate for Pritchard but he did not even make a shot attempt and was targeted by the Heat every time he was on the court which cost us valuable points. G. Williams is a better defender and can also knock down the corner 3 ball. The annoying part of it all is his useless ego on the podium but of course my darling Boston Media gave it to him "woto woto" after the game 1 loss. 1 Like

A40:No lies chief, The heat gat the dawg in them despite being inferior personnel wise to the Celtics but I feel the latter hasn't been playing to their best this playoffs, they had no business dragging the Philadelphia tie to 7 before finishing them off, Udoka won't have taken the heats jejely As for those yeye Barca boys, the mental block you talked about resurfaced again na, Last year we were favorites and choked too, Yabusele was out this year after his ban for suplexing Exum in the partizan game meaning we had more leeway defensively but we collected our koboko as usual, Mirotic of all people starting finding it hard to hit buckets, Hopefully we don't renew Saras's deal after this season |
