Woof Celtics.

Woof Celtics.

Yeah. What the fuck is up with that?

They better bring it harder than that against the Wolves in the Finals!

[somuchyummy]

Heat had a +33 points over the Celts on three pointers. That's insurmountable.

How does Boston allow that to happen? They got really solid defenders. Did you watch the game?

[A$$MAN]

Anyone else watching the OKC/Pels game? Is there some kind of no standing rule in that arena? I swear that is the lamest crowd ever...99% of the time they are just sitting there unmoving. It's fucking creepy and looks fake.

[PanicWolf]

They planted some plastic surgery laden women behind the pelicans bench unless those are zions.

[PanicWolf]

I’ve been at the games, wolves games look different than that okc crowd? Reggie was just praising it but he also questioned whether the lakers should make 2 free throws to go up by 4 or make one and have the pelicans try to tie with a 3.

apparently the gameplan was to leave some guys open caleb martin went 5/6, but couple other guys who hit are 39% shooter (hero, jacquez). mostly just a hot night but C's had the lead at half and 101 pts is not a strong offensive showing either. Bost scored 120.6ppg in the reg season and 123.1 at home....

[weimy froob]

not a particularly competitive game in OKC last night.

[Moses Scurry]

Kind of sad, but I don't think K-Love should even be on an NBA roster at this point, unless he's an incredible locker room guy.

[focker]

We could really use the Lakers winning a game or two in that series man... Can they win at least 1 game? What are everyone's thoughts there?

can they? sure, they should have won game 2, but a) stopped getting Davis the ball b) kept letting Denver get easy shots late, c) couldn't corral a loose ball turnover leading to the big porter 3.
will they? probably not. Denver just owns them and its getting ridiculous. you would think a team with Lebron and AD couldn't lose to a team 10x in a row but here we are.

Agreed 100%. I think they may win 1 game in LA, just because the refs will probably have them shoot 45 free throws.

he still can do damage. 16/7 in 12 minutes against the Bulls on Apr 19th. 16/11 with 4 threes in 18 mins against the Mavs on Apr 10th. 12 of 28 (43%) over the last ten games.

[shoteh]

ouch, hope PHX isnt like ORL on their home court.

[boxter432]

Home teams 2-0 for game threes.
Go lakers and then we can be the first to go 3-0
Then go Pels so we can be the only 3-0

[mnbob70]

Embid 19-21 FT

[LordNu]

ouch, hope PHX isnt like ORL on their home court.

That was deplorable. 40 point loss in a playoff game? Crazy.

[ChrisPaulGeorgeHill]

Fuck Embiid.

Did anyone see this punk ass bitch’s dirty foul on Mitch Robinson?

Embiid is laying on the floor and dangerously WINDS UP, SWIPES, AND GRABS Robinson’s right leg as he goes up in the air.

There is no fucking way that was less than a flagrant 2. He should have been thrown out of the game.



Fuck Philly, fuck the refs and fuck this tard.

That was one of several dirty plays by him in the game, he also kicked him in the balls later in the game.

yup and refs allow it with 21 fts. He should be suspended a game or two imo. I hope Thibs say something about this cuz I would be pissed if I was Thibs.

[twolves31]

Oh Dlo, gives the Lakers hope last game and scores...0 points tonight. I was really hoping the Lakers could pull out a few games against Denver to tire them out.

[Catalyst]

Lakers are toast. If we have any worse than a 5 game series we are going to be tired to go against Denver. We need to get this done.

[boxter432]

Den is unstoppable if AG has a big game bc it either means he is cutting and getting dunks so Joker and team finds him, or he's grabbing tons of O rebs and putting it right back in. dude can't really shoot or create his own shot (relative to other NBA players, obviously he can to an extent) so him getting 29 means things went bad for Lakers.

watched all of den/lakers games trying scout den for a potential 2nd round matchup and lakers played with no sense of urgency like the wolves did our first two games. Other than AD and Lebron for some spurts they were mostly casually dribbling, casually defending, casually going for rebounds. Pretty much being Dlo's out there. They held multiple double digit leads and casually gave it back.

Den has won the last 10+games they've played, you would think they would come out and bring energy the whole game to break that streak, but nope, start strong and then just dwindles away.

Spot on Thibs...

I feel like I need to come up with Marginal Contact as a Halloween costume this year.

They old...if the refs don't get them the points they done.
