2015 NBA 'OFFS

the spurs are def getting a lot of "the right way" love right now

they always have and always will, of course, but I think they're dynamic and fun to watch in a way that belies such a loaded description and all the easy jokes resulting from it

i most strongly associate "play the right way" with larry brown and those mid-00's pistons teams, brown repeated it like a mantra

Glad to see pop rock the beard again

re: FT rule change...what about allowing any player on the court to take any FT?

xxp exactly! shit like that.

I swear if I see another fuckin sports blogger or avid fan, etc. (most likely those under 30, and I'm under 30 so I can say jfc we're awful sometimes) tweet another fuckin tired joke about the spurs being old or boring or whatever, ugghhhh like get new material or actually idk watch fucking basketball games

Cp3 too old, lost that quick first step years ago, too bad they don't have a decent backup pg anymore, this has been your quarterly brimstead hot take, sb away

that's a pretty non-hot/reasonable take tbh

the playoffs are cool http://www.nba.com/2015/news/features/john_schuhmann/04/25/wizards-go-small-ball-comes-up-big/index.html

Whittman coty

Whoa what happened Spurs vs clips? Did doc just start the bench or what?

clips forgot how to shoot and some other stuff

lol I love this. "this thing we tried just a few times during the regular season totally worked, so we said fuck it! but back's against the wall and my job is on the line so maybe I should so this smart lineup switch!"

*do

obviously truth's age means you can't run it every single game/gotta give your other starters rest too AND raps defense means it has its best chance of success in series against bad defenders but there are y'know a lot of minutes during the regular season and 156 minutes seems like a notably small chunk of time for a lineup that's notably effective

lol

hb to one of the alltime alltimers

I still say the wiz small ball thing wouldn't go so well if the raps player James Johnson

*played

lol

I don't think the goonie Kawhi doubt crusade is gonna go so well

probably will go better than the Ryan Hollins 2.0 thing tho

Dennis Johnson probably should have been DPOY and Finals MVP for the Sonics btw

xps wow carlisle, maybe it's you man

I don't think the goonie Kawhi doubt crusade is gonna go so well

lol

ilx: kawhi is as good as pippin
me: naw
matt "archivist" armstrong: u doubted kawhi

suuuuuure man that's what's happening here

shouldnt u bee searching the archives to pull a single post out you can misconstrue

nursing weird grudges about foreign big men

haha come on no one said kawhi was as good as pippen

Pippen also set a career high in points at 32 in the playoffs, when he was a year older than Kawhi btw.

WELL IN THAT CASE

I lol at pippen for that. it's very funny that that's all he did, he is overrated

nice job only scoring 32 in the playoffs, Pippen guy.

haha come on no one said kawhi was as good as pippen

kev we misconstrued this we should apologize

literally my entire argument with ilx abt kawhi is regarding whether he is a great scorer/creator and i am being persecuted by this board for insulting their boyfriend

like i have complimented him as a great all around player a million times and then said i dont think he will be as good as pippin <<<which someone did say and was agreed with

kev we misconstrued this we should apologize

ha ur doing it right now

You think he's overhyped and that's fine but I also think it's not gonna work out for you dude

I mean there's only so many things like pointing out that his career high of 32 isn't impressive before you're just the Kawhi doubter guy, sorry

matt plz mention this every day going forward it will be very enjoyable for everyone

probably will go better than the Ryan Hollins 2.0 thing tho

you're just the Kawhi doubter guy, sorry

matt armstong ladies and gentlemen

Kev will concede the point soon, like Jord did with the 2011 draft. But you, you have the long term potential to find a problem with a Kawhi MVP season or something.

ilx: i see kawhi developing into scottie pippin
me: i dont think he has the distributing skills of pippin who was the defacto point guard for one of the all time great teams
matt armstrong: UR THE KAWHI H8R SRY
