i have something to say about the offs THE 2016 NBA PLAYOFFS

replace it w burgers

just heard television "see no evil"

it's a shame about ray and kelly O and smart and crowder and

apparently tommy said something about horford that kind of pissed him off bit really blew bazemore' mind, love that dude

lol xp

That Amir Johnson brick from three made my eyeballs melt right out of my head

saw a sikh fan w a hawks flo yellow turban in the crowd thats an insult to god

atlanta ronald mcdonalds

Ew smart jae and it are 4-31

crowder so not back from that injury

Almost combined for as bad of a night as KD last night

bout to turn this garbage right off frankly

schroeder nooooooooo :(

i'm really depressed now

it's not enough to cheer me up but i listened to haralabob with simmons today and enjoyed the following tidbits:

1) homecourt advantage has decreased from an avg of 4 points to 2 points since adam silver became commissioner
2) bob has identified, but will not reveal, one adjustment teams could make against the warriors, and thinks the spurs could definitely make this unnamed adjustment

kicking steph in the ankle prob

bruce bowen coming out of retirement

lol

Otm tho

kevin martin looking hella comfortable out there on that second unit. he struggled to acclimate when he first got here, looked a little out of place, but he came to PLAY

rough night for TNT

i really had no idea kevin martin was on the spurs

his worthlessness on d is very un-spur-like

It's only 1.5 games of basketball but this series is really a convincing argument that the c's need to add a go-to scorer taller than 4'10

(Durant in green.jpg goes here)

yes plz

i watched the second half and dumbly thought "here's where the comeback is, here it is, it happened in the other two games..." aaaaaand nope just straight trash

apparently avery might come back early, but at this rate don't think it'll help much

thanks for the heads up on that haralabob simmons podcast, i enjoy listening to that guy he comes across as one of the smartest ppl 'in' basketball

haralabos not simmons obv

thibodeauberwolves is real - 5 yrs, 10 Ms, coach and president powers

that team is gonna be extremely legit quick i think

they prob got the best guy on the market but not sure i love it tbh, giving a coach personnel power is dicey + thibs maybe not the best for a young team

they will prob have +15 wins next year tho

think it will work out but he really needs to develop young talent and get a good offensive coordinator

thibs first year in chicago he had second year rose and third year noah and won 62 games (+21)

thibs def a winner, look at that bulls team now tho

yeah thats good news - they're like 2 years away from being a playoff team with a competent coach and could maybe even slip into the bottom seeds next year if the aging out teams like dallas and memphis fall off

wld be better suited to a team ready to contend, also his short sightedness re player health isnt encouraging when it comes to personnel decisions

i wonder if a year off has mellowed his views in that regard. provided he doesn't have massive selective ignorance he's gotta know on some level his drag-ass practices/player usage habits easily may have led to critical injuries in a season (14-15) where the bulls otherwise could've been conference finalists based on talent/ceiling

...totally possible he /does/ still have that ignorance and hasn't mellowed at all though.

yeah good call forgot he was there that long, and also forgot that d rose isnt in his mid 30s

idk i am bullish on thiberwolves

timberbulls

also cld be playing his starters big mins made him look like a better coach than he is

tomberweaulves

hes def a great defensive coach but his offense was a lil sus

too bad he cldnt goto the clips

no doc is perfect for the clippers

iirc the twolves starters were one of the highest scoring lineups of the season, theyve already got that part down. just need a good 6th/7th man & better defense

& a leader with a gravelly voice

xp watching them it seemed like they got more competent as the season ground on. kat is just going to get better, i think playing lavine at the 2 (if this has been accepted) will let him fit the role he's best at but requires healthy rubio/some other 1 obtained somewhere, the big spot imo is wiggins and consistency.

he's garbage from 3 (on a very low sample size) and his defense is spotty. some of this is probably effort/getting up for 82 games/second yr/a lot of development yet to come but i think for the team to take the next step he has to be more present and ready because when he's dialed in he can affect games significantly

these thread names are too similar!
