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

its a friggin elimination game and by contrast to a lot of these 1st round games raps-pacers has been solid! weird

if it's on ESPN news you should be able to watch it on the app/online

but yeah i haven't seen the viewership numbers for the first round overall yet but i would assume they have been all-time level disastrous. i don't even care anymore tbh

are you telling me that no one wants to watch the dubs east aka the powerful charlotte hornets

just me n u pal

hornets have been pretty fun since they woke up from their coma

ya 3 straight after losing the 1st 2 is p impressive

their offense is really pretty when it's working

weird http://nba.nbcsports.com/2016/04/28/chris-bosh-wife-publicly-lobbying-heat-to-play-big-man

btw, I will grudgingly admit that austin rivers now looks like someone who belongs in an nba rotation, even if he doesn't look like a starter. his defense has improved a lot, even if his offense is still pretty limited. at least he has stopped jacking up outside shots he can't make. he can thank his daddy for giving him a sheltered workshop in which to learn the pro game, while pulling down millions of dollars for being given that privilege.

apparently him and doc are not close at all and don't really interact outside of basketball

yeah i read that too. pretty weird.

would you be close to doc rivers?

lol nearly every demise-of-the-rockets piece has invoked "they are who we thought they were"

which is not really accurate because...they were considerably worse!

they are who we currently think they are

not proper context for invocation imo

going to game 6 tonight stressed af already

damn bro nice ticket

nice

pics or it didn't happen

I think doc would probably be cool to hang with as a grown up but I think they have a classic dad who worked way too much and never saw his kids relationship basically and now yr dad being yr boss when u kind of suck at yr job also seems sort of awkward

And that's why you don't trade for your son

you'd think this would be a good opp for them to get to know each other a little better...

doc was always flying to see austins hs games on celtics off days took him for a pretty dutiful dad but who knows u know, also around the league he is supposedly one of the most universally well liked and respected guys, sort of the secret to his success

Kanter eats halal because of his religion. Adams eats halal for a slightly different reason.

“Because it’s awesome,” he said.

kinda love that kanter story

lol KD

“I think it’s bull—,” he joked after a recent practice. “I’ve been here for nine years and I requested some stuff after the game and I have to pay for it on my own. And the second he gets here he gets his own menu.” Durant’s faux-outrage, however, may come from his personal taste for the food: “It’s nasty to me,” he said.

--call all destroyer

go crazy!

totally! have fun cad, that is awesome

Bazemore everywhere in this game

love these 5 minute stretches of no scoring at either end

im overcome with a desire to bully dennis schroder

u have jerebko fever

I love how hard the garden is booing him

ze german, that is, not jerebko

celtics w the three rookie pg lineup

hunter's a 2-guard but yeah its not ideal

uhg so many threes rattling out

c's are playing so tight. lots of dumb mistakes.

olynyk is so very O_o

rip

atl just really locked Isaiah up and it's messed up the whole offense, also rebounding

this is pretyt much how i feared the rest of the series would go after bradley got injured, hawks just crowd the paint and the celtics can't shoot

also aggresively chasing the celtics off the 3 line and forcing their secondary players to make decisions

twisting the knife

turned it off, good season by the c's but they cld really use kevin durant

condolences to the boston contingent. i will be rooting for kd in green next year.

lmao someone on atlanta passed the ball directly to marcus smart and he looked so confused for a sec
