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

they have money to sign some FAs too

personally think projecting what other teams will be good is pointless the league is so volatile got to base it on what will give u the best chance of building a champ team

yeah fair, hard to know what even next year is gonna look like until the kd situation is resolved

wonder if they'll try to retain mahimni, had a really good contract year

guys there is no way the lakers are going to offer Russell and the pick for george

randle and the pick however...hmmm. that would let George play the 4 (which he hates)

its possible imo, lakers r dum, they shopped russell like two months ago

dum ppl think pg is mvp level

new thread Juiceman, Juiceman, Juiceman, them boys up to something

lol Simmons floating that PG shit of course

Bosh out for rest of year

that was pretty obvious already even if they didn't want to say it officially

official call is no travel. i still think he moves both feet when he's getting up, but oh well

Kyle Lowry's 2015-16 postseason numbers:

13 PPG / .306 FG % / .160 3PT% / .718 FT%

apparently he's hurt? he better be at least

he def played terrible last night even outside just shooting

on lowe's last pod he was saying he's hearing lowry's elbow is fine.

cleve looking good

10/14 from three so far

holy smokes theyve already broke the record for threes in a half with 8 minutes left in the 2nd

13 so far

fucking hell

Lebro is Locked in

3pt shoooting in the fist half

hawks 2-11
cavs 18-27

This is unreal.

Watching the Hawks get straight up murdered tonight, damnnnnnn

Harlan being reduced to just screaming "No! No! No!" at jr smith three bombs

regular season record for 3p makes in a game is 23, playoffs record 21

and cavs made it to 23!!! rad

wish I could've watched this game, instead my wife and I had to hash out details about our move to cleveland which is actually happening for real now. I already talked to my brothers about getting some season tickets for next year

Too bad bron gonna be on the banana boat somewhere else

25 threes good lord

nah the bananaboat is coming to cle

(prob not really though)

Cavs averaging 15.6 3-pointers per game in postseason thus far. All-time postseason record is 11.7 per game by 2013 Rockets.

this could be a problem

i assume this one game has skewed the average since they've only played 6 games right

yeah, but they are balling

live by jr... ... ... die by jr

yeah that's what i'm hoping but now i'm even more disappointed we didn't show up for game one

I would like to remind everyone that J.R. Smith was the "cost" of trading for Iman Shumpert.

is it accurate to say that jr has improved immensely the past few weeks/months as a player? without looking at stats it seems that way idk, he just seems a lot more serious

He's the definition of a streaky player and sometimes his streaks last weeks or even months

this is def some of the best he's ever played but I'm not convinced he won't randomly bodyslam Bazemore or go 0-13 any moment

he does look very locked in and has been playing great d in the playoffs

never trust JR smith

^finals thread title

i feel like cleve fans/j.r. believers are the frog riding atop the scorpion's back rn and the stinger might not come till the finals but it's always a threat

word

no matter what though jr's been a lot of fun lately

i remember korver was on jj reddick's podcast a little while back and they both were effusive in their praise for jr smith

could even be as simple as JR forgoing nightclubs for the playoffs

jr took some extremely bad shots yesterday, and they went it
