THE 2017 NBA 'OFFS™

@WinsIowHive: OKC had KD, Harden, Dion, Westbrook and kept the worst player out of the 4

lol

For the series, Westbrook missed 35 of 49 4th quarter shots. Nobody around him could shoot either, but that's incredible

joe johnson putting the final stake into the hear of the cp3-blake-deandre clippers would be.... really dark

joe freaking johnson man

Clippers flopping on picks an absurd amount

the clippers running the cp3-deandre PNR are unstoppable

if you took chris paul and deandre jordan and put them on the heat instead of goran dragic and hassan whiteside you'd have a 55 win team

And a redick leg kick. Why does kev like this team

oh ffs chris

this is hilarious

ok wow

Uh this is a fiasco, lowering the percentage on the second FT by like 8

CP pulling out all the stops in this one

Chuck now saying Joe Johnson has been the second best player in the playoffs behind LeBron.

And now he said this Russ season is the best individual season in NBA history...

This is what I get for leaving this on in the background.

can we replace chuck with kg full-time asap thx

Chuck needs to solve america's racial problems first

chuck is totally cooked yes. didnt bron bron suggest thats hes still in the game just to pay his gambling debts?

also im glad chris paul is such a terrible person, if anyone else was getting eliminated from the playoffs in such a consistently luckless fashion i might have to feel bad

i still really hate the oladipo acquisition for OKC

i really don't dislike kanter but like... they're paying him $70 million and he can't get off the bench in a must win playoff game

these are the first steps to realizing that sam presti is possibly a bad executive

i love it when chris paul gets eliminated from the nba playoffs

it hasns't happened yet though

sadly

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/19243080/zach-lowe-boston-celtics-hiding-isaiah-thomas-vs-chicago-bulls-nba

And sometimes, they've just eaten the switch. Thomas is 5-9, but he's stronger than brutes anticipate. "He's a tough, stocky little dude," said Miami's James Johnson, who formed one of the league's best wing-point guard pick-and-roll tandems this season with Goran Dragic. "He gets low. And when you try to back him down, he pulls the chair on you. He's got a lot of antics."

lol appreciate johnsons use of antics here

bulls: where is thomas
celtics: [shrugging]

bulls: [pointing at thomas] Is that thomas?
celtics: that's the ball boy.
[bulls look elsewhere, "ball boy" sinks a 3 pointer, celtics up by 2]
bulls: oh no

bulls: [pointing at thomas] we know thats thomas
celtics: [pulling philosophy book from backpack] how do you know

why is there a game at 3pm today...

nba really doesnt want people to watch the wiz vs hawks

is it a game if no one watches

makes u think

gonna have to think on this

if the scorekeeper falls asleep then they have to start over again from the beginning

i think the nba is doing the right thing

i watched the last game and despite it being close there was a profound underlying current of dissatisfaction

wall has been fun but pretty much everyone else is playing just ok or inconsistent. i like the lame trash talk between the teams tho. markief folding like a blanket after yapping has been predictable.

both celtics and wiz games are on tnt so they cant be on at the same time and theyre both on the east coast so one cant be too late so one has to be early i guess lol, 830 is a p late start anyway and itll prob start later considering theyre only giving the first game 2.5 hours to complete

i dont know how east coast folk watch sports.

how did the schedule end up with all western conf last night and all east tonight? that seems like it would be easy to avoid.

its bad, my life is so much more civilized since i moved to mountain time xp

i spent a while in alantic time wanna talk abt bad my lord

lol how'd you end up there

its,,,complicated

o wow i just realized i can never move to lisbon, another dream crushed

U just would need a night job where you can watch hoops

Late sports is the worst thing about the east coast, west coast start times are glorious except when you want to see the early Thursday game and it's nearly over by dinner

If you can still stomach football those late morning starts (get that national giants/cowboys game out of the way early) and Sunday nite ball wrapping up at a reasonable time is real nice too, loved finishing that with time to watch Sunday nite PRESTIGE DRAMA to spare

a night (hoops) watchman

i watched the last game and despite it being close there was a profound underlying current of dissatisfaction

Saw a lot of this one too and this series just has this...desultory aura around it. Like all the wiz but wall are saving a gear for the real start next round and all the scuffles feel like they're out of playoff obligation
