i think wade just picked up his dribble, then dribbled again before hitting a turnaround jumper

whiteside will actually be useful in this series once embiid gets back but yeah otherwise they’re way better playing with olynyk & johnson or even smaller
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 02:07 (six years ago) link
Whiteside might be the dumbest player I’ve ever seen. He takes himself out of so many games mentally. Miami got duped.

Good thought I imagined the double-dribble -> travel there.
― ヽ(´ー`)┌ (CompuPost), Tuesday, 17 April 2018 02:10 (six years ago) link
he’s okay. he has warts that ultimately make him not worth the money they’re paying him, but he also has stretches every year of really good basketball. he’s overpaid but they still get use out of him.

IIRC Blazers were after both Parsons AND Whiteside during 2016 FA summer bonanza for max / near max $.

there were plenty of other mistakes the blazers were delighted to make that summer

wow heat looked like they were ready to go home there for a min

btw feel like the refs might be letting 'em play a little too much
historically comedic performance by wade tonight
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 02:47 (six years ago) link
it is okay fun to root for wade in the playoffs

hard to get a handle on the series... i guess the sixers could feel good about the fact that they won by 30 when they shot incredibly well and lost a very close game when they shot incredibly poorly? embiid coming back throws a wrench in that tho. i think this comes back to philly 2-2 and we'll see what things look like at that point.
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 02:57 (six years ago) link
heat still have to figure out how to score without wade putting up 27 points tho
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 02:58 (six years ago) link
embiids return is a huge wildcard, rusty guy who demands tons of touches cld easily disrupt phillys rhythm for an unaffordable game or two when theyve been rolling without him, or he cld also just give philly too much talent for the heat to deal with
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:00 (six years ago) link
Good Defender danny green is kinda helpless against KD
― 21st savagery fox (m bison), Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:01 (six years ago) link
yeah hes just raising up and doinking in little mid rangers like nbd
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:02 (six years ago) link
embiid's return will also screw up the heat because whiteside has to match a lot of his minutes
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:05 (six years ago) link
Also maybe bump Pops up to the front office? He seems a little fried to me
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, April 16, 2018 8:10 PM (two hours ago)
I mean...the roster he coached to 47 wins...
― k3vin k., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:06 (six years ago) link
If Pop seems a bit fried, it's because he's had to work harder this year than he has for a very long time. He's about to take the helm of the U.S. national team, too.
― A is for (Aimless), Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:10 (six years ago) link
i'll cut pop some slack given the weirdness w/ kawhi. he seems surly but it basically tanked their season.
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:11 (six years ago) link
Good Defender kyle anderson has looked good on KD in the halfcourt, tho he cant hit an open 3 to save his life rn
― 21st savagery fox (m bison), Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:12 (six years ago) link
ya the dubs not even guarding him in the corner is pretty brutal

he's not a good 3 pt shooter overall, tho he has been ok from the corner. just not taking advantage of his gifts. xp
― 21st savagery fox (m bison), Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:17 (six years ago) link
i still come back to the fact that LMA left portland because there wasn't enough high end talent around him and now the spurs roster without kawhi is probably worse than what LMA left in portland. portland started lillard, mccollum, batum and robin lopez in the playoffs that year.
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:18 (six years ago) link
yeah add him to this years blazers and theyd be tough to deal with
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:19 (six years ago) link
You got it !!! It’s a travel! Harden does a double step back to get behind the line for a 3 pt shot. Gathers on Rft (0), launches back w/Lft (1), lands on next step w/Rft (2) and now brings Lft (3) https://t.co/ft3S7eWYPN— Ronnie Nunn (@NunnBetterRefs) April 16, 2018

i wouldn't mind if the nba did it's annual "let's figure out somethng to make the refs emphasize next season" on stepback travels

sure, but spurs w kawhi are much better than that portland team
― 21st savagery fox (m bison), Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:30 (six years ago) link
you know what makes calling some travels hard is the concept of gathering is kind of abstract like when does the dribble end like if harden had controlled the ball with one hand a little longer there wld it still be a travel
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:30 (six years ago) link
Pop must be so mystified by Kawhi, he spends the offseason getting LMA feeling good again and meanwhile his best player is quietly thinking who knows what about his career.

yeah def. the only point i'm making is that when LMA was on a team prob better than this spurs team people considered winning 1 series a nice outcome, and his last year there they lost 4-1 to memphis. not sure we should really expect much more out of this version of the spurs even putting this match up aside.
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 17 April 2018 03:46 (six years ago) link
oh yeah, no doubt. kawhi is the straw that stirs the drink here. im honestly going to be happy if the spurs stay competitive and maybe win a game or two this series so they can draft the next michael jordan with the no 18 pick and then pop and kawhi go on a wine tour this summer and learn that getting to work together everyday is the real championship.
