indy is interesting. if they can get one more high-level player in there they'll have a strong team for a couple years.

Definitely an interesting first roundBut overall still like the Nuggets to win it all

lebron was -2 in the game lol

shdve played the whole game

mitchell just made a pretty advanced cross court pass

harden is an artist man

lol lance at -19 in 12 minutes
'what's wrong with you?'
― mookieproof, Sunday, 29 April 2018 20:19 (six years ago) link
lance was pretty terrible. the collison-oladipo back court looked kinda legit

rockets pick and roll is just murdering the jazz
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 29 April 2018 20:27 (six years ago) link
don't think switching so that gobert is guarding chris paul 22 feet from the rim is the best strategy for the jazz...
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 29 April 2018 20:28 (six years ago) link
really just unfair to have the 2 best iso players in the league on the same team. crazy that people doubted they'd work together in the playoffs
― k3vin k., Sunday, 29 April 2018 20:29 (six years ago) link
rockets look good
― k3vin k., Sunday, 29 April 2018 20:44 (six years ago) link
yeah, here's to hoping rockets and dubs are both at full strength for the WCF. Should be a series for the ages.

jesus capela is eurostepping now
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 29 April 2018 21:04 (six years ago) link
in the future, everyone will have their 15 minutes of eurostepping
― 21st savagery fox (m bison), Sunday, 29 April 2018 21:17 (six years ago) link
comforting to know that the rockets don't look like an nba team with both harden and cp on the bench
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 29 April 2018 21:34 (six years ago) link
cld be a tuff series for utah

seems unlikely

They’re gonna get swept w no Rubio

btw I know none of y'all care about this but Dipo's 3 as time expired wound up covering the point spread and cost Vegas millions of dollars, lol
wound up making me about 20 bucks though :)

i never say anything cuz i don't want to sound like a mid day sports talk radio dude from kansas but i never feel like i fully understand plus/minus's usefulness as a metric
― The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 30 April 2018 20:28 (six years ago) link
it's not a great stat but if anything it showed the role players on the cavs actually played their role last night. tristan chose the best time to play his best game he's played in the last 2 years.
― they call me melo gelo (Spottie), Monday, 30 April 2018 20:49 (six years ago) link
i want to pick toronto in this series but lebron has so much voodoo over that franchise it'll prob be a cleveland sweep lol

i think the most useful way to think about it is as a completely meaningless number
― lag∞n, Monday, 30 April 2018 21:03 (six years ago) link
ftr I do not think that single-game plus-minus stats mean much, I posted that more as a joke. obviously if lebron did not play the cavs would have been blown out
I do think plus-minus numbers are very important over large samples and when properly adjusted
― k3vin k., Monday, 30 April 2018 21:12 (six years ago) link
it means the Pacers blew it
key to winning that game was dominating the brief stretch when Lebron leaves the floor

prediction: there will not be a lot of scoring in this series
― k3vin k., Tuesday, 1 May 2018 00:28 (six years ago) link
i just spent a legit 5-10 minutes opening and browsing through a book i ordered and i think 3 pts were scored?

Embiid needs to drop the placebo tape.
― Jeff, Tuesday, 1 May 2018 01:54 (six years ago) link
Down only 12 seems to be a gift for philly right now. Simmons needs to calm down. He can get to the rim so easily, but makes terrible decisions half the time.

So many bad 3’s

::twitter guy whispering around corner:: this is another playoff game where al horford was the best player on the floor.

Wow. These kids on the Celtics look so comfortable.

Celtics fans are now chanting “Trust the Process” except they are substituting a word for “Trust” and you can probably guess what it is.— Tom Westerholm (@Tom_NBA) May 1, 2018

this is a key early series in what might be a long rivalry
― k3vin k., Tuesday, 1 May 2018 02:42 (six years ago) link
Eventually only Tatum/Rozier/Horford will be the ones not injured and they will still prob win it all.
― Jeff, Tuesday, 1 May 2018 02:44 (six years ago) link
lol juxtaposed 2 posts there...anyway looking forward to potentially years of this, both teams at full strength xp

man phillys D was baaad lol

also the celtics D was good
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 1 May 2018 03:43 (six years ago) link
and phillys big plan in the halfcourt is to shoot contested 3s i guess

celtics def seem to be of the mind that double teaming embiid is death, theyre just gonna let him get his then have al slow him down in crunch time
