It is the 2018-19 NBA Playoffs discussion thread for hoops friends ONLY

lol

almost singlehandedly denying chris paul of any real team success for 5+ years justifies the warriors existence on its own

Love how on the huge steal by klay on the lazy harden inbound pass to CP that CPs instinct was to flop rather than go for the loose ball.

jokic starting out really strong, great sign for denver

i think these red portland unis might be the GOAT team uniform, any sport

also, denver kinda rollin

yeah if one team is gonna make all their shots and the other team is gonna miss all of em well I got a prediction for ya

great game 7

close at last

ighhhh

gonna get physical now

nervous.jpg

nuggs look very unsure of how to get offense rn

CJ showed up

can’t get into our offense at all now

maybe nothing better than a big time playoff chase down block

bad fouling by the blazers gonna lose them the game

i'm sweating

cj

franchise legend performance tbh

NBA Playoffs

Oh man I’d live to see a nugs 3 here followed by another dame walk off

wow big honey bad miss

oh nikola :(

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

nuggets will win the nba playoffs

that is . . . not what i was expecting after the first quarter

I want to cry

Curry v Curry

kev your boys played an incredible series and obv have a huge future in front of them

Yeah, it's nuts how well they've done considering their youth.

that game was a great advertisement for Playoff Experience... nuggs were just a little frenetic and disorganized the final 6 mins of the game. portland wasn’t getting easy shots either but they were playing more calmly and deliberately. just seems like the kind of game the nuggets will win 2 years from now.

combined 6-for-45 from three!

Yikes, and now the Blazers won't get more than a day off between games til after game 3. At least they won't be battling altitude.

I’m really dejected but the playoffs clarified a lot of things for the nuggets:

-Barton can’t be in the 8 man rotation anymore
-Jokic is a playoff go-to guy, superstar, all that
-Gary Harris is back to being an elite defender

In a week I’ll be happy

Tough loss. Nuggets have a lot to be happy about. Big honey is that dude.

was that the first non chalk result

matt otm

would have made weird sense if the entire playoffs had gone chalk after how much parity there was in the regular season

CJ performance was legendary and he was so calm. Evan Turner earned that contract in one game

being so bad that your team ends up in an elimination game and then playing well in that game does not justify a big contract

I was not being serious

sorry

would like to see kawhi go off in this game now

i fully expect philly to have laid down completely by halfway through the third but this series has been so weird i have no concrete expectations

on pace for a 65-48 final score

56-48, even.

Evan Turner earned that contract in one game

Lol exactly

CJ is now officially my favorite NBA player.

i haven't been a huge cj fan b/c he doesn't do much other than score but when you score like that in a game 7 you're more or less bulletproof.

he takes almost exclusively difficult shots and i think that makes him susceptible to empty nights where his shots aren't falling and he isn't giving much else. but in tight playoff games tough shotmaking is very valuable.
