nba playoffs aka the 'offs (which includes the 'ins) 2021

ja is cooking tonight

I blinked and it’s a two point game? The jazz may be flawed

the grizzlies have hit roughly 23 of 25 shots in the third quarter

the degree of difficulty on ja’s shots is so high but when he’s making them it’s very impressive

some of the worst pick and roll defense i can remember from the grizzles tonight

memphis really should have challenged that charge call, very high leverage swing there

i mean the game is over. but it was a horrific call

there were 3 really bad calls on the grizz right in a row

wow turned it off after the first quarter but crazy line from ja vs the best defense

good thing the jazz remembered to play mitchell i guess

Ended up not mattering, but Grizzlies scored on **15 straight possessions** to start 3rd quarter last night. 34 points in 8 minutes. Haven't seen Utah get it taken to them like that all year.

reading lowes excellent piece on the current state of the bucks and had totally forgotten that they got middleton in the brandon jennings brandon knight trade, the trade of the brandons

just some second year second rounder throw in

crazy run by the griz there xxp gotta love them taking it to the jazz griz are cool

strictly in the interest of transparency... grayson allen watch:

19 minutes, 0-6, 0 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 fouls, -23

Jazz also went right at Grayson Allen any time he was in the game, Memphis might need to think about Konchar or even (gasp) Winslow for Game 3.

what happened to justice winslow just too injured or what

Winslow just isn’t good

i mean he never was better than a backup but now hes truly awful

He's good at not having a punchable face.

the intangibles

winslow basically hasn't played in like 2 years, hard to jump right back into the league and be good

true

i doubt he'll ever be a player of consequence again. he had some playoff value earlier in his career when he could guard 1-4 & i guess he probably still could but whatever offensive progress he had made seems to have been completely undone by his injuries, plus a lot of it involved him having the ball in his hands on not very good heat teams which is not going to happen in memphis

omg Stephen A is on one today

he's about to lay hands on someone and heal them

cool to spit on a player during a pandemic

they need to bring back some Palace of Auburn Hills energy on these assholes

a proposal

players get a set number of punches to use a year, say five, if they chose to punch a fan the refs bring them out to center court and the player takes his shot, then the game resumes https://t.co/pnc7mqZMDF

The fan must get back up, or his team loses. A new kind of flopping emerges.

I was sort of into the Knicks little thing, because it had been a while for them and they're not a threat, but being in a car for 1.5 hours this afternoon listening to sports talk (1) analyze the rd 1 gm 2 win like a gm 7 OT championship victory; and (2) talk about how this is the start of building a perennial contender, and I am on Team Fuck the Knicks.

Just pathetic.

don’t let sports radio ruin nice things!

never listen to sports radio

knicks fandom has never been nice! i won’t stand for this

you should call into sports radio and tell them

first time long time but i had to get in here to say knicks fans are trash thanks i'll take your comments off air

Hey Dan - 6 feet, 195 (ding) the Knicks suck!!!!!!

lol, i know what I'm getting into with sports talk - now i just want those dweebs on 7th avenue to cry.

i down for the Knicks getting knocked in the first or second round for the next few years.

my hatred of new york sports fandom especially knicks & jets stems from riding in the car with my dad as a kid listening to the myriad new york transplants in south florida calling into sports radio. there can’t be a worse type of new yorker than the ones who call into sports radio in other cities. i’m sorry but i can’t forget this it’s in my blood and for this reason knicks fans must experience only disappointment and pain. idk how to post the meme of bugs bunny where it says “lord forgive me but it’s time to go back to the old me” but that’s where i’m at

there should be one of those memes but it's james dolan and his guitar

lol growing up in boston of course you hate all new york teams but then living in new york and watching so many knicks games cause they were on tv i developed a soft spot for and i guess became interested in the weird dysfunction of their organization and culture, one thing i love about them is how old school they are msg is so mid century, theyve got a bizarre neanderthal owner, theyre called the knickerbockers which i guess is pants, and of course theyve got clyde who is a type of guy they dont make anymore, also must say i kinda felt bad for how paul pierce just destroyed them four times a year for 15 years, heard someone say that they hate pierce more than reggie miller and reggie miller destroyed their childhood lmao, still hate the yankees and their fans tho fuck monument park you grandiose freaks

MSG is a wonderful experience no doubt about it

i’m in the building for heat-bucks tonight. i think some of these arenas that are allowing the full amount of fans in for the first time have so many tickets they couldn’t sell until like this week that prices are really cheap. i got tickets for $65. i knew a weird amount of friends who went to nets-celtics games in brooklyn who don’t particularly care about the nets or have connections to tickets.

siick

miami not getting a lot of points so far

that rules jordan, enjoy

friend of a friend is gonna be at moda tonight, big nuggets fan, has tickets just behind the blazers bench and is reportedly a "world-class heckler" so watch for that i guess lol

nice! never been to a playoff game :(

$65 is ridiculously cheap wow.

Have fun Jordan, hope the Bucks win by 30
