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

booker's midrange ability off the dribble makes him a pretty incredible playoff player. gotta be able to get to a spot and hit a tough pull up J in the offs still

yeah hes def a guy who can create a shot when he needs to

the thing that's great about the suns is they have 3 wing defenders so booker is never taxed on defense. the nets of all teams left would be the ones who could really expose him defensively the way other teams can't... if they face the jazz they'd prob just stick him on royce o neal? they match up nice w/ the clippers esp given that the clippers don't want to put a center on the floor

this pass got me so hyped last night

This pass is unreal. Nikola Jokic fakes the fadeaway jumper and seamlessly hits the cutter. Incredible. pic.twitter.com/h24v0CehxA

yeah that was a great play

yeah that one was so pretty. i'm probably projecting but seeing that happen with barton specifically seems like a testament to how long their core has been together. murray, barton, millsap have logged so many minutes with jokic, they know what he's capable of. his is a good brain to meld with

this is why going into the playoffs i liked them. nothing they did all regular season was flukey. just a sound defensive team + two incredible half court shot creators + solid role players and vets. even saric was huge last night. they arent reliant on the three ball like the jazz and clips. the only thing that MAY be a little flukey is cam payne, but hes been doing it really since the bubble so this might just be who he is now. he really is fun to watch, one of the quickest first steps in the league and also that insane looking 90 degree body turn jump shot.

"MEAT OFF THE BONE NO PROBLEM THERE"
love kevin harlan

need the bucks to win by at least 20 tonight to restore my faith in humanity

giannis has already jacked up two horrible 3s idgi

Bucks are nearly up 20 already

too early tho

need a 40 point win now.

11 points in a quarter with Kyrie and KD feels like we just saw a UFO

bruce brown just scored on lopez 4 straight posessions as the roll man

that was insane lol

if a 6’ 4” converted guard can effectively play on both ends against your 7 foot center you might have a problem

bruce is playing out of his mind

This sucks man

he made another floater as the roll man, almost stole the ball from giannis off the inbound three separate times coming up the floor and then blocked brook lopez at the rim causing a jump ball

why is lopez still out there ahahah. bud is a clown

why has giannis shot 4 threes is the real question. he should shoot exactly zero of those per game

its sad but its also kind of funny

it infuriating

as is this 5 point quarter from the bucks

how are you supposed to guard a KD-joe harris pick and roll

run an all-wing lineup and switch everything?

cut middleton for missing this shot

portis is badly outplaying lopez

jrue holiday’s impact on this series has been _______?

Giannis stop

This whole series hinges on Jrue and the Bucks are down 0-2 so

that pels series against the blazers is getting very distant in the rear-view mirror

bruce brown has been the best player on either team tonight lol

Might not be bad for the Bucks to get fired up right now

tuckers been doo doo so hopefully that does something for him/them

i get that on d giannis floats and freelances a lot but it seems like such a waste to match him up with blake when kd is out there

what was taht security guard doing.

the nets play way better team basketball than the bucks, not really a great sign

blake trying to dunk on brook and getting blocked into the core of the earth u_u

blakes post moves still get a chuckle out of me

blake getting stuffed by lopez is 5 out of 5 stars xp

here come the refs

you should basically have to take out a shiv and stab a guy in the ribs for there to be a call on a screen in either direction imo

seriously

this game has been super tight since brooklyn caught back up

if the bucks lose this series id like to see what diantoni could do with this team, he would come up with an offensive configuration that works

bucks bench 4 points lol

they need anyone to make a shot not named giannis/khris

giannis 0-6 from 3 just throwing possessions away

insane

his shot from distance is still so broken and ugly
