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

the Simmons one handed lob to embiid was very good

Nugs just don’t have the talent to match up here

yeah shame murray is out. could have been a great series

Mpj and Gordon have been 🗑 and Morris until this hame.

Big honey leaving it all out there, as they say

32-20-10 for jokic at least

jokic was so good, just some amazing dimes

3rd player with a 30-20-10 in the playoffs (wilt and kareem)

.@ginamizell made sure to follow up when Deandre Ayton made a look at the box score. His answer on Nikola Jokic's 32-20-10 line did not disappoint. pic.twitter.com/GlaA2gECKc

i think jokic might be the first player to ever do it twice though. him and dame should start a group chat.

Westbrook surely has a 30-10-20 or two tho

man the suns are on freaking fire

that ayton clip is very charming, perfect responce, well mediad

Ayton is extremely underrated rn

Indeed. Hasn’t had a low energy game all playoffs.

idk it seems like he is being properly rated after a series of good performances in high profile playoff games

Yeah you would say that because you underrate him

everyone is like, he’s playing really well! lol. how is he being underrated

Chris Paul was an mvp candidate averaging 16 and 8 or whatever because people think Ayton is just a guy

A weird thing that happened last night was Trae young committing two really dirty fouls after the whistle and the sixers just ignoring it?

Trae isn't really getting under the sixers skin.

Basically every role player on the suns looks like a potential starter for a lower tier playoff team and three of their starters look like all-stars. If they stay healthy, it's hard not to pick them out of the west. I did!

Nets/Sixers feeling harder to pick with the injuries, curious to see who can finish their respective series first.

The Jazz or Clippers will have to play much better than they have played so far, if they want to beat the Suns in the WCF.

the jazz are 6-1 w/ two pretty convincing wins over the clippers and the only loss being the one game mitchell didn't play. not sure they could be playing much better

jazz suns would be a cool wcf i know its just the top 2 seeds but they're both non-superteams which feels like an anomaly these days

jazz match up well with the suns, especially if they get conley back

would be a great series, both teams have a lot of shooters

they’re kind of mirror images of each other, assuming conley plays. it would be really fun

yeah, i'm up for it for sure. Only saw about six jazz games during the regular season though so not as deeply acquainted with them as many of the also rans. of course they look like a much different team with Mitchell rampaging.

Clippers starting off a must win game by letting Joe Ingles shoot wide open jumpers

Basically every role player on the suns looks like a potential starter for a lower tier playoff team and three of their starters look like all-stars. If they stay healthy, it's hard not to pick them out of the west. I did!

not seeing any picks sorry forks

bums me out that Jamal Murray will end up being a big "what if"of these playoffs

it’s very depressing

yeah its like that

tho dont think hed be helping them too much with their defense which had been shredded

Already four unassisted 3s for the Jazz in the first quarter tonight, so they're on pace to do this again.

you know who has been good this playoffs who usually kind of sucks reggie jackson

tho dont think hed be helping them too much with their defense which had been shredded

i think its possible that murray couldve –changed the complexion of the series— as they say, suns are just looking so good tho

also the guards that the nuggets have now are so bad on offense that paul and booker aren't being tested and can focus all their energy on their own offense

it would’ve been an excellent series

it’s difficult to say whether gordon and porter would’ve played better with murray healthy, you’d have to say yes but whether they would’ve been better enough is impossible to answer

murray is streaky too which also makes it hard to say

It’s not difficult to say which is why you’d have to say yes

regardless i think we can all say that we would have liked to see it

this is a ridiculous shot

Donovan Mitchell drills a TOUGH stepback 🔥

He's got 16 points at the half for the Jazz.pic.twitter.com/yedpFVAVbC
