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

lol celtics just saved so much money via tatum missing it

Russell Westbrook received more All-NBA votes than both Devin Booker and Donovan Mitchell?

lol I just looked up Nurkic's father, looks like he just sent two guys to go kill Liam Neeson (those two guys being Jokic's brothers)

Interesting twist in the All-NBA voting. Tatum was eligible as a guard and forward and had more votes than Kyrie, who made the third team as a guard. But Tatum was slotted as a forward because that was the position where he received the most votes.

get rid of the positions for the love of god

lol thats is ridiculous

For real

randle making second team is ridiculous. probably wouldn't quibble with much else... maybe switching embiid in for kawhi on the first team

Yah was gonna say Embiid should be first team

weird to finish in second place mvp and not make the first team guess thats the position issue again

it appears both harden and jeff green are playing tonight

Harden not exactly kickstarting this offense

lol kd directing harden to the wing then bouncing it off his back

Harden coming back and the Nets getting smoked is truly the best of both worlds.

Earlier Giannis had a wide open 3, went into his motion, thought about it for a second and decided to pass, I like what I’m seeing

if it’s true that “health is a skill” then the bucks greatest skill might be that their 2 best players basically never get hurt and in particular seem impervious to playoff wear and tear at the same time as their competition in the east has their best players breaking down

Giannis was hurt in the playoffs last year

harden just cant do anything out there not sure what the point is

i remember giannis injury last year being pretty mild

Let’s be honest. Pat Connaughton is dominating this game.

pat vs jeff

Playoff Pat baby

yeah it’s pretty clear harden isn’t really healthy enough to play he’s just trying to go cuz kyrie got hurt

giannis is passing too much now

have the bucks tried to go at harden and make him play defense at all? if so i haven't noticed.

giannis just blew by him with zero effort

relying heavily on jeff green and blake griffin… not a recipe for success

hate to see my beloved nets struggle

Hey Green is doing pretty well

Am I correct in thinking this game might be tied if Harden wasn’t out there

no you are not correct

Well I rarely am

this game reminds me of games 3 and 4 of the bucks-heat series where any time the nets get it to 11 points and you’re like “ok might get it under 10 here!” the bucks immediately score 4-5 points

KD/J.Green: 10/16 FG, 33 points
Other Nets: 4/24 FG, 8 points pic.twitter.com/AwI8LHKHeC

I do know that if Milwaukee wins the Game 6 crowd is gonna be absolutely nuts

Per @nbastats, Kevin Durant tonight is the first player to play the entire first half of a playoff game since CJ McCollum in Game 5 of last year's first round.

wow

Harden also played 22 of 24 minutes sheesh

someones got to have a talk with him over halftime he should not be out there

contract the nets immediately

i don’t know about this pic.twitter.com/bHvDR5f9fk

hahah to paraphrase our great friend dr. morbius, what are you DOING to dmx???

hasn't dmx suffered enough

jeff green simply cannot miss

bud looks like someone who enjoys himself some steely dan

lol yeah the way he talks too

i have a hazy memory of a story from his hawks days where his own players ran into him at i think a young jeezy concert?

i hate the brooklyn nets

Oof Nets cannot miss from 3

bucks got big offensive rebounds on back to back possessions there to salvage 3 points

travis scott bandwagoning onto the nets i see
