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

ILH hug your loved ones tonight

haha

Smart. Crush the league next year

Based on the first 2 minutes I'm worried about the Bucks, their shooting is looking extremely haphazard all around

trap game?

lmao @ this Bucks shooting performance

Giannis paused before that airball, clearly thinking to himself, "wait, is this that thing I'm supposed to not do?"

God the ridiculous unnecessary turnovers the Bucks are giving up so far. Still, I feel like they're playing very poorly and are only down 4 so it could be worse.

I'm enjoying Lopez just kind of hanging around being very tall

Hawks definitely playing much tighter D, still don't see them scoring enough points w/o Young

Giannis seems completely absent so far

not sure how many points the bucks would need to be down going into the fourth for me to feel like they were gonna lose… 24?

crazy kris dunn is out there

these are the situations you bring in Bobby Buckets for

Reddish is just a stupidly instinctive defender

giannis too worried about greece losing to canada in the olympic qualifiers just now

the guilt is eating him alive

I've seen free throws you wouldn't believe

Feels like the sort of game Jrue would just need to take over but he’s MIA as well

What WAS that? An incredibly shitty shot? Some kind of approximation of a pass?

Lol yeah I have no idea what they’re even trying to do on offense

Soo uh when is their shooting going to regress to the mean

This is the worst I've seen them look the entire season (I didn't watch the Nets blowout, did they look this bad?)

Thank god for half time is all I can say

Yeah Nets Game 2 was this bad they’re somehow shooting even worse. Idk what’s happening they all seem so shook right now, losing the ball on virtually every possession and struggling to even hit the rim

Right, you just feel like "what's our option" because everybody's ice cold, everybody's straight dropping the ball. Maybe they should have given Thanasis a couple of minutes

Hawks are so loaded next year

bucks gonna be the first team to fire their coach after winning the championship

oh no

that didn't look good

Oh man I’m sick

We call that the Jerry Krause

fuck

hoping against hope that it's a severe sprain

shocked he can walk honestly

Hyper extension bone bruise is best case I think can’t believe he’s walking

him walking after an injury that looked that bad is maybe one of the most impressive athletic achievements i can think of

this makes me reflect on my own awful nature. i love to clown the bucks because i do think they fuck up a lot, but that's only fun to do if they're at full strength. and with giannis it is never coming from a bad place. poor guy.

bucks vs hawks without giannis and trae is … not what you’re looking for if you’re a fan of nba basketball

I'm crushed right now, that looked like a "might miss next season" sort of injury but Giannis is a freak so who knows

Yah man I really hope there’s no major damage. The way he walked and came back kinda reminded me of klay 2019 finals, which…

Bucks saying hyperextension but idk if that's just how these injuries are called at first

God no

as noted by the instreetclothes guy, "hyperextension" is a description of what happened but not of what was actually damaged.

you won’t know what’s going on until they mri him, but if he’s moving around okay that’s obviously positive. if it’s just a bruise that’s amazing

how tf did Capela make that shot

you won’t know what’s going on until they mri him, but if he’s moving around okay that’s obviously positive. if it’s just a bruise that’s amazing

feel like every time I've seen something like that it's been at least a full season but who knows

Bucks are having the kind of night where Clint Capela gets compared to Larry Bird

He is literally the GOAT star

they should declare this year’s playoffs a no contest and award a double trophy to next year’s winner
