or was**

prob trying to heal the arm scratches so people dont puke while watching the playoffs

he looked like dogshit last night, but it seemed more like rust than any obvious injury to me. I’d like to think if he were actually hurt they’d be extremely cautious with him, but I have no idea what goes through malone’s head. they also might have just figured jokic could play 20 mins or so and they’d be up 15-20 and he could sit the rest, though obviously that didn’t happen

One more stat from Embiid’s performance:

Embiid's showing was one for the history books, as he became the first player in the shot clock era to score more than half of his team's points and shoot 80% from the field, and he joined Wilt Chamberlain as the only players to record at least 50 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists while shooting 80% from the field.

weird game tho felt like both teams were saving their stuff for the playoffs celtics just kept single teaming him with forwards

Yeah, the rest of the Sixers except Tucker were pretty bad. Same article that stat came from said Maxey has been terrible all year against the Celts. He needs to cook if they play the Celts in second round and want a shot at winning.

Fun fact: Heat's Tyler Herro ended season with most 4th QTR made free throws without a miss (42) since NBA started keeping track of this in 1997. Next closest player this year was 10 for 10.

NBA's assist/turnover ratio leaders in the past 5 seasons:

2019: Tyus Jones
2020: Tyus Jones
2021: Tyus Jones

peak "just go out there and dont fuck up" player, his brother tre is very similar in that regard

this is insane

NBA home teams down 0-1 in a playoff series have now won 16 straight games by an average score of 117-100.

Suns tonight

Booker 47-9-6-3-1
Durant 39-9-8-0-2

If Durant had reached 40 would've been 5th time teammates went for 40 in the offs, first since Reggie Miller/Jalen Rose in 2000.

meanwhile on the other side Jokic 30-17-17

first 25/15/15 playoff game...utterly insane line

Booker's the third player in NBA history to shoot 80% or better on 20+ shots in a playoff game. You will literally never, ever guess the other two.

three guys with sort of weird career stories too!

This will never not blow my mind.

2011-2014: Heat in finals
2015-2019: Warriors in finals
2020: Heat in finals
2022: Warriors in finals
2023: Heat in finals

One of them has been there in 12 out of the last 13 years. And they never got there together. Insane.

From 2021 to 2023, Kevin Durant attempted 2.1 rim shots/75 (shot 68.8%) in the playoffs.

Players taking more shots at the rim/75 in that same stretch:

- Draymond Green
- Max Strus
- Khris Middleton
- Desmond Bane
- Michael Porter Jr.

Lol right on cue today

KD is currently in a spaces called ‘KD is not top 5’ and the host is telling him he’s not as good as Luka and KD is arguing with him. Every time I think I’m out on him, he drags me back in. Posting legend!

— kang (@jaycaspiankang) June 24, 2023

I see goon posted about it in the main thread. The link to it is in the second post, listening to him right now. I’m on team Kd on this, these Twitter guys are unlistenable morons.

that stat is shocking

it kind of is but then i think about his game over the past couple years and how it looks in my mind's eye and yeah.....he's never near the rim

Lots of fall away or pull up 6-8 footers

hes still great but I mean...it's 2023
