ITS THE OFFS BABY THE 2023 NBA PLAYOFFS

its tough too since okc has all their picks

can they ask for them back

+ shai

damn i feel bad for questioning kawhi now. he cant have much cartilage left in those knees.

new owners just want to come in and trade for stars even tho its usually not the right thing to do, pretty funny

they’re moving into a new arena two seasons from now and their expensive players are shedding value on a regular basis. it’s not great!

yeah and the new CBA is essentially designed to stop ballmer from lording his wealth over the league

well, it's over the Wolves finally. What a weird, frustrating, occasionally awesome season.

The last couple of games w/Denver made it hard not to wonder about the what-ifs (what if we had had fewer of those inexcusable losses during the season to teams like detroit, what if KAT hadn't been out most of the season, what if Naz hadn't gotten hurt, what if Jaden hadn't punched a wall and was guarding Murray - even just shaving 3/4 points off his totals per game would have made a difference)

the future is so weird - do we ditch KAT? the Rudy deal was a big mistake and hamstrings us in the future building around Ant. so hard to say. I'd probably vote for trying to trade KAT and resigning Naz.

Is Finch the coach moving forward?

BUT the big thing we found out is that Ant is a true #1 superstar. That's the most important thing in basketball. So, there's still hope and as long as he's here he's a reason to tune into the game. what goes around him is the big puzzle and who the fuck knows.

Before Devin Booker and Kevin Durant this year, the last pair of teammates to play at least 43 MPG in the first round was Nicolas Batum and Damian Lillard in 2014 vs. Houston.

to barely squeak out wins vs the clippers B team

russ going out on a high note 3/18 in a closeout game.

and KAT and gobert both fouled out of that game

everyone living up to their true selves

so we’ve got three higher seeds facing elimination tonight and a potential series swinging game 5 in the other match up. fingers crossed for a great night of ball

we deserve it

i'm a bit of a ballhead

the first step is admitting it

who doesnt like a little basketball from time to time

you could say i've tossed the ol' sphere through the basketball ring once or twice in my life

ILM virtual HORSE tournament

ilh dunk contest lets go

knicks are once again beating the cavs, poor showing by the cavs, disappointing

the cavs are not serious about basketball i fear

do they have something better to do whats up cavs

cavs have one quarter to save themselves from a massively disappointing playoffs

do the grizzlies really not have anyone better than brooks? he’s single-handedly responsible for the lakers’ 8-0 run

yeah i flipped over to the cavs game and i can report that they don't presently care much about basketball just not very interested in playing it good

nothin you can do i guess

it's a lot of effort, running and jumping and so forth

what kind of name is obie toppin thats not real be serious

short for obadiah toppenheimer

mem up by 18 after 3 ja just did a pretty sick finger roll

young barkley in these gambling ads is so bad i cant stand him

yeah ban deep fakes they're awful and sad

mitchell robinson being the best big man in that series should rattle the cavs. how can you be the twin towers team and let that happen? he kicked allen’s ass the whole series. mobley you can excuse a bit bcuz of his age & he did show up on defense. but damn

Otm

mitch rob played pretty fantastically well this series, but having two all star bigs and still getting out rebounded by josh hart is just no bueno

right. like, what happened???

bud using his challenge 4 and a half mins into the game surely this won’t come back to bite him

and lost the challenge. my god bud

that was awful

cant stand this austin reaves guy. all he does is flop

amazing how donovan mitchell completely faded into the background that series

the your turn my turn stuff with garland really wasnt it

Reaves is a grifter for sure. not a fan

lmao jimmy

this is a game where youd expect the bucks to jump out to a big early lead, and yet

if he played for any other team you wouldnt know his name. he also has no moves

the heat need to make the bucks feel the pressure
