ITS THE OFFS BABY THE 2023 NBA PLAYOFFS

good stuff

its funny how many basketball people are obsessed with closing out quarters, we need someone to introduce the dominating the middle of quarters mindset

That’s just the Kobe System

getting that kobe (system)

should poll things to dominate

pritchard in the game wonder if brogdon is done for the offs with that injury he just cant shoot, sucks

good game for the boston celtics nice job

think losing vincent hurt the heat a lot, they didnt have enough ballhandling out there, duncan robinson was running plays, and tbf he had a great game (nine assists!) but still thats just not ideal

Celtics finally playing like the better team they are. Game 6 should be a good one

Spo is definitely one of those coaches who's good at making it work despite injuries but there's always a breaking point and I think Vincent is it

with herro and vincent out theyve got two guys left who can dribble

idk how bad vincents injury is maybe he can play in game 6

seems like they need him out there

was shooting around at the playground by my apt & there were some kids out there going “this is how lebron shoots” and then intentionally shooting increasingly awful shots, hitting backboard 1.5 feet above the rim and such. he needs to retire before he loses everyone born after like 9/11

damn that’s extremely sad :(

rough stuff from the peanut gallery

can't decide if that's worse or better than shouting "kooo-be!" in a sing-song voice before jacking up an off-balance one-footed three

wow that is rude as hell

they should shoot jokic behind-the-head threes instead

Lebron is really easy to root against, idk why exactly but I think it’s all the GOAT talk that’s been following him since he was literally a teenager combined with his general corniness. But I also root for him at the same time. Kind of a Peyton Manning situation I guess.

there are yung ppl who literally never watched kobe or saw the tail-end of his career as children who swear up and down hes better than lebron, its awful

those young people are poorly informed. I blame their parents.

its true, they do have shitty parents

gabe vincent back tonight, heat need his ball handling

they were so slow getting into their offense last game had a lot of dubious plays, coach nick pointed out that butler was always looking to create a switch every time tatum was on him which makes sense tatum matched up well with him but its maybe a lil overly deliberate to always force the switch

lol stan van has some sort of beef going with herro apparently and hes not backing down

called him sensitive

Stan seems like he woulda been horrible to play for

serious stuff here both teams geeked up

herro is one of the funniest characters in the NBA to me

sartorially he has turned the malibu’s most wanted factor up to 11 these playoffs

thats what started it with stan van lol

calib martin in this series doesnt make sense

jimmy does not look like he has it tonight

yeah the celtics are shooting the hell out of the ball and jimmy seems to have turned into a pumpkin and yet it’s only a 5 point game

its because caleb martin is better than michael jordan

bam’s already sat 2.5 minutes, don’t know if spo can realistically have him go less than 44 tonight and be serious about winning

vincent being able to hit pull up threes is huge for the heat’s offense

tatum bringing out the playoff shots

what the heck

looks more like Kevin Love than Kevin Love does pic.twitter.com/z5wYKlP9xq
