#focus#mustwin#playoffs#drama? : 2013 NBA playoffs

gd Thibs has that cinematic war general voice.

HAHAHAH yes!!!

oh my god john milius directs a chicago bulls in congo movie

nate robinson fight against tigers obviously

lol at nate presumably complaining to the ref and dogging it there

lol Brooklyn

goddamn man fucking up a potential comeback play like that by fouling

what?

three-pointer made it a four point game with 26 secs left, but some net fouled belinelli. Belinelli hit both fts and that made a comeback p much impossible.

(didn't catch who fouled)

the bulls could have just run the clock out though. had to foul there, no choice

best moment of the playoffs/board description status

in other news my brother just saw birdman at the mall, which is like a top 1% celebrity sighting

xp oh yeah true, brainfart

I love Noah so much

bulls, v impressed

imagine they had all their dudes

if deng and heinrich are still out i think they maaayyybe win one game vs the heat, but it will be a fun series

Totally crazy that Chi pulls off any of these wins. Kinda feel like all Thibs needs is a 50% Noah and four warm bodies to win games. 24/14/6 Noah games are things of beauty. Also crazy that Butler is playing 48min playoff games now-- pretty wonderful to watch an unheralded 2nd year dude be forced into the center of things and hold it together like Butler has.

butler just looks so smooth out there (has all year). just a natural baller

Man looking back at the 1st round, every assclown team lost except for the Knicks (Nuggs/GSW was a non-assclown series).

butler driving to the basket looks so dangerous, high PPP play im sure

Speaking of crazy PPP stats: Miami producing 1.68pts every time LeBron simply drives the ball.

Ugh ne1 here in Dolan's bl0oze band and could maybe score a nice courtside seat at MSG for me? Also v v v willing to be snuck in, via laundry basket prison trick or via sewer system a la Trailer Park Boys.

looooool okc.

HOLY SHIT OKC STOP SHOOTING LOW% JUMPERS

Discounting inbound passes have the Thunder passed more than once in a possession ffs?

marc taking the ball from durant <3

Wish there were a way to outlaw that dumb swing-move foul.

marc's sweet lefty hook shot is legit and he doesn't use it enough

I thought they explicitly said before the season that they weren't calling the rip through move a foul anymore? Why is Durant getting that in round 2? Such shit refs.

joakim noah is a demon from hell sent here to torture fans of 29 other teams but he is amazing to watch

and thibs is still underrated, he turned ray allen and carlos boozer into average defenders and toppled a hundred million dollars worth of nets with half a noah, booz and his bench scrapings, which seemed specifically assembled before the season to tell d rose to stay the hell away and rehab

shaq puts more effort into these buick commercials than he did into the last four years of his career

thabeet vs marc gasol. even refs cant ruin this

Gasol has a beautiful Robert Parish rainbow set shot. warms my heart.

no they said it just wasn't a shooting foul. it's still a normal foul

Grizz looking good if they can beat OKC at home w/o a big game from Conley.

yeah if they win game 1 i think it's over. kevin martin's continuing to play really well too

if lebron loses to dirk and marc gasol what justice in this world

MVP results. someone voted melo #1

hahaha probably some asshole writer in ny

swear to god, they just need to rename the mvp into "BEST PLAYER AWARD" so ppl dont get all fuckin philosophical "ah yes but um...what exactly do we mean by VALUE...what makes a man VALUABLE" *steve nash wins 2 mvps, every PG in the league blows by him for an easy layup*

hahaha probably some asshole writer in ny

apparently all of them are denying it haha

also, only players and coaches should get to vote, all media members fuck off

great game on rn btw

xp NO!!

kobe would have like 20 MVPs

MARC

i don't think ny writers have a territoriality over their players like a writer in a smaller market would

the heat opened at -2500 for the series against the bulls (they were -6500 against the bucks)

perkins is so bad

that was a terrible shot by tayshaun tho with marc posting KD up
