It is the 2018-19 NBA Playoffs discussion thread for hoops friends ONLY

the lineups without simmons are carving the nets up

Crazy the clips are starting two rooks and zubac who is m/l a rook too

That looked like a torn quad?

Hopefully just a strain :/

Draymonds post all star break conditioning is peaking at the right time

Quad for boogie MRI tomorrow

rip

have a feeling the warriors will be fine

Yah just feel bad for him

Blake likely to miss the full first round so he’s out til next season rip

Patrick Beverly is a treasure.

He’s a wild dude

Warriors decided to sleep through the 3rd and are paying the price. Clippers hanging around

Steph emotes like a professional magician during games

Warriors wtffff

This would be the best playoff comeback of all time right

This is insane

the butt foul

Weird ass Durant game

Curry <3

wow @ this clips unit

basketballmer doin real work

Madness

Wow @ Blanche spending $100 per month on free apple music

dropping Gangnam style in the arena rn prob the most unreal thing about this

lol

Unbelievable that just happened

looks like that was the second most points scored by a team in the second half of an NBA playoff game, third most ever in either half

It was 94-63 with 7:31 left in the third quarter. Clippers outscored the Warriors 72-37 over the final 19.5 minutes. Seventy-two points in less than 20 minutes.

whoa was not expecting to wake up to a Clippers victory

on the champs home court in the playoffs, crazy

game winning shot came on a rookie to rookie assist too

I'm not even gonna beat myself up over missing it because I would've been awake until damn near 1:30 I think if I'd stayed up.

don't think GS is in any trouble in this series of course but definitely in favor of anything that might make them exert themselves more than they'd like before having to play Houston.

wow what the hell

watched the comeback part of the game this morning, clippers did most of their damage v a stephless lineup in the third then kinda chipped away the rest of the way, didnt have a lead til the final min

The Clippers’ comeback win was UNBELIEVABLE 👏

🔹 Down 31 points with 7:31 left in the 3rd
🔹 0.01% win probability in the 3rd
🔹 72-37 run to close out the game
🔹 Largest comeback in NBA playoff history pic.twitter.com/LLbjYlmHOV

clips r feisty

they dont really have the talent necessary but they have the right kind of team to beat the dubs, lot of chippy guys to throw at them make them work/think/etc

the whole guard kd w pat bev is pretty bizarre like he scored 21points on 8 shots but also had 9 turnovers, felt like it def disrupted the warriors flow

didnt doc used to throw CP at him? works cos a low center of gravity and KD has a high dribble that the short dudes can poke at. KD just needs to turn and shoot but he's looking to pass these days.

yeah he shd be able to kill that matchup but it does seem like it unnerves him

yeah I remember it too...was it CP? for some reason I’m thinking it was a different matchup but that might be right

true

Warriors All-Star DeMarcus Cousins has been diagnosed with a torn left quad, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Devastating for Cousins, who had MRI early this morning.

im pretty sure it was CP.

But really its just up to KD if he wants to dominate or not. no one can stop him but his own damn self.

7 of the last 10 games KD has taken less than 10 shots
