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

yeah true

Nugs bench 4/20 not gonna get it done. Wasted an all time Jokic game

at the very least the questions about whether jokic was playoff ready should be laid to rest

hes been great, lamarus lit him up tonight tho

tha nuggs went 4/20 huh sick

pop coming out super grumpy in this press conf despite just winning by 20 lol

so intense get him some nice burrata and pinot grigio

He needs to spend a summer with Nellie

opening bottles of fine wine, sharing them, and getting wiggy with it

hes been great, lamarus lit him up tonight tho

just watched a "full game highlights" youtube and jokic was actually fine on D, plumlee on the other had was getting absolutely targeted

Game 7 means the Blazers can rest, study film and be ready for either the Nuggets or Spurs after they beat each other up on Saturday.

was prob a lot to expect the nuggets to win twice in san antonio in 3 games after not winning once in 8 years or whatever it was

should be a good game 7

i personally enjoyed the NFL draft and the knowledge that the spurs lead had grown to 20

are you supposed to peel the rind off of the basketball before eating it?

clips still getting easy looks off the simplest of actions

me: gets easy looks off the simplest of actions
kevin durant: 38

lol

so trapping steph and sagging insanely far off dray/iggy is pretty much the way

iggy can make you pay for that, but not so much dray

draymond show in the house lol

im giving the clippers a standing ovation

i am steve ballmer and i am clapping with my son for these clippers

im steve ballmer and steve ballmers son and we are clapping and laughing, and now we are crying

I am the billionaire “steven ballmer” of Apple computers and I am purchasing all basketball teams and changing the name of the sport to ballmerball

this is me with the ball

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are both questionable for Game 1 tomorrow. Kerr called Thompson’s sprain “significant.”

the spurs will win the west

Raptors are ballin they might be good

siakam high key turning into an all star was unexpected but he takes this team to another level

yeah philly's supposed to be the super starting lineup team but i think the raptors' might just be better

if they keep this up idk how anyone in the east can stop them

unless of course giannis dunks on them so hard that they die which is a distinct possibility

I just don’t trust any team fully that’s left in the offs

76ers might be good too idk

kawhi could be the best player in any series going forward including the finals... i think the raptors are really dangerous if he’s playing like this

the guys on the sixers like ennis and bolden do not look like they should be on the floor in this series

do the sixers think they’re gonna win this series by posting up embiid on gasol?

im finally on board with the sixers firing brett brown after this year

Gasol trade looking smart. He shut down Gooch and is good vs embiid

this really is gonna be a slog of starting 5's, the benches on both sides right now, woof

sixers need a whole new scheme basically but it's hard to fire your coach when the team is relatively successful and you can kinda blame the lack of personnel outside the core

im not saying he will, but he should

jimmy butler has 6 points on 3-6 shooting

i’m not sure the sixers have a coaching problem as much as they have a roster problem even with their best 5

Agree not sure what a different coach could do with this roster other than some other rotations which may not change anything

not sure what is supposed to be hugely appealing to jimmy butler about this situation aside from the money

get like 15 out of rhythm shots per game in a janky clogged halfcourt offense

I think he leaves
