NBA Playoffs

The real flopper here is Jae Crowder of the Suns. I watched one of the games with Dallas, and if somebody was close to him he would go down. Free throw. It's a good thing he sucks at FT's.
 
Looking for a better performance from the Celtics today…

As far as the Dubs-Mavs series, it’s time to get out the broom…
Hopefully the Timelord is playing. The threat of the lob keeps those late double teams that turn into turnovers from happening. I think they should play Brown at the 4 when Williams is out. He can be the designated lob target. Plus, he won't dribble as much. He was a walking turnover on Sat.

it’s frustrating watching Brown, and to a lesser extent Tatum drive into a double team hoping to draw a foul…
 
Great bounce back game for the C's...
RW II is the straw that stirs the drink for the C's in this series. Miami has no answer for his presence right now on either end of the floor. Pritchard and White can't guard Olidipo but RW II neutralizes Bam and does not allow the Heat to double when they want and with whom they want because of the lob play. I think that there was only 1 lob last night but Tatum and Brown combined for 4 TO's rather than 14 the previous game. Adebayo went from 31 pts to 9.

Jimmy is hurting for sure and he may improve with some rest but I like the C's if Williams is healthy.

Spoelstra is as good of a coach as there is in the NBA right now too. Miami may come up with some zone concept at some point. He is a master tactician.
 
If Jimmy can't get healthier quick, this will be over quick.

I'm not sure anyone can beat the Dub's though...
 
Looks like the Mavs are going to beat them at least once. Start of the 4th, 70-99.

I think the Cs can beat them in a series. Hope we get to see it.
 
Heat look flat....not good. If this continues, series is over.
 
Never paid much attention to NBA or its coaches but Steve Kerr said a lot of things yesterday that needed to be said. He made a fan. Unfortunately it appears that a bunch of legislators weren't listening or didn't like what they heard.
 
Ever since that Payton Pritchard leg kick, Butler just doesn't have his legs. Series over.

Go Dubs. Kick those Celtics arses....

This probably deserves its own thread due to the gravity it it all. But, people need to vote as if their kid's lives depended on it, because they do.

Agreed. It's just despicable. However, that thread wouldn't last an hour if posted, so I'm not going to bother. And frankly, I think I'd prefer to be ignorant on what half of these folks' opinions are on the whole situation....

Back to the NBA:

great seeing Klay have a great night closing out Dallas...amazing comeback....Dub's, however, will have their hands full with the C's length, great defense, and 3 shooters...whoever wins the Chip' this season will have earned it...hoping for the Heat to force a game 7..hats off to the Heat, walking wounded giving their all'n..huge props
 
all right....best of one! Let's go! Jimmy effing Buckets!



I'm glad they proved me wrong.
 
Not playoff related, but I saw Bob Lanier passed away yesterday.
One of my all time favorite players to watch.
SF

I think it was his size 22s that were on display when the Freedom Train came to town. I still have the commemorative coin and guide book.
 
Jimmy Buckets showed up big…he had a monster game when they needed one. It seems home court for both teams is not an advantage…
