Oh look Paul is injuried again in the playoffs, what a shocker

Bryan_Wilson · 05-26-2021, 07:50 PM

No idea why people keep saying Hawks and Knicks will go 7 games. Hawks have a ton of shooters and scorers. Knicks look lost with Randle playing like hot trash.

Knicks making a big run. I still think ATL wins the series though.

BPo001 · 05-26-2021, 08:37 PM

MSG is rocking. I’m hoping Mavs fans bring similar energy. Hopefully the Dallas fans show up on time for the game.

BPo001 · 05-26-2021, 08:58 PM

Knicks go on a huge run while Trae is on the bench. Can’t be the Hawks coach didn’t bring him back in sooner.

Bryan_Wilson · 05-26-2021, 09:53 PM

Well that didn't age well lol.

Randle finally showed up some and Bullock got a little hot.

DevinHarriswillstart · 05-26-2021, 11:16 PM

What happened to John Collins? No way I'm giving him the max.

2 shots? 14 min? I really like Collins as a player, but that’s odd. I was just thinking yesterday if he would be a good trade candidate for KP if we were to sign Markaneen.

The game was less than two minutes old when Collins picked up his second foul and was subbed out for the rest of the first quarter. He managed but the first minute in the second quarter before picking up a third foul, pretty much ending his half. He spaced fouls 3, 4 and 5 throughout the second half, but they weighed him down nonetheless.

Young player and foul trouble.

EricaLubarsky · 05-27-2021, 01:02 PM

Seems like Randle wasn't super effective against Collins s, but he's young and doesn't know how to avoid fouls.

FreshJive · 05-27-2021, 01:28 PM

Supposedly, Collins and Young haven’t exactly been getting along. Which is why he was thought to be available for trade, and why Atlanta may not sign him.

BPo001 · 05-27-2021, 09:17 PM

Vogel just used his coaches challenge 15 sec into the game and lost.

Bryan_Wilson · 05-27-2021, 11:53 PM

Booker with a frustration 6th foul turned flagrant 2 ejection. Crowder playing like shit saying magic words to get tossed. CP3 on sidelines talking.

Suns looked like an inexperienced playoff team to close that out.

Bryan_Wilson · 05-27-2021, 11:54 PM

And the Heat are trash. I hope they get swept.

I'm glad people are finally seeing how ridiculously overrated Jae Crowder is.

sefant77 · 05-28-2021, 06:30 PM

Honestly because the ejection was meaningless because just seconds to play, they should suspend Booker for the next time. Was dangerous garbage

Jayinem · 05-29-2021, 02:06 PM

Mark Eaton has died at age 64 after crashing his bicycle. They said no vehicles were involved. Seems a bit odd.

Wonder if this will give extra motivation to the Jazz. If we can beat the Clippers and if they win their series we'd have to face the in round 2.

Playoff Jimmy about six weeks from demanding a trade

Jimmy for KP, or anyone other than Luka for that matter. Get er done Donnie.

BPo001 · 06-01-2021, 10:09 PM

Lebron trying to play facilitator instead of shouldering the scoring load, and nobody on the Lakers can hit a shot.

BPo001 · 06-02-2021, 09:44 AM

Danny Ainge steps down. Brad Stevens to take over as head of operations. C’s now looking for a head coach.

Makes me wonder what happens to Vic

Perfect landing spot for Carlisle. Gets the shit off Cuban's shoe, and everyone saves a little face.

BPo001 · 06-03-2021, 10:01 PM

Portland is out. Seems like it might be time for them to blow it up. I’d imagine McCollum could net them a big name to change things up next to Dame.

AD trying to play, but he went down 5 min in, and certainly looks like he is done for the night and likely series. He’s in pain. On the other side CP3 keeps rubbing his bum shoulder.

EricaLubarsky · 06-03-2021, 10:11 PM

Is LeBron done?

CJ for Jimmy. Jimmy wants mega extension though. He’s back to being his usual hateable self.

EricaLubarsky · 06-04-2021, 10:30 AM

KP, Kleber, Trey for McCollum/Nurk

Jack.Kerr · 06-04-2021, 12:42 PM

Carlisle for Tacko Fall.

I don’t think they’d do that. They will have better options for CJ.

Fine. Throw in cash and the rights to Petteri Koponen.

Not only would they not do it....they'd laugh at us......for me to get rid of McCollum I need to be getting a star....McCollum would be part of a package probably involving Anfernee Simons since he has potential.

I think they keep Simons (who is still young and is a sort of CJ-lite) and re-sign Norm and get 80% of what McCollum gives them between the two of them. If they did CJ for Butler they would have CJ floor spacing and scoring covered between the 3 of them with better defense.

Harden out 45 seconds into G1 with hamstring injury.
Update 1: Harden out for rest of G1.
Update 2: Harden leaves arena to go for MRI.

amazing how coaching changes can help change a teams season. Case in point, look at Atlanta right now.

That combined with the fact that their front office actually added guys we could have tried to sign - Bogdonavich, Sweet Lou Williams etc. They have quickly assembled in 12 months a contender around Trae Young where as the MBT has farted away draft choices and passed on quality mid level free agents in hopes that 2021 would be a big summer of free agency.... Whoops.
