2018 NBA Playoffs Thread

[B Sox]

It was a damn play....dray is a playmaker and goofed.

Dray ALWAYS catches passes on the run. The hell you talking bout .

But keep thinking 90s basketball players are better shooters than Steph Curry because they played in the 90s....

Looked scared of the moment to me...

 

[k3stacks]

People were wanting players to dive into Curry’s knee a few days ago.

if you talking about timid he dont count. He be saying any and everything

 

[MVP]

I still can't get over how trash Harden has been even by his own playoff standards and Houston still won both games. I can't believe I'm saying this but hella props to Chris Paul. He's almost off of slander watch with this performance. ALMOST.

EDIT: Just seeing he's out for Game 6 and possibly 7. That ******* sucks.

 

[ill steelo]

I can dig that.

Give me Boston's path tonight????? Real Talk. I am interested.

Dare LeBron to set a career playoff high. It’s an elimination game so you know he’s getting shots up anyway. Don’t switch Rozier off of him. Hug JR, Korver, Hill, and Love off ball. Discourage LeBron from passing. Continue to make LeBron defend. He’ll inevitably get tired, Role players have no rhythm because theyve been watching LeBron shoot all game. Cleveland would be lucky to hit 95 in that scenario.

Then just hope Rozier can find his 3 ball on the road and Avoid those terrible Horford post ups when Tristan is on him.

 

[Moheezy]

***** *** ***** wanna show up celebrating an injury.
And blaming it on CP like Quinn Cook aint have his foot under him when he was landing.
Same **** that happened to Kawhi except it's a hamstring.

I looked at the play several times. It seems like he injured it during the spin as he kept his foot off the ground even after the landing.

 

[T0INE]

Ugh at the CP3 news.

Even worse is people celebrating it.

Need Harden to have the game of his life.

 

[carver]

This will be LeBrons last game in a Cleveland Cavaliers jersey.

 

[D StaXX]

Some of y'all lame as hell for celebrating an injury.
That's weak as ****.

 

[gaiiige]

after he just went 5/21 I’m finding it hard to trust Harden in game 6

 

[freeze]

Classy.

Lonzo like impact out there, need him to muddy the pace some more with CP out next gm

 

[dland24]

God loves golden state.

Well he damn near forgot about us for decades, so I for one am not going to apologize for catching breaks the last few years.

 

[wavycrocket]

Classy.

Dude a real one . Never cops pleas, never makes excuses, always takes full accountability when he messes up.

His detractors (Bron fans) make up straw men about him though .

 

[ill steelo]

dray isnt put in the position of playmaker in this series. KD decided to play like bron and run the offense through him and not trusting his teammates or making quick decisions. he reverted back to his okc day

The Rockets are switching everything. Steph runs a pnr with Dray, they switch. Dray has the ball, Steph & Klay running pindowns & curls, Rockets switch.

He’s not magic or Nash creating plays by himself he’s entirely dependent on ppl trapping Steph and guys getting open in Kerr’s system, all of which are being blown up by Houston’s defense.

All of this

[P C H]

I don't think there's a chance that CP plays in game 6 or 7

That being said, Rockets game plan is the same. Defend like crazy, attack mismatches with EG and Harden, and hoist up 3's. They can win one of the next two IMO. Don't think they will, but definitely don't think it's an Auto that GSW is winning the series given what we've seen.

This series has made no sense at all so who knows.

 

[SadBoi]

CP3 already a top 5 PG of all time with that shimmy over Curry.

Magic
OG IT
Big O
Stockton
Paul

 

[All_$tar1997]

Cp definitely not playing game 7 neither.

 

[Quincy McCall]

Wish Wade would've made a play for Hou and gave them an extra ballhandler

Uncle Luc, Gordon and/or GG's going to have to come up big on both ends

 

[Benny Hinn]

CP3

Crown this f*b already

 

[youngwolf]

What makes matters worse is that I don't think the rest of the Rockets believe in Haroudini. There were a number of times yesterday where they were looking him off or freezing him out of the offense.

 

[dman14]

warriors will definitely be heavily favored the next two gms. interesting if we get a vegas screwjob

 

[Peep Game]

Doesnt he shoot better away?
Peep Game

Feels like forever nice he has, but either way, the answer to this game isn’t running a 6 msn rotation and extending everybody’s minutes, you need to expand that rotation.

This actually didn’t happen, as he still had the ball in his hands a ton late in the game.

 

[drewsone]

im so mad at this cp3 news man
he really cursed smh
