2022 OFFICIAL NBA PLAYOFF THREAD - NBA FINALS TIME - GS 4-2 - STEVE GETS #4……ON NT - SUMMER JAM SCREEN RECEIPTS INCOMING……

[703 hwy]

Officially a wrap now. Cavs by 20

 

[lawdog1]

They would have called the flagrant if Clint didn’t get hurt.

Also, that was just weird. How Capella pulled him down and then just completely lost track of where Mobley was falling. Don’t see that often.

 

[freeze]

Hopefully just a hyper extension for Capela and no career altering tears or anything.

 

[flyerthandelta]

If that wasn’t some karma how you hurt your own self

 

[pmatic]

There were no other moves to be made besides signing a guy to trade after 2 years? Don’t wanna play free agency the next year & search for someone to actually add to the core? Paying that much money for a non-core player is ridiculous.

Your franchise player does not defend, you a win a title with him with at a minimum 3 other great defenders on the court, preferably 4. Dropping $20M/yr on a 30+ year old non-all star who can’t move his feet… just to ultimately trade him later on is silliness.

They had young guys that they wanted to play so they didn't want to disrupt their development by signing a guy that would warrant playing time over them.

I don't think Christian Wood or Jerami Grant had any interest in being backups to John Collins. I think they expressed interest in signing Gordon Hayward, but imagine if they handed him a $120M contract instead.

 

[darthska]

Trae just looking for the refs to bail him out. It’s time to play ball

[ill steelo]

Swear Hunters missed like 4 open 3s tonight

Him + Lauri on wide open jumpers has really been the difference

Both guys will continue getting open looks, Hawks (Gallo + Hunter) gotta knock em down.

 

[Armada]

We already struggle to get stops with Capela cause he’s the only legit defender(I just don’t believe in hunter anymore). I just don’t see how we get stops we just gotta hope they miss and that ain’t a recipe for success

 

[pmatic]

Welp.

 

[Coupé It]

EYE have seen enough….

Just did my bracket….


My guy champcruthik is in there! Miss you fam!

Fair, Heyward would’ve been nightmare Also they didn’t necessarily need to spend every cent of the room in that single off-season. Still had 1 more year before Collins was due.

Bogey was a great move & that was plenty. If you can’t get someone to add to the core the prudent move is to sit on the space & try again next year.

 

[ill steelo]

A little surprised Capela didn’t move out of the way, so was Jalen.

 

[MajinZuub]

3-17 from 3 is pretty rough. The fact it’s only a 10 point game is kinda crazy with the turnover differential too

 

[Coupé It]

Garland having a rough shooting night but still playing great.

If his shot starts dropping…..

 

[picasso swerve]

Mobley look a like 27 as opposed to 20.

 

[Armada]

What was that Huetuer

 

[pmatic]

Do we have to get every call "right" with review?

 

[freeze]

These refs mega garbage. Zach zarbo too

 

[Public Enemy]

You can't call that a foul man. He was just going up. Incidental contact.

 

[Armada]

Come on man what is that call

 

[picasso swerve]

Refs wylin smh. That shoudda been a no call.

 

[pmatic]

Sweet, more air time for Zach Zarba.

 

[703 hwy]

He was grazed. Play on

 

[elpablo21]

That’s a bucket man

 

[OTG]

These refs are dog****
