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

[Blue Mamba]

Granted he was a kid and I didn’t watch much NBA this season…

There’s no way LaMelo Ball is better than Harden right? Tried to sell him a pair of some Harden 6s but he was set on his mom finding him a pair of LaMelos. Said Harden is “trash.”

Lamelo is more marketable

Way too soon as far as the bolded.
We all know NBA's marketing machine.

He does. Hes a very fun player to watch who puts up numbers all across the board. If he keeps this up and gets better hes got next next. Next right now is still the likes of Luka, Book, Tatum, etc.

Why are the Mavericks' rim microphones so loud? Here's why you hear every swish

The sound of the ball swishing through the net at the American Airlines Center is easily noticeable. There's a reason for that.

Got nothing to do with length with Brunson. Luka was moving the ball way more and much faster. Brunson was more aggressive, 20 + shots, not just standing in the corner or getting the ball late.

Luka gonna need to trust his teammates like this if they want any chance at a close series.

I swear that's the first 3 I've ever seen Reggie Bullock make

Man shoots damn near 40% for his career and I’ve never seen him make two in a row.

 

[frshstunna]

They haven’t confirmed they do but someone locally did an interview with the audio guy about it awhile back and he just kinda chuckled when they asked like “we would never!”

Probly had to say that so he wouldn’t get in trouble like when the Kings was messing with Russ after his misses

 

[elpablo21]

That Sonics jersey in the cut

 

[WASHED KING]

Lamelo is better

Fixed

It’s easy to trust your teammates at home and the game going in your favor from jump

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

In the playoffs, the team that attacks more usually wins.

PHX shoots damn near 50% from deep yet they lose convincingly.

They took the ball out of his hands more early and he’s obviously still got some legs in 4Q

Phoenix tried to attack him and a couple of possessions weren’t great but he could at least move and offer SOME resistance down the stretch.

Gotta keep doing it.

 

[iamjusayn]

Has any rapper ever attended an nba game lowkey in lowkey clothes no jewelry all out?

 

[lovehateself]

Have they heard of Anthony Edwards?

He must work At metro PCS

 

[darthska]

think both sixers and mavericks win today

noble-damus!

Lamelo is more marketable

Wouldn't argue against it. Harden is exiting his prime.

He does. Hes a very fun player to watch who puts up numbers all across the board. If he keeps this up and gets better hes got next next. Next right now is still the likes of Luka, Book, Tatum, etc.

If we're being honest, Booker is a tier below Luka/Tatum. And LaMelo isn't touching those 3.
The Hornets as a unit need success before we can truly say he's got next.

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

CP0 losing on his birthday? Inject the haterade into my veins.

 

[nomadicsole21]

Way too soon as far as the bolded.
We all know NBA's marketing machine.

He needs one more year forsure, but his stocks is projecting up and up. Plus the Hornets just a fun team to watch...they either gonna win by 20 or lose by 20

LaMelo is also a by product of this social media generation. He's had millions of people follow him since like 14 or 15 and to see him grow into everything people been expecting of him just fuels his hype.

 

[N41D]

You come into the night telling me the Mavs are gonna shoot 30% from 3 and basically control the game from the jump I’d have told you to pass the good stuff.

 

[TimelessClassic]

3 teams scoring under 100 tonight? 2002 Era basketball scores

Not arguing if Booker is in the same tier, just saying those group of youngings have next, or the potential of “next”. Melo in the next group. Hes only coming up on his third year.

Him and Zion been the biggest social stars of their gen, Melo being bigger cause of his family and tv shows and all that but its good to see him actually thrive in the NBA game. Hornets are def one of the most fun teams to watch, Melo playing like every game a pickup game. Not exactly a good thing but hey ill watch.

 

[cool...but rude]

Lets go Mavs

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Gotta love playoff basketball and these low scoring games.

Embiid held heat to 4-17 as a primary defender
