OFFICIAL 2020 NBA PLAYOFF THREAD - DISNEY COVID INVITATIONAL EDITION - MAMBA FOREVER - LAKERS WIN THE RONA RAND - ALA FOREVER

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Javale will run the floor in the 15 minutes he'll play, and Dwight should wear Jokic down on box outs/defense in the 15 minutes he'll play. Then have AD at center at the end of each quarter as usual.

Exactly. And yet some Laker fans say Javale and Dwight will be useless against Denver lol

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

This. Although with the propensity of both Javele and Dwert to pick up silly fouls it'll probably be closer to 10 minutes.

You wanna bet?

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Dwight and Javale bout to shock the NT world in this series.

Eye will watch it unfold along with the rest of y'all who think the Lakers bigs dont matter in this small ball modern NBA lol

Lakers bout to put the small ball era and the disillusioned perception to rest

This man is out here arguing like this Is 1990 and not 2020. MVP even agreed with P’s 15 minute prediction but said he could see it being less due to foul trouble yet Clint Eastwood is trying to make a bet with him

Should of did this in February .... he would of gotten to the basket at will .... during those times where they couldn’t score a basket.

I believe in tiers when it comes to ranking players. There’s just too many variables.
Tier 1 is Lebron and Kawhi, and KD/Steph when healthy.
Both these Bigs are in the 2nd tier. Depends what you want out of your big but for me I’m taking Joker

Not only that but he somehow believes playing 3.5 minutes a quarter is significant. And I can guarantee that unless it's a blowout, neither of them will see any of that time of it's a close game down the stretch.

 

[atlsfinest]

he's def stepped that up

I give Kuzma a lot of credit for how he's transitioned his role. It would have been very easy for him to pout like a lot of young players do when they don't get touches and shots. Instead he's changed his game and found a role (hustle, improved defense and cutting to the basket, etc) that helps a championship team win.

I have no clue what kind of shape Hayward is going to be in, but his game is theoretically tailor made to beat a zone. He's also averaged 22 and 8 against Miami this year. Don't expect him to play much more than like 15 min or so out of the gate though.

Team just can't keep getting out-toughed, or whatever you want to call it, in the 2nd half of these games. It's not like they are at a talent disparity. Dominated for the majority of Game 1 and had a huge lead in Game 2. Shoutout to Miami for what they've done thus far.

Tier 1 is Lebron and Kawhi, and KD/Steph when healthy.

Tier 1 is LeBron and KD.

 

[tay1]

Kawhi is in tier 2 after what just happened

 

[friscostylez]

Tier 1 is LeBron and KD.

Why is KD tier 1 when he hasn't proven to win without Curry?

Did you read when ya boy MVP said the other day that Javale and Dwight would only play garbage time minutes against Denver or you choosing to ignore it like he did as well?

Lol

Be honest, you think Dwight gonna average more than 10 min a game or na? Lol

If you guarantee that Dwight will average 10 min a game or less, then why you scared to put up $100 if you so confident? Lol

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Imagine thinking that it would be insignificant for the Lakers if Dwight played 14 min a game guarding Jokic and created enough disruption that Joker wouldn't be able to be as effective against LAL like he was vs LAC

News Flash: if Dwight played 15 min every game, his presence on the floor guarding Jokic leads to Jokic tiring quicker or Jokic being unable to spearhead his offense effectively, and if it leads to a Lakers series win, then it can only mean that Dwight the Big can do what 2 stiffs Zubac and Gobert couldnt do.

 

[atlsfinest]

We ain't supposed to be here! Down O-2, The Celtics still have better championship odds than either Western conference team

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Cats in here acting like teams never tried the small ball run n gun act in the 90s and early 00s and failed because other teams had bigs who could play small ball too and still be effective lmaoo.

Look up Don Nelson, Run TMC, and MDA's Suns and tell me if they ever won a chip lol

To be clear, the last conservative Boston had was Mikey. He was run out of town by KEMBA SLICE. I Nter last night said that Mikey was from Chatam which was a disgrace. Mikey grew up mining coal in Waltham and is proud of his roots. I am proud of Mikey and wish him nothing but the best.

Here's the full MVP voting.The voting between LeBron and Giannis was closer than I thought. Who gave Harden a first place vote?
