The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

[Vincent Van Goat]

Made no sense. It’s a terrible matchup for them

They saw a team that had to scarp and claw their way into the playoffs to begin with

They saw the dissension

Saw the two big lineup never work in the regular season

Saw Anthony Edwards. Ratsull. Austin rivers. And naz Reid all say the two big lineup isn’t working and it’s difficult to play around. In plain words. To a real reporter. Which was printed on paper. Tweeted in tweets. Posted in this very thread

They saw this. And read this. And know this

Yall are brave staying up for that game. I was out by Q2

1) Carried a team without Luka to beat the Jazz (when everyone thought that series was over once Luka got hurt).

2) Have a better 2022-2023 season.

3) Numbers.


I’ll give you Mitch right now, no to Garland tho.


And HELL NO to Randle being better than Brunson. What in the HELL was that take?

That Jazz team was fractured

How he’s having better season if Garland’s team has the better record?

Their numbers are pretty much similar but Garland been doing this longer

You don’t win game 1 w/o Dubious or even this series.Hes your #1 option.

This, is brave:

Yogurt and Kat vs Joker is interesting. They’ve at least got the size and strength to compete.

All that, plus I feel like Denver was basically just coasting for the last couple months of the year after they developed the big gap for the 1 seed.

Folks thought they were in decline or something and susceptible.

And they have the exact personnel to excel against the wolves defense which is missing their best defender

If Denver can’t in in 6 games something devastating must have happened or Jokic isn’t the guy we think he is

 

[amitt5504]

Gotta figure Oladipo's gonna be back in rotation after Herro went down, he's a better defender than Duncan

Duncan might still be the best play

watching 3 straight nba games is crazy no matter the time i cant watch more than 2

 

[T0INE]

Tapped out around the end of the first quarter of T'Wolves-Nuggets last night. T0INE

Tapped out during the first quarter of Heat/Bucks but woke byke up to catch most of the Clippers/Suns and stayed up to watch all of Wolves/Nuggets.

Had the latter game on mute though cuz I knew the beatdown was imminent.

 

[ballinsam23]

Woke up to see Kyle Anderson getting into a pushing match with another player.

He needs to chill out, stays taking Ls.

 

[dman14]

KD is going to have to defend Kawhi for most of the series and take on that challenges. CP3 should not be playing 39 minutes in a playoff game Give Lee/Payne some minutes.

Bucks defense on Jimmy Butler/Bam was disgusting. They game plan was to leave them open most of the game

Cam is injured right now. That hammy might not last with no extra rest days between games

 

[pmatic]

Games are every other day for Suns-Clippers besides a three day gap between 4 and 5. Good thing KD got plenty of rest this season with all the injuries.

Thought the Clips messed their chance up when I went to sleep

nba has a scheduling problem

game 3 - kings warriors & suns clippers at the same time on thurs

some of it might have to do with so many west coast teams, but nba also has to be more creative if it wants to maximize viewership and draw revenue from dr pimple popper ads

 

[don ramon]

nevermind

 

[ballinsam23]

The Nuggets Wolves series shouldn’t even be televised.

 

[WASHED KING]

Didn't watch the Denver game. Honestly didn't matter.

READY TO LIGHT THE BEAM TONIGHT

BEAM BYKE

KANGZ IN 3

 

[WASHED KING]

The Suns got worse trading for KD, lateral move at best.

Mikal and Cam combined for 48 in their game 1.

They have to compete with the NHL and deal with arena scheduling too.
