The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Begins | Embiid Debut | Klay Return

Last night showed why any prediction you have on the Thunder's post season chances is valid

- Can blow leads quickly
- Can overcome deficits quickly
- Small and give up rebounds by design, my advantage (fast, lead in forcing to's and points off those to's) vs your advantage. Gave up 31 boards to Nurk and still won
- 2 closers (SGA with 35, 11 in the 4th) and JDubb (Jalen Williams, Santa Clara guard/forward) with 22 who both shoot better in the 4th
- Floor shrinks whenever Giddey is in because teams dare him to shoot (made 3 last night, minutes were still short because AWiggins was killing on O and D)
- Depth- small depth mostly, but when Coach D is willing to pull who/what isn't working and find a combo that works
- Hayward is washed. He has only even attempted 1 3 since he has been here. That's literally what he was supposed to provide, some people even thought he;d supplant Giddey in the starting lineup

Oh hell no :rollin

The Cavs have gotta get it back in blood in the playoffs man because they're the Knicks sons as things stand rn
 
He is a fraud.

Along with the rest of that team.
I mean you’re a Knicks fan so being emotional about it since yall have been matched up with them :lol:

Don’t think he’s a fraud. He’s just not as dynamic as you ideally want/need him to be.

Mitchell is definitely a tier above. Don’t think you’re ultimately going very far with 2 small guards, no wings, and 2 bigs that can’t do much but dunk.

Knick fan has nothing to do with it man.

I really think they’re a fraudulent from top to bottom.

(Besides Donovan Mitchell.)

Why would anyone trust that team? Garland? Mobley? Allen?

Ironically, feel like there are similarities between the Donovan Mitchell Jazz & the Donovan Mitchell Cavs; and they don't have anything to do with him

He’s very good but not good enough to just be surrounded by a bunch of 1 dimensional players.
