The Official NBA Season Thread: Puerto Rico vs Serbia at 11:15 | USA vs South Sudan at 3

[B Sox]

Couple dumb shots by JT but otherwise a very good half.

 

[green rhino123]

Nice little game we got here!

Would be nice if Derrick White wasn’t shooting like he’s blind.

D White needs to step it up in the 2nd half.

Love these players ESPN is cycling through, the non champions

Stephen A in the shnozberry suit

Both teams shooting exactly 33% from 3. Happen to see Tatum come alive. Let's get this 3-0 lead Cs

 

[T0INE]

Celtics in a great spot.

Withstood that early Mavs run and Pale George is actually shooting well for a change.

Luka doing Luka tings (gotta chill on the crying) and Myrie finally showed up for the Finals.

Unless some combination of the Mavs' others step up in the second half things will get dicey.

This could all be moot though if Full Tatum makes an appearance or the Celtics otherwise go full goofy.

Welcome to a world of nothing but these level of studio shoes if Inside the NBA is done

They won a ring with him as their 3rd best player though . Milwaukee know they goofed. Sacrificed offense for defense

And he was a 40% shooter from the field after they won the title the next 3 seasons. Third option can’t be a 40/32 guy.

Look at his splits now with lower usage. He basically doesn’t miss.

 

[chao7]

Went back and looked up Jrue's draft. 2009 was pretty good

 

[pmatic]

Can’t rely on him to be your 3rd best player but as your 4th/5th he’s the goat role player

They won a ring with him as their 3rd best player though . Milwaukee know they goofed. Sacrificed offense for defense

The Bucks went after a second option (Dame) because Middleton kept getting hurt and Jrue showed he couldn't be one.

If only Johnny Flynn and reke panned out

I remember their were talks of who's was going to be better between Flynn and Steph

 

[elpablo21]

Tatum usually plays like he's 5'2"

But he's playing like he's 6'5" so far

I respect the growth

 

[frink85]

TIL

 

[B Sox]

Luka’s defense is putrid

No way you can just overlook it because of the offense.

 

[rolaholic]

Why does it feel like the tide has turned for good?

 

[chao7]

Boston looking crispy to start the 3rd quarter

 

[elpablo21]

Jrue let Jimmy cook him and then shoot 15% from 3 on purpose to get out of Milwaukee

Crazy finesse

 

[elpablo21]

Why does it feel like the tide has turned for good?

A superteam and heavy favorites playing like there's no excuses

 

[2163O1baller90]

How do you think the twolves would have matched with the Celtics?

 

[SORIANOTRON]

Dorris sounds like an AI chatbot

 

[pmatic]

Luka playing defense like the Mavs are down 0-3 and 25 point deficit in the fourth quarter.

 

[RustyShackleford]

Luka is playing unserious right now

 

[picasso swerve]

Why the **** is THJR in the game again? Put Exum back in, or where the hell is Hardy? You play him a ton in the Minny series and all of a sudden hes chopped liver?

 

[B Sox]

How’s that not an and 1?!?!?
