The Official NBA Thread: Celtics Lead 3-1 in the NBA Finals | RIP Jerry West

So foul

 

[toneboi76]

This is an extremely dirty play by Gobert

 

[ill steelo]

Playing out exactly to the script.

You can’t stop them at the rim, so you have to limit their attempts…. Which means conceding 3s.

Only 20 paint points, but 20 three point attempts so far, most of them wide open

Dallas finished with 40 points in the paint…. But it came at a steep cost

This was the checkmate game.

Drop coverage but nobody’s actually jumping = endless lob dunks.

Hedge the Luka PnR = Big too slow to contain the ball, more dunks

Trap the Luka PnR = endless threes from the corner and everywhere else.

Switch = blowby or more uncontested 3s.

Limit Rudy’s minutes = Luka/Kyrie hunt the smallest guy on the court, blowby drive and kick, or draw 2 and make the play.

Tough time in the league to build a team You create your roster with Jokic & Jamal Murray in mind.

You lock down Murray, but the guys who did that are too small for Luka.

Unlike Denver, Dallas is starting every PnR at the logo and your center shouldn’t be coming out that far.

LUKA NEEDS HIS OWN NIKE SIGNATURE.

They need saving.

 

[HIM]

Is there a timetable for Finch? Team just hasn’t been the same since he got injured. Need him 100% healthy

 

[geno90221]

I told y’all in 2020 in 3-4 years Luka will be considered…

Luka chose to go to JB

He has a sig line

They sit on shelves mostly

Pushing someone while they're in the air like that is nastee work.

Dirty *** Goober.

Luka chose to go to JB

Because he’s on Jordan.

 

[ALNotSure]

Between kicking Lively in the balls and kneeing him in the head Big Purr was content going 0/8 from 3.

Beside Ant who's suppose to generate FT attempts for the Wolves?

Goober?

Yeah just highlighting reasons for the loss

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Acting like this hasn’t been the case for the entirety of that fool’s career

 

[Coupé It]

LD: Where you from?

Ant: America

LD: Sounds wack




THIS GUY IS A MENACE

 

[headdetective]

Idk it’s ever been put on display as much as much as this series though

 

[pmatic]

LD: Where you from?

Ant: America ATLANTA

LD: Sounds wack




THIS GUY IS A MENACE

Donovan Mitchell

 

[RustyShackleford]

Because he’s on Jordan.

This logic makes zero sense

Luka isn't popular enough to make a Jordan sig move

But on Nike basketball, he will save them

Sure, ok buddy.

Bookers not saving them, that’s for damn sure.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

They need brunson, smh

 

[Coupé It]

Damn I should have said that fire P. You got it.

 

[RustyShackleford]

Bookers not saving them, that’s for damn sure.

I didn't say anything about Booker

I don't think Nike thinks any athlete will save them. I don't think they need saving.

But I would guess they are happy that Booker's shoes sell out.

Instead of demanding a Brunson sig, you outchea caping for Luka. Nasty work

 

[elpablo21]

I am very relaxed and happy, don’t you worry about that lol

The Notorious VVG putting cases on all us

I been caping for Luka since Real Madrid son.

This is nothing new.

**** I wanted him to go to first overall.

But yes Brunson deserves a sit too. But I don’t think they’ll give it to him.

 

[N41D]

A 20-year old second year guy that didn't play for two series and played himself out of a rotation role in the regular season is hunting ISOs against a $50m 4x DPOY in the Western Conference Finals...

THIS THE GUY YALL BEEN DEFENDING

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The Notorious VVG putting cases on all us

Still got a long way to go. The Celtics have been playing with their food but they’re gonna be hell

Especially if porzingis finally comes back and the Mavs don’t have lively or maxi… and are forced to play Powell lol

If the Mavs pull this off it’s going to be more positive vibes anyway. No need to be annoying and toxic
