2014 NBA Playoffs Thread

[Hurricane Season]

The Bulls fail at everything they try to do. They go into the season expecting to compete for the division, and Rose struggles, gets hurt, and they look pretty mediocre throughout. Then they try to win without him, end up a few games below .500, and decide to trade Deng and tank... Then they start winning, ruining any chance they had at getting a decent pick.

They roll into the playoffs as one of the hotter teams in the league. They look like they could put up a fight against anyone in the east, and they end up one Nene ejection away from getting swept out of the fucking first round.

I hate this team, I hate sports, and I look forward to putting myself through this every year. I don't understand it.

I know he should've made it anyways but Joey Crawford just iced the fuck out of Kevin Durant....

Joey is screaming at some poor guy behind the scorer's table. How is that allowable? Is he technically a superior to any NBA crew running the scorer's table?

 

[BwareDWare94]

I think that was clearly good. Thunder bailed out by their athleticism on that one

 
Oh, maybe not.

10,000 wows

 

[BwareDWare94]

Thank God. This pretty much guarantees a more tolerable team moves on or a game 7. Both good scenarios.

 

[BwareDWare94]

Man, I so thought that was good in real time.

I know he should've made it anyways but Joey Crawford just iced the fuck out of Kevin Durant....

 
While I hate to just assume he'd have hit the second free throw, this game should be going into double OT.
 
And it's not like Thunder fans can't complain. Joey set up the second free throw, then ran in and tore it out of KD's hands. Stop the game after the shot, nobody gets boned. Maybe KD misses, anyway, but there ain't a soul here who thinks he would have.

Unbelievable playoffs

 

[BwareDWare94]

^Indeed.
 
Damn. Clips lucky DeAndre didn't get hurt, there.

 

[Mexi]

Joey Crawford is freaking amazing

 

[buzzy]

Another OT game, eh?

 

[BwareDWare94]

I want Memphis to win. So far, the eye test favors Memphis to win, but I still have a feeling OKC wins this series. I can't shake it. I think they're fucking with us. Durant's gonna get hot. 

 

[BwareDWare94]

How amazing is the Western Conference? Every lower seed has a legitimate shot at winning their series, and if GSW pulls this off...it's very likely that three of them will. We'd only need Dallas to win tomorrow to have a good shot at all 4. 

 

[Mexi]

Feel for dub fans
Without bogut this series is useless

Dubs win this series with bogut

DOES HOME COURT MEAN NOTHING ANYMORE?

 

[RipCity32]

These playoffs are absolutely nuts. I love it.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I'm legitimately amazed that someone who isn't from Memphis thinks that the Grizzlies beating the Thunder is a favorable outcome for the NBA. Ratings will plummet if the Thunder get knocked out, they're the second most popular team in the playoffs behind Miami.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Miami will have another cake walk to a title.

All the hips to Miami
