2018 NBA Post-Season Thread

[Paulius]

Yall remember when MJ threw the ball inside to Rodman being down 3?

Yea me neither

 

[Mexi]

You need to see the play again. You'll feel stupid

Your the only one nitpicking that play lol. Just chill

They weren't ever beating this team. KD guaranteed them 2-3 titles

 

[Paulius]

You cant just look at the play. You look at everything that haooened before

The play escalated because bron knew from the beginning he wasnt going to put this on his name. Everything coulda been so different if he was willing to put that play on his back

But instead, he went to thompson being down 3

Jesus christ

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Well see in game 4. He either goes down swinging or quits

 

[CameronCrazy06]

But yeah bet Lue regrets not going to Hood earlier

 

[buzzy]

Game 4 is gonna be a slaughter

Kevin Durant ruined the NBA.

Dude on Baton Rouge radio talking about how he watched A Handsmaid Tail with his wife rather than the Finals, and hes a big NBA guy lol

There's been a lot of talk regarding whether or not LeBron gets a pass for these last two Finals series.

The answer is yes and no.

Yes, obviously, because his teams absolutely were incapable of beating this Warriors team. Because nobody in this league can win 4 out of 7 against this Warriors team.

No, but not because of something the general LeBron hater would understand. It's no for the exact same reasons, and therefore it's no because he doesn't need a pass in the first place. The Warriors cannot be beaten. We keep saying it probably won't happen while they're together but that's false. It can't happen while they're together.

And even if it was possible, the butchering of the second half of the officiating in game 1 effectively made this a non-series from the first go.

I don't think the series would have gone past 5 or 6 had Cleveland stolen that game, but they didn't need to have it taken from them by the officials.

uh, that's a good show, and better than a competitive finals if we are being honest

lol shut up

Rockets-Warriors went 7 games and was competitive. Its because the Cavs blow that this series isnt good, not because the Warriors are OP. Both Houston and a healthy Boston could compete with them

that, and having the games start at 9p, are the issues with this series. if they started at 730p or even at 8p itd be easier to watch. i only watched the first half yesterday before I went to bed lol

 

[BNC]

But yeah bet Lue regrets not going to Hood earlier

His game plans have been pretty solid but he really needs to work on his rotations to be a better coach

 

[buzzy]

Can everybody just shut the fuck up about the Warriors being unbeatable and how they should be split up by the league and ridiculous shit like that? 
 
They were a healthy Chris Paul away from losing in the WCF. And even if they would have come back from 2-3 against a healthy Rockets squad, it's obvious that they're pretty even teams. Are we trying to break up the Rockets as well, because they seem pretty unfair too. 
 
Would everybody who "stopped watching the NBA because of Durant" come back to watch an even better team in the Rockets had they beaten them?

 

[elcheato]

The Warriors would have come back on a healthy a Rockets team anyway. Y'all gotta keep up

That's what I'm saying. The Warriors are not unbeatable, the NBA does not suck because of Kevin Durant. The problem with the NBA is that most of the teams suck. There are only a few really good teams. It's not the Warriors' fault they built a great team and then a great FA signed with them. Tbh the Warriors really aren't even as good as they should be.
 
And I've been having fun watching this series. The first game was great and the finish was hilarious. The second game wasn't close but I do like seeing the Steph and the Warriors hit all those crazy shots. This game was good too, and it was cool to see Durant finish the game off again like he did the last Finals game 3. If you appreciate the talent the Warriors have and aren't desperately hoping they somehow lose, you can have fun watching them.
