is a 5'6“ twerp who is mostly "known" as a TBS baseball broadcaster. He's an Atlanta boot licker. It's no secret. Dude resides in Clowntown. His call tonight was absurd.

Three “pivotal game 5”s as the great Marv Albert round say

.

Seems like an odd thing to do if they're not gonna trot him out there.

Apparently he is going to test it pregame and is pushing to play, so they had to at least upgrade him to doubtful so he has a chance..

are tricky. I'm no doctor but that can potentially go very badly for Harden if he pushes himself too much. You would think Kyrie has more of a chance to contribute, even if he's limited.

feel like I'm in some kind of Long Island time warp.

Big game tonight for the Nets. And a big game for KD.

Surprising. Let's see how long he lasts on the court. As noted above, hamstrings can be tricky...it doesn't take much to reaggravate it.

if he gets hurt again the Nets are going to get ripped

Puts a lot more pressure on the Nets and sends out the signal they are desperate. They probably should have waited till they faced elimination.

It's going to be tough for them. They'll probably put him on PJ Tucker? Not a good offensive player but good enough that he can make something happen.

the superstar-orchestrated team-ups fail. It being the Nets would be icing on the cake.

Let's go Bucks.

Definitely a precarious situation. But the thing is I can actually see Harden being one of those few players who can be effective without having to exert a ton of energy and put pressure on that hamstring. He relies a lot more on skill rather than speed and quickness. He's pretty much gonna have to just sit back and make the right passes/reads and take some step back 3's, probably shouldn't be making quick movements to drive to the basket and of course he's going to have to be careful running full speed to get back on D (that's originally how he aggravated it too). I think in half-court D he could be okay but again he's gonna literally have to be conscious of his movements at all time. Maybe if the Nets can come out the gate and hit shots it'll allow them to get back and set their D but if the pace of the game picks up at any point Harden could be in trouble.

Steve Nash just said it is Harden's decision if he wants to play, seriously?

Idiotic thinking. I get that you don't want to piss off your stars, but the medical people need to have the final word.

I have no dog in the fight, but what happens if Hardens hamstring tears or worse he hurts somrthing over comoensating, this really reminds me of Dursnt when he tore his achilles

Yup. And I bet KD-if on truth serum-wouldn't have played in hindsight.

..

But (and I hate the NJ Nets) never refer to them as NY in any way. But KD should have been on a team. No doubt.

Not over KD.

He onlynplayed 35 games, he missed half the season

I admit it's odd that KD-who is probably top 25ish of all time-didn't make an All NBA Team, but then I remember he barely played.

Good call I thought he played like 50 as did Butler, George and Leonard. But you are right only 35.

maybe it loosens up and he starts move better, but he can barely move

Harden looks like me @ 40 on the NBA court, Haha.

Finals prediction right now...Suns vs. 76ers.

what an overpay

NBA needs to change the buyout nonsense.

Giannis was starting to roll and he takes him out? dude it is the playoffs he can rest at half time

He makes all of his shots or none of them. There’s very little in between.

and he is a terrible defender, a lot different in post season when every shot is contested

Let’s see if the Bucks have grown up at all yet.

..

Meltdown in progress.

Budenholzer should be fired immediately..leaving lopez in killed them defensively..

then went completely iso heavy offensively

Then completely fall apart and allow layup after layup?

He's pretty much dead coach walking.

refs have started to call the game a lot tighter as well..not saying they are calling a bad game but definitely tighter

when the game becomes half court

Yeah but it was a 10 minute layup drill. It's not like the Nets got a ton of ft's

..

putting Lopez back in the game, getting absolutely destroyed by the small ball lineuo

If I were a Bucks fan I’d be throwing shit at this point.

..

....against Harden.

Harden suited up. He's been beyond atrocious. That last 3 he jacked up was mind boggling. Get the F'in ball to Durant and go hide somewhere. In the 90's when Jordan was hot Scotty Pippen didn't dribble around and take shitty fade away 3's.
