NFT: NBA Playoffs

kelsto811 : 5/11/2023 8:49 pm
Anyone watching this Celtics/76ers game? Jayson Tatum is 0-10 from the field in the 1st galf and I think they said something like 1-22 in the first half of the last 3 games. He had some terrible turnovers too. Celtics still up 7. Is this a case of the pressure is too high or what, he had some really bad games down the season stretch too.

On another note, Suns lost Deandre Ayton tonight and are now down Paul and Ayton in an elimination game. KD is another one who has not played too well of late.

or have 3/4 of current NBA players gone to Kentucky?
Thought for sure this postseason

was headed for yet another Boston/LA showdown. Glad I was wrong.
Man was I wrong about Denver

to get the Lakers back in the series. Denver up two at the start of the fourth.

My younger brother was HS classmates and college roommates with Scott Foster and they are still very close. I know Scott a bit and he’s a good kid. He certainly gets his fair share of abuse from the fans, media, and players, but takes it pretty much in stride. I don’t watch NBA basketball, but my brother clued me in to LeBron running into Scott last night so I came here to see if anything was said about it.

I'm sure the league offices are doing cartwheels over a possible Denver-Miami Finals, Haha.

I think the Nuggets win it all. I thought that before the postseason began & I am even more convinced of that now. Denver's the best team with the best dude in Jokic.
Boston not even putting up a fight

Geez Celtics show a little pride man

That arrogant POS Red Auerbach is turning over in his grave lol. The scary thing is the Knicks may have been the 2nd best team in the east lol they were the only team that gave the Heat a series.

yeah, this is crazy - if the Heat sweep the Celts how do the Knicks look - not so bad. This Spo guy has some juju going. ....
83-56 😂 😂

Love watching the Celtics get destroyed, even if it is Miami.
Could see some big changes this offseason  
nygiants16 : 5/21/2023 10:04 pm : link
for the celtics, obviously not Tatum but you have to wonder if they look for a new costar
Coach should be out too.  
bceagle05 : 5/21/2023 10:07 pm : link
Sounds like Al Horford is doing more coaching tonight than the actual coach.

nygiants16 : 5/21/2023 10:11 pm : link
Celtics are pretty much locked into salaries except for Jayken Brown..

Wonder what they could get if they offered up Brown and drsft picks, problem for the celtics is Brown can basically dictate where he goes
Crazy how non competitive  
kelsto811 : 5/21/2023 10:23 pm : link
These series are. The rest of the playoffs was great tv.
Who the heck

The NBA needs to figure out a way to embrace it. They can’t keep hoping it’s a major market team or a team led by LeBron. From my perspective, this finals is sorely needed.
Save us, Denver Nuggets, you're our only hope  
Greg from LI : 5/22/2023 11:09 am : link
I will vomit for days if the fucking Heat win a title with Butler, Bam, and a bunch of schmoes.
Jokic is a monster  
UConn4523 : 5/22/2023 11:16 pm : link
see ya, LeBron
Very glad to see LeFlop hit the bricks

Such a damn shame the Lakers and Celtics are a combined 0-7  
Stu11 : 5/22/2023 11:24 pm : link
In the conference finals so far. Hey Larry Bird and Magic Johnson- suck it. Oh and Kevin McHale go grab that stupid towel from a baseline somewhere and cry into it.
I've gotta wonder if Ime Udoka was still coaching Boston  
kelsto811 : 5/23/2023 7:03 am : link
If they would at least be competitive in this series, they were rolling under him prior to him getting canned

I never understood this. How about we wait to see the ratings rather than pee your pants with anxiety?

Udoka was suspended before the beginning of the season. Mazzulla was the coach for their hot start (21-5, 35-12).

Celtics' personnel limitations are apparent to anyone who watches the games. Tatum and Brown have suspect handles and can be pressured into turnovers. Horford has gotten old, Smart is erratic and the rest of the team flat out isn't that good.
Celtics up big in Game 4.  
bceagle05 : 5/23/2023 10:46 pm : link
Haven’t been watching too much of this one, but Miami was up six at halftime so Boston showed some fight tonight.
...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/24/2023 6:04 am : link
99% chance it won't happen, but I still could see Cs winning this series.
Boston up big in Game 5, nearing the end of the third quarter.  
bceagle05 : 5/25/2023 10:05 pm : link
Game 6 in Miami was always going to be the toughest one for Boston to get, but the momentum is building.
...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/26/2023 6:10 am : link
I think Boston is winning this series.

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/27/2023 8:01 pm : link
Ton of pressure on Miami tonight.
Lowry with another dirty play (on Jaylen Brown).  
bceagle05 : 5/27/2023 9:02 pm : link
Shocking.
Boston is winning this game.  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/27/2023 10:03 pm : link
And series.
Jimmy and Bam coming up small tonight….so far.

Heat are 11-46 on TWO POINT shots  
shyster : 5/27/2023 10:26 pm : link
I don't think I have ever seen such a low percentage on that many 2 pointers.
Boston up seven  
bceagle05 : 5/27/2023 10:30 pm : link
but it feels like it should be more. Keep waiting for Miami to wake up but they might be toast.
Playoff Jimmy looking more like Playoff Julius.  
bceagle05 : 5/27/2023 10:55 pm : link
Putrid performance - looks scared out there.
Jimmy wakes up, finally.

God fucking dammit! The fucking Heat and Duncan Robinson

I did not see that coming
Spoelstra  
Mook80 : 5/27/2023 11:16 pm : link
is a terrific coach but that was a monumental mistake not guarding white on the inbounds. Because of that strus never got back to him and never was able to block him out. Cost them the game, and one of the TNT guys was all over it.
Still have no clue who I’m rooting for  
bceagle05 : 5/27/2023 11:16 pm : link
but that was an epic ending all around.
Almost an all-time choke  
shyster : 5/27/2023 11:17 pm : link

Still one more chance.

I thought there was a chance Boston would win this after Game 4. I don't see Miami winning tomorrow night. & if so, what a collapse.
Going to be nuts  
LauderdaleMatty : 5/28/2023 9:03 am : link
For that final game. I don't actually despise this Heat team like I have in the past. Especially the Lebron team, but they lose it's just about as big a nut shot in NBA history
