2021 NBA playoffs thread

Still not sure that the decision to throw the lob was the smartest in the world. Same with the blind tip off of the missed FT, which was a couple of feet away from Booker streaking down court with a chance to hit a tying 3. But they both worked out.

 

It’s your favourite reporter. Barry Mckockinher.

The nerve of LeBron watching his buddy play basketball.

 

He’s black. That bothers YAB.

 

I think the blind tip was because he desperately didn't want to come down with the rebound and get fouled. I think the lob was equivalent to a high pass over the middle in football given the situation - Giannis was lucky he didn't get hurt on that, as it looked like the Suns player was trying to give him a two-hand shove.

 

Better not show LBJ this photo of the marquee at this theater in Oakland.

 

Shrewd move. They plan to release his movie during the NBA Finals. Chances are LeBron will be playing. Since he’s not, let’s get him court side. Where he’ll be covered and keep his name out there in front of his core demographic audience. And if they can’t convert Chris Paul into the sentimental under appreciated Basketball god, they can at least get him to cry so LeBron can be there for him, and have more stories written about LeBron Goes To The Finals.

shrewd. Mogul gonna mogul.

 

Seeing as two spots just opened up on the Olympic team, why don't the scheming powers-that-be scooch LBJ onto the roster? Just think of the promotional possibilities.

 

Odds are close to zero.

 

If he wanted to be on the roster, he would already be on the roster. Same with a handful of other guys.

 

I know, but in the reality-teevee storyline the old and wheezing LeBron would come shuffling out of the locker room to carry the struggling USA to glorious victory.

 

Do Coach Bud improve as a coach in the last month?

 

No
