2022 NBA Playoffs thread

Mike Brown get fired from the Kings yet?

 

No but Draymond, Steph and Klay played like they got traded there.

 

Well, that got ugly in a hurry.

Trust the process?

 

You hate to see when a team with James Harden gives up in the playoffs … sorry, no, what’s the opposite of that?

 

Speaking of... Didn't watch, but his box score sure reads like vintage "Harden in elimination game." 43 minutes, 9 shots, 11 points, 9 assists, 4 boards, 4 turnovers, -16. Embiid went 7-for-24, but he's playing 44 minutes with a broken face, so I imagine the attention is going to focus on Harden and Maxey (9-for-22, -24).

 

If this doesn’t convince Harden to drop 20 pounds, nothing will. He couldn’t get past PJ Tucker much less a guard.

 

I turned it on in the fourth quarter and he was straight garbage. Couldn’t hold on to the ball, couldn’t shoot, he never plays defense anyway and he couldn’t be bothered to get a rebound.

 

It must suck to be a Sixers fan the last 10 years.

This year's ending might have been more tolerable if Embiid got the MVP which I think he probably shoulda won.

 

For all of his bluster about getting a windfall for Ben Simmons, Daryl Morey got absolutely fleeced in that trade. Ben Simmons may be a giant question mark going forward, but he could retire tomorrow and the Nets still win that trade.

And Harden can opt out this summer to force Philly into signing him long term. Giggle.

 

Harden has 1 yr left at $45m+ and will want about 5/250M, yeah I wouldn’t give him that.
