2022 NBA Playoffs thread

That's the story.

With this large of a sample size, I'm kind of with you. I used to think it was more bad luck that KD hadn't won a non-GS title... But before and after then, he's just always wanted to square up 25-feet from the hoop, size up the defense, and in the process, kill the shot clock and create less efficient situations for himself. It's incredible that he's still this great of a player, but like Harden's usage rate dominance, there's an element of "this shit doesn't work in the playoffs" to it.

 

Lol. Pay the man his money.

 

Wiggins shouldn’t be on the bench, he should be in the showers. His plus-minus is atrocious.

 

37 minutes for Curry tonight. Should be back in the starting lineup for Game 5.

 

Better angles of the protestors getting the "take 'em out back and toss 'em in a dumpster" treatment.

 

Harlan and Reggie are missing a pretty good game.

 

Fuck, when Phoenix has the ball in the backcourt and Alvarado is on the floor, KEEP THE CAMERA ON THE GAME AND FOLLOW IT

 

Suns got their asses kicked last night. Simple as that. Need a better effort in Game 5.

EDIT: To add that Paul was terrible last night. 2-8, 0-3 from 3, four fouls, three turnovers, -14. Unacceptable effort when your superstar is on the bench in street clothes. And getting owned by an undrafted rookie from Georgia Tech, not a good look.

 

Calling Alvarado undrafted is an indictment on the NBA, not on him. Alvarado is fantastic.

 

If James Harden had any self awareness he’d be depressed. The Nets would rather pay 30 million to a lazy bum who refuses to work rather pay Harden who actually shows up.
