2018-19 NBA Thread

This game has been rough.

The Bucks have gone 10-1 thought the postseason, though, and they're really good defensively.

 

Leonard. Wow.

 

James won that title in ‘16 because Kyrie was unguardable in the final three games.

 

Yep, he had nothing to do with it.

 

Was that when he went 6-24 in game 7?

 

What's your point? Both teams sucked from the floor. Kobe had a game-high 23 points. He also had 15 rebounds.

 

Ridiculous. Have you ever been on skates?

There’s is something to be said for knowing how to fight, an nhl enforcer knows how to throw punches.

 

My point is it’s ridiculous to call that a clutch game. 6 for fucking 24. Not clutch.

 

Who called it a clutch game?

 

I know that playoff basketball is pressure packed and high stakes but that Toronto bench, well everyone not named Kawhi looks scared to take a late game shot. Siakam doesn't want it, I don't know what happened to the 2015-2016 Gasol, Van Fleet doesn't want it (did you see his last shot in the game??), don't give it to Green, he doesn't know what to do with it. As for the Bucks, Brogdon knows what to do, but while that last reverse on Kawhi! was awesome, he's physically limited. The Bucks are tremendous at moving the ball on the perimeter and have troublesome length on D but I'm hoping the Ws can play cohesive team ball and combat that length with ball movement and skill. Oh yeah, and that unbelievable engine called playoff Draymond Green.

 

Agree with pretty much all of that. Kawhi had a bad shooting night in game seven against the Sixers but still ended up taking 39 shots because no one else was willing to shoot the ball.

 

No way Milwaukee was going to easily get out of Game 3 with a win. They got the full Sacramento Game Six treatment at the end last night.

NBA can't have two sweeps, especially when Milwaukee, Toronto and Portland are 3 of the 4 markets.
