2023 running NBA playoffs thread

Come on, that was absolutely ridiculous. Had to be overturned.

Brings back to mind the adage about NBA officiating.

Basketball at the NBA level is not about competition, It's about entertainment. Plays are called differently for different players and teams because that's what the NBA wants, and that's fine, It's just important to note. The NBA is half college basketball (actual competition) and half Harlem Globetrotters (entertainment that isn't called by official rules). If fans are expecting the game to be called by official basketball rules, they will forever be disappointed.

I like Spulstra and generally like the Heat, but dammit if I don't want the Heat winning by less than 3 tonight.

Once again ... both teams with two timeouts.

Breathe Denver.

Breathe.

Exhale. It's over.

No Jokic'ing around: Denver win!!!

Fireworks going off here in the suburbs, ticking off the dog.

What a scene. Never thought I'd see it.

The celebration tonight/tomorrow is going to give a whole new meaning to Mile High.

Murray, Gordon and Brown are the perfect 2-4 on a championship team.

I get the shtick, but if I saw a Heath Ledger Joker walking through the concourse, I'm cartoon running through walls out of there.
