Oh, I didn't realize it was an option. That's a lot of money, but he's playing very well for them in the playoffs.

It is just ridiculous what he is doing. He is averaging over 30 points per game with less than 20 FGAs per game. I don't know how to search for that in just the playoffs, but if he did that in the regular season, he would be only the 3rd guy ever behind Karl Malone and Adrian Dantley.

LOL . Shaq and Reggie don't appear together in many statistical groupings.Cap wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 9:47 amhttp://bkref.com/tiny/oQYKUIndy wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 8:00 amIt is just ridiculous what he is doing.

thanks--I couldn't see that filter for the life of me. I swear I spent 5 minutes reading and re-reading that list without seeing it.Cap wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 9:47 amhttp://bkref.com/tiny/oQYKUIndy wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 8:00 amIt is just ridiculous what he is doing.

I wish GSW lost, but I don't have any hopes for HOU, though. Something will happen that will bail out GSW. Refs, injuries, choking, some miracle shot, whatever. This has all the same vibes than our battles against SAS.
Maybe watching Embiid can help.O_Gardino wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2019 6:09 amLast night looked to me like Houston playing with an emotional desperation that they won't be able to maintain.
I won't harp on this a ton, but watching Clint Capela sit over half the game (you can't beat a good perimeter team playing a true center) just reminds me of how much I hate that we picked Ayton. Dude would be a huge liability in the playoffs.
