2025 NBA Playoffs

Pretty wild that Indy is probably going to be in the ECF. I don't think many pundits had that in their predictions.

I think people forget they were there last year too

And were in the in-season tournament championship.

Man, it sure is bittersweet watching Mikal make a huge difference on both ends of the floor for the Knicks in a huge playoff game.

Celtics might be done…bout to go down 3-1 and Tatum is hurt

Looks like a blown out Achilles. let's hope it's not as serious as it looks.

[Mori Chu]

Warriors just don't have enough firepower to beat the Wolves without Curry.

Hope Tatum didn't tear his Achilles. But that looks like what it was. Celtics current contender status RIP.

[Split T]

Maybe we try to get in on the Celtics sell off this summer. They were probably already going to slash payroll, but if Tatum is out the whole year, I think they definitely do.

[Wally_West]

Don’t think Celts would trade Tatum but Tatum who’ll will miss most the year or maybe miss the whole year? Yeah, they might. Trade KD for Tatum straight up. I just did it in 2k.

[Wally_West]

lol

[ShelC]

Confirms what we pretty much knew.

[Mori Chu]

Brutal. I don't like the Celtics or Tatum very much, but I certainly feel sad for him and would not wish injury on him or any player. It must be crushing for the Celtics and their fans to essentially have their title contention end here for the next few years. I wonder if they will try to keep this team together or make some big moves this summer.

[ShelC]

There's already been talk of breaking the team up due to payroll and new owners not wanting to pay so much. And there was a "report" that Boston could be a landing spot for KD that didn't seem to be realistic. I still don't think it's a possibility but would anyone do a KD for Jaylen Brown trade straight up? They get a replacement scorer for Tatum, get out from Brown's longterm deal and will only be committed to KD in the short term. I don't love Brown or his salary but he'd be a good fit next to Book on the perimeter and we know Moneybags Ish wants to stay competitive.

[Split T]

There’s some tricky salary stuff there though as Boston can’t trade Brown for KD and would need to dump salary to a 3rd team. Pretty significant salary.

[Kryptonic]

Damn…. That’s rough. Too bad and wouldn’t wish that on any team.

[TOO]

I wonder if Giannis would go to Cleveland, that team is good, but they need someone to make Spida the 2nd fiddle.

My dream pairing would be with either Brunson or Wemby, but that would be fun too.

[Split T]

Hmmm, garland and Mobley for Giannis

Haliburton waiving bye bye to the Cleveland fans was bush league.
