'21-'22 NBA Playoffs Games/Series

[Split T]

Heat take game 1, incredible Butler performance.

[Shabazz]

LeBron hit those numbers in the playoffs a few years back.

[Flagrant Fowl]

It's depressing watching the Warriors play defense with effort. The Suns were so complacent on that end against the Mavs.

[Mori Chu]

Warriors destroy the Mavs, 112 - 87 in Game 1. Got to say, it felt good. Luka shot 6-18 and had many sad pouty faced shots on the bench at the end. Delightful.

wow, he really got in our heads.

[Cap]

I hate Draymond. Not looking forward to possibly facing them next round.

Well, you must feel relieved.

Not really. He’s had a punchable face since he entered the league. Our failures have nothing to do with it.

When he makes a shot and gives his arrogant little privileged look, I wish someone would just punch him one time. It would be worth the suspension

[Indy]

Do you feel the same about book talking shit?

And I guarantee if we did the thing most (or maybe close to most) of us thought was right and drafted him instead of DA, would we still want to see him punched?

Let’s be honest here, you’ve been fully erect for him since pre-draft so you’re a little biased.

Book is different than Doncic. He doesn’t show boat, give a smug look, shrug after every made basket even in the first quarter. He doesn’t throw up dollar signs after every foul. He may argue and talk shit, but he shows respect. He’s more like MJ and Kobe in that respect.. Doncic’s display is disgusting. I really truly wish someone would put him in his place.

I hate Curry and Poole for the same reasons and I wish Oakley would just come and clobber them. I respect the hell out of Klay Thompson.

whatever lets you sleep at night.

I just mostly try not to let what players do bother me…I could care less when they talk trash, celebrate, or complain to the refs…the one thing that does bother me is the foul baiting…of course CP3 and Crowder do it too. Still hard to not let it bother me when they do it against us.

Right back at you

All the good players foul bait. You would be stupid not to when the game rewards it so often.

Ya, it still bothers me…mostly just the ones who have made it a defining feature of their game. Harden, Trae, Luka…CP3 really bugged me earlier in his career.

[Mori Chu]

I'd probably love him if he were a Sun. But he isn't. So I am allowed to root against him.

[ShelC]

He wasn't smirking last night.

The Ws energy and speed overwhelmed the Mavs. They pushed the ball right down the Mavs' throat while we walked the ball up, plodding along and letting their defense get set.

Our pace has been an issue and it felt like we barely ran in the playoffs. Maybe part of it was Payne regressing and Paul being injured. We need to make it a point to play faster next season.

It's become a "shoot and fall down" league. It's laughable how little contract it takes to make them fall down as they try to sell a call.

Agreed. It is a league-wide thing. And until they change how they officiate, it would be dumb to not play that way.

[Mori Chu]

LOL, that Barkley clip. Chuckster has a certain quality, reminiscent of a particular politician, where he can almost say or do anything and it'll just sort of bounce off him without creating a scandal or controversy. Just Chuck being Chuck.
