I watched the Celtics come from a way back to hammer the sixers who are done
Brett Brown is done. Only thing that remains is to see if they sell Simmons or Embiid
How bad was Embeid... Kanter was getting offensive rebounds on him. His offensive game was hopeless, turning down open mid range.
They really do miss Simmons. He can at least up the tempo get them running. Richardson dribbles too much and Harris isn’t good enough to carry.
-
Agree Sixers are done, Harris and Horford (both on huge money) aren't showing up and its affecting Embiid.
Mavs are a tough team once they get going, would love it if they took Clippers to 7. Agree @ACT-Crusader Luka is going to finish career as a serious all time great.
Lakers really need to step up, hopefully they don't shoot as badly again. Lebron needs to score more and AD can't go to sleep in second half again.
Jazz look really good once Mitchell gets going and Gobert chips in on the offensive end as well. Still expect Nuggets to be too good for them overall in 6 or 7 games.
-
Luka annoys me a little. Not sure if it his ungainly movements or the expressions on his face. It's like he is in the worse pain ever when he is contacted.

Man, you gotta get over that, its gonna ruin your chance to see a top 5 all-time guy dominate for a decade.
-
@voodoo It doesn't stop me watching him or appreciating how good he is. He just probably won't be one of my favourites. A bit like how many seem to feel about LBJ.
-
Though I think there is a huge contingent of fans that desperately want Lebron to lose.

T-Wolves get top pick in the draft, Golden State get #2

GS luck in, feels like San Antonio getting Tim Duncan and the Admiral, and we all know how that worked out

a high draft pick, and superstars returning from a year off. Not bad

@barbarian to be honest that's all they need. Unless there has been a drop off from their big 3. They will still attract a decent F/A
LaMelo carved for the Hawks, i'm sure that will translate to the NBA...

Sadly for GSW I don't think there's a Tim Duncan in this draft. One of the weakest in a long time, especially without March Madness to analyse draft candidates.
They will get a functional piece, not a superstar.
Phew

depends what position they choose to fill. Assuming they will get production out of Wiggins they could do with a big

I hate that GSW can make the finals, then tank on the back of some injuries next year and get #2, when in all likelihood they'll make the finals again next year, even without the draft piece
I'd like to see lottery odds based on a rolling 3yr record. Tank for that you fuckers.

To be fair Steph and Klay were legitimately injured. Lose KD as well and they were poor. Fortuitous because after their long playoff and championship runs they could do with the rest

I actually really like GSW! Pre-KD version of course. Klay would be my fav player in the league, and I loved Curry when he was dominant. Iggy, Bogut, just a magic team. Draymond not so much, but I can see why his team mates love him.
Now KD has gone, I'm ready to go back.

Yeah but 1 season of injuries shouldn't propel you to the #2 pick sandwiched between 2 finals appearances
