NBA Thread

Just thought I'd drop in to congratulate any Knicks fans in here on winning their NBA Championship last night—you know, by actually taking one game vs the Celtics. Cheers on a legendary season.
 
More insane playoff basketball. Pacers miraculous comeback and finish, to steal both games in Cleveland 🤯

Steph just pulled a hammy after scoring 13 in 13 mins. Decent lead at the half but this is big big trouble of course.

He’ll miss at least a game or two. Maybe more. Turns this game into a must-win.
 
Even in one of the best years in franchise history, Cleveland still gonna Cleveland

Didn't realize Garland has been out though. Really puts a damper on that series and Cavs season

They were without Mobley (DPOY candidate) and Hunter (6th man), too.

Damn, didn't catch that. Makes it an even more painful L

Props to Indy though. Really like what they've done with this young core

Will be pulling for them hard vs BOS/NYK

Yeah, the bigger surprise is that they almost won with three of their top 6 out, and arguably the most important player. BTW Mobley won DPOY this year. He had a $45M kicker in his contract. I wouldn't ever do that for a young player. I understand the idea to motivate him, but you might be setting him up with the wrong type of motivation. He might not put in the same effort.

The Pacers are good and at full strength. Cavs gotta have those 3 players back to come back and win that series.

Garland, Mobley, Hunter all out last game. I’m unsure of their status but Cavs are in trouble right now.

Pacers are still a team I have trouble believing in though, so I don’t think it’s over.
 
Celtics choke again as Tatum turns it over and can’t even get off a shot on the final possession down 1. Just hate to see it! Couldn’t happen to a better franchise and player.

Tatum, to me, is as likeable of a d00kie as there is.

Glad he whiffed on the last play and the Celtics lost…….hate d00k and dislike the Celtics.
 
You know what I HATE...ABSOLUTELY HATE.

Home teams wearing colored jerseys and Away teams wearing white.

Home ought to have on white with the name of their mascot on the jersey. Away ought to have on some combination of their team colors with their city on the jersey. This makes sense.

Completely agree! And Oklahoma City was wearing black last night and their ft lanes are also black. It all just blends in and is not aesthetically pleasing to the eyes at all.
 
After an unbelievable start to the playoffs, round 2 has been ruined by injuries. The Cavs are in huge trouble, Warriors on the brink, and Celtics just lost Tatum to what looks like an Achilles.

All of them down 1-3 in their series.

Nuggs/Thunder the only series at 2-2.

Bummer.
