2024-25 NBA Season / Playoffs

7 plays 8. Winner gets in. 9 plays 10. Loser is out. The 7/8 loser plays the 9/10 winner for the final spot. The #1 seed ends up playing the lowest seed remaining. The #2 seed plays the other remaining play in team.

Not quite. The 7/8 winner plays the #2, no matter what.

GS up big early is almost always fools gold. Common for teams to come back in today’s game but that’s a staple of them.

Kerr’s subbing patterns sometimes reminds me of Autry.

 

[NineOneSeven]

With Ja banged up, this would be a really bad loss.

My buddy thinks Kerr is one of the most overrated coaches ever. I think it’s an exaggeration. But if he drops this one..

Memphis is tough though, even without Ja. They are capitalizing on turnovers and bad shots in transition.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Such a strange game as Memphis currently has 10 more turnovers with 4 left.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Wow. Curry has a tendency to have some lazy turnovers but he hits daggers.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Lol classic Green dumb foul

 

[NineOneSeven]

A foul to put Edey at the line? What?!

 

[Newhouser]

late to the Memphis/GSW game but

1) did Kuminga sleep with Kerr' wife?
2) no way that 5 second call is made if the Warriors are inbounding. Of course they probably don't walk around like 5 forty somethings trying to inbound as well....

There were so many weird calls down the stretch. I thought for sure they were calling an off-ball foul on GS on that 5 second call. Payton (I think it was him) was holding the crap out of Ja; literally looked like he was giving him a big bear hug.

 

[Cusefan0307]

A bit of an off night for him on offense, but I thought Edey really played well otherwise. JJJ and Morant weren’t good enough and really haven’t been all year. Pretty excited for a lot of these west first round matchups. I could see 3 series go either way outside of OKC.

That fact that he is still doing this is beyond ridiculous

That's why I bet more and just paid the juice on the GS money line.

It really feels like anybody could win the west if something happens to OKC, and I mean that in a good way vs. the way things have been open in the East in the past due to nobody being good lol.

Even in a league where so many players try to model their game after Steph, there is nobody that is actually like Steph.

Between him and Jokic we've got some delightfully weird guys, style wise.

But nobody was really moving either. I don’t understand that set. I find these teams wait way too long to initiate on inbounds plays too.

Is there a more overrated NBA player than Trae Young?

I was thinking the same. Checked out his contract, 43 mil this year, 26 next, and 28 the year after.

Zach Edey looks like a guy who will be around for a while.

Didn't see the whole game, and know he didn't shoot well. He hit some big shots, then seemed to just stop defending the last 2 minutes of OT. Would love to see scouting on him. (Put him in adverse situations and he will quit. Only tries on defense when shooting well.)

I meant 46 mil next year
49 the year after. Not Bradley Beal crazy, still a lot for a volume shooter.

MSG was rocking in the 4th quarter. Huge comeback win going away. Jalen Brunson was awesome. (26 mil a year deal just to compare with Trae)

 

[Cusefan0307]

WTH is espn doing having Bilas announce NBA games after doing none all year?

Returning the favor for Chuck doing NCAA Tourney studio shows.
