NBA 2018-2019

Great game. Congrats to our Canadian folks!

What a painful way to lose good thing it's philly fans having to deal with it.

 

[Ghost]

That's an odd question...how do you time it to get a shot off against Joel Embiid?

"Uhhhhhhhhhhh, I jumped super high and let go of the ball fading away?" I mean, how does anyone ever get a shot off? It seems like a fairly routine thing to do for basketball players.

 

[OrangeDW]

Wowwwwwww. That did not look like it was going in from where it hit the rim.

 

[Cowtown]

A great ending that sent the home town crowd away happy. But it really was typical NBA gam, in that you only needed to watch the 4th quarter.

 

[CanadianSU]

Wooo!

 

[NineOneSeven]

How did that drop? Wow

 

[Alsacs]

Possibly a Top 10 shot in league history.

Not better than Dame’s series clincher against the Thunder this postseason.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

So I feel like Toronto is pretty happy with the trade they made to get Kawhi, even if they don't keep him.

 

[Cowtown]

Yeah, but they're never happy with anything, anyway.

Hey! We're used to announcing hockey!

Just a guess, but it's 50-50 they keep him even if they win the whole onion. And that's the only chance he stays.

 

[CanadianSU]

Not true. He doesn’t do anything like the normal stars do these days.

I don’t think he stays but to put at 50/50 even if they win. Nope.

They were both awesome but I feel like Kawhis off balance flying out of bounds shot with Embiid in his face was higher difficulty.

Not sure what you are talking about.

3 of the 6 games in the series were blowouts that were decided well before the 4th quarter. This was certainly a series that the first half was often meaningful.

From the beginning of the deal I was happy with the risk we took and would accept if Kawhi left (but I am not assuming he is leaving). We lost Demar, a sort of "star", but he was holding us back.

 

[Cowtown]

They were both awesome but I feel like Kawhis off balance flying out of bounds shot with Embiid in his face was higher difficulty.

Well, it was certainly more dramatic than simply making two FT's.

I just want to take the time and say Kevin Harlan is the best announcer out there IMO. He makes everything seem so suspenseful.

Your H0T Takes are like frozen cowdung..

He's amazing. Loved his call in our elite 8 game

I believe there have been now seven walk-off series winning buzzer beaters in NBA history, two of which have occurred in the past couple weeks.

Does Lillards count as a walk off? There was still time left.

As opposed to college, which sucks for 40 minutes.

And Lillard traveled.

I just rewatched the clip and it looks like it was a real buzzer beater.
