NBA Thread 2020-21 Season

[jncuse]

Kevin Durant with a Kawhi Leonard esque 3 to end the eastern semi's like 2019?

Not quite -- but close.

 

[jncuse]

Not quite -- but close.

Like one inch close!!

 

[syrBossHogg]

Wow what a sports day

 

[jncuse]

Giannis only missed that shot by 14 feet.

 

[Orangezoo]

One touch pass and that is a layup.

 

[bpo57]

Why foul Harden? He couldn't throw the ball in the ocean tonight.

 

[OrangeDW]

I’m drunk and I don’t care who wins. This is awesome!

 

[jncuse]

Griffin puts his hands / arms around Tucker -- Tucker reacts. Tucker foul call. Garbage.

 

[jncuse]

One guy I don't want to see win is Blake Griffin.

Signing with a superteam as a Free Agent is perfectly fine with me. (i.e what Durant has done)

But I can't stand players who purposely crap the bed with teams in order to be bought out (and also players who force trades to superteams)

 

[jncuse]

2-2 game in OT, 4 minutes in. Pretty exciting despite the lack of scoring.

 

[Melancer46]

Griffin puts his hands / arms around Tucker -- Tucker reacts. Tucker foul call. Garbage.

He’s been getting killed all night by moving screens but the NBA just doesn’t care about that stuff. It’s directly led to a lot of Brooklyn free throws too because the moving screens force the defender into the ball handler for a foul

You mean like James Harden?

 

[Orangezoo]

Wow.

 

[jncuse]

You mean like James Harden?

Yes. As I was typing that I realized it was basically a deadheat between Griffin and Harden.

Agreed. Brooklyn has gotten a super friendly whistle all night. Luckily for the Bucks Harris is still slinging bricks.

 

[OrangeDW]

Yes. As I was typing that I realized it was basically a deadheat between Griffin and Harden.

Harden has gained my respect playing hurt and doing what he can this series.

He’s not a franchise guy, but a number 2 or 3? Sure.

 

[jncuse]

Things are going great for me as a fan.

Lakers
Nets
Clippers, oops why did the Jazz betray me!

 

[bpo57]

Great game. Not gonna lie - happy to see the Nets hit the links next week.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Could be a huge career win for Giannis

 

[OttoinGrotto]

FEAR THE DEER

 

[Orangezoo]

Gutsy win.

Yeah hoping the Suns beat the Clips.

 

[NineOneSeven]

All timer tonight. Wow. Big props to bucks. If they couldn’t beat this battered nets team not sure when they would.

 

[Briancuse]

Someone check on Evan Roberts. Make sure he's ok.

 

[jncuse]

Yeah hoping the Suns beat the Clips.

The Suns are great. Loved them since I was 6 years old. The days of Truck Robinson, Walter Davis, and Johnny High!! It's been a tough time being a fan of this franchise in the last 10 years but stuck with them as I am such a hardcore fan.

Crossed the border last week to go watch a game in Phoenix, and pummeled some pencilneck geek Nuggets fan to show my support.
