I don't think that even COTY Mike Brown can fuck up, with this kind of talent.

Game 6 was a reminder that Pop is a magician.

"Dont come to my city wearing all-black talking about it's a funeral" -John Wall

Absolute perfection.

John Wall needs to shut the Celtics up once and for all!

 

[Mrbob]

i got a mix feelings about that gif and the whole funeral talk because of this

really makes me feel uneasy because i feel for him but he did kind of have it coming

Maybe it's his way of grieving still but I was shocked to learn wearing all black outfits had been his idea. Especially after all he has gone through. He is opening himself to criticism now.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Will someone start a separate draft thread soon?

 

[Cooter]

My money is on Golden State losing a game before the Cavs do. Get healthy Kawhi.

Bold prediction considering the Warriors play the Spurs and the Cavs will play the winner of a 7 game lackluster series.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Pop vs. Brown is must see.

God, if Brown starts blowing it and they bring poor Kerr in early with a truckload of painkillers.

Just stick with the rotation he gave you, you clown!

 

[Resilient]

lotta salt in this thread. why are people saying the series has been boring tho ?? bring on Game 7.

 

[Sanjuro]

What a game! Can't wait for game seven Sunday night!

...oh.

 

[KingBroly]

It 100% was, pretty obvious.
It drifted on him, even hit an odd part of the backboard.
Shitluck.

John Wall is a fun Basketball Player to watch.

He is also having an Outstanding Playoffs.

How a shot like that makes no noise when it goes in is the most lucky thing about it.

 

[TTG]

Having just watched the last 5 minutes, wow I sure wish Mike Brown was going up against Scott Brooks and not Popovich.

 

[Lime]

Great game and a much more entertaining end to a series than that game 6 between Spurs and Rockets.

 

[Sanjuro]

How many funerals do the Bullets need?

My Lord.

 

[Chase17]

I didn't watch today's game

Idc if there was a buzzer beater

We need to get along to the finals, seeing this drag out to 7 game series got me feeling some type of way

At least tuesday is gonna be lit, Lakers gonna get that pick

Finals game 1 is a fixed date. This series going 7 doesn't push it back.

 

[panthapanda]

Weren't there like 3 blowout wins? Idk I'm not following lol

 

[Lionel Richie]

jesus that's embarrassing

IT needs to grow up

Yeah but Wall is also a shitbird for getting all pissed off about it when his team did that shit before.

 

[Hyperactivity]

That's the point of sports. Only your team is allowed to do it.

Plus, it was a home game for the wizards

True, don't get me wrong I love this WWE trash talking thing. Wall and IT are the good kind of assholes, the ones that actually add drama and make the series so fun.

 

[Sanjuro]

I believe Wall and IT should be suspended for Game 7 for this funeral smack talk.

Time for Amir to shine on the grandest stage!

Forget about Playoff Amir, the Wizards are about to learn what a Game 7 Amir stands for.

 

[Hyperactivity]

Wall has an mvp season coming up soon

 

[obeast]

Having just watched the last 5 minutes, wow I sure wish Mike Brown was going up against Scott Brooks and not Popovich.

I may be proven wrong, but there's a limit to what coaching can do and the talent disparity between GS and SA is so, so big, especially since Kawhi is apparently hurt.

I would not be surprised if GS sweeps them. I would be shocked if it's closer than 4-1.

 

[LionPride]

I completely forgot about the DJ Clippers/Mavs saga and all that went down...Jesus what a ride that was

 

[PadWarrior]

I was laughing when that pic was posted online of the chair blocking the door so Jordan couldn't leave when Blake and company went to his house lol.

Dang

do you mean the kind where halfway into the playoffs it still feels like Lebron should win it every year?

 

[spyder_ur]

Is there any other kind at this point?

[MugiwaraCole]

How many games y'all think these next series going realistically? I still say no more than 5 each.

 

[Jarate]

 

[RandomSeed]

Warriors and Cavs didn't make it out the first round on my current 2k playoff run, so maybe that's a sign they'll lose a game before the finals.

Spoiler

Please lose a game

.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I find it really off-putting that IT would engage in this given the passing of his sister being like...2 weeks ago. Idunno. All seems so tasteless.

 

[BlackNMild2k1]

That was my thought as well. I'm surprised someone didn't make the inappropriate joke to IT at his expense... Maybe if the next game is a Wiz blowout of the Celtics.

 

[DJwest]

Spurs-Warriors in 5? People really believe the Warriors are going to cruise through huh? I sure hope that series will be competitive.

 

[MugiwaraCole]

The Warriors could sweep the Spurs, and it still wouldn't make the series a cruise. All the games could be close.

 

[Line_HTX]

Fuck Boston.

 

[MushroomSamba]

The Warriors could sweep the Spurs, and it still wouldn't make the series a cruise. All the games could be close.

The idea of any team, no matter how talented, "cruising" past a Popovich-led Spurs seems a bit too hopeful, imo. They are a tough out.

I also think Celtics/Wiz have a shot of staying competitive with the Cavs. Even though the Pacers got swept, they were in a lot of those games up until the end.

 

[Sanjuro]

I don't see the problem to be honest. The whole concept is absurd to begin with and it's something for the media to eat up that doesn't involve players wanting to murder one another.

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

Do any of you think there's any truth to the ideas being thrown around that Harden (or Harden and others in the Rockets organization) threw yesterday's game? For whatever reason (knowing they just wouldn't make it past the Warriors and didn't see the point in going farther, etc)?

I was watching some lowlights from the game and I can't believe what I was watching

Vegeta would be disgusted.

 

[LionPride]

If it weren't for the Magic, the Kings would legit be the worst run team in the league

 

[True Savior]

Maybe they thought Mitrovic was the new Peja or something. Goddamn. Based-Hinkie.

 

[Tall4Life]

Anyone else watching the combine

 

[metalslimer]

If it weren't for the Magic, the Kings would legit be the worst run team in the league

Nets?

 

[Randy Monk]

If it weren't for the Magic, the Kings would legit be the worst run team in the league

I still remember the war room where Vivek chose Stauskas.

They were worried the Celtics were going to take him, in hindsight LOL

Nets?

Getting rid of King, they're making good decisions now.

They will be the worst team for at least a few more years but the next 2 drafts are going to be painful to watch

 

[DJwest]

The Warriors could sweep the Spurs, and it still wouldn't make the series a cruise. All the games could be close.

If all the games are going to be close, is it not more realistic to expect a longer series than only 5 games? Anyway, let's see, but I'm rooting for the Spurs.

 

[LionPride]

Nets?

The Nets had a plan, it failed but at least they had a damn plan.

Magic...the fuck they doin down there.

 

[kaiju]

Zaza gave this to Klay during practice today:

Effin' hilarious lol.

Also, Kerr was at practice today. Hope that means he is one step closer to a return.

The chemistry on this well coached uber talented team just isn't fair.

It's all fun and games until Zaza gets Final MVP

 

[Cooter]

It's all fun and games until Zaza gets Final MVP

That means they won so I'm good with that.

 

[Cipherr]

Damn a cavs player broke his hand in practice?

Its just not happening this year... These end of season injuries man. Its gonna take its toll.
