NBA 2018-2019

Who is more boring, JJ Redick or Kyle Korver? Most one-dimensional players ever.
 
Durant is a bitch but he's better than Kawhi
 
We won't win an NBA championship let alone a conference final with just Kawhi scoring points for us. The players will continue trotting out the "stats don't matter" line, but in the end, buckets in games, not stopping buckets. Kawhi can't always carry the offensive burden for us. We need others to step up their game and be able to score points consistently for us. As much as their scorers struggled, they still took their open shots. Our just kept struggling.
 
fecking sick of refs again. Kanter gets called for an offensive foul for nothing and Jokic yet again is allowed to push and shove as he likes.
 
Lillard has been bad in these series so far. We have been abysmal in third quarter.
 
What a disaster of a quarter. Probably going to lose this game and give the home court back to Denver. Shite.

Jokic shoves himself into Lillard and no foul is called, Millsap does the same 1 second later and it’s a foul. I don’t get it. It isn’t even as if they favor Denver, for some reason it’s just Jokic.

Another great game between the two teams at the end. So evenly matched teams. We are going to lose but we fought back. This is probably going to game 7...
 
Dame has been so bad in these series so far. Awful.
 
Love this Nuggets team so much , so much heart. To win that on the road after the 4ot loss is absolutely incredible for such a young team . Murray and Jokic are proper stars

I like Murray. He’s clutch. I hate Jokic. If he’s reffed fairly he’s not on the floor in 4th quarter of any of these games. I get that he’s fat and could be clumsy but you can’t treat him different to other players just because he’s a great story. Millsap literally got called for the same thing on the same possession, and then for less.
 
Basically all down to Dame not hitting his free throws, aside from being bad all game. Murray showed him how it’s done. A third year player has outplayed him all series, he has to step up now.

Going to be very tough for us to win the series now but not impossible. Tonight was the time to go 3-1 up and we messed up that third quarter so badly.
 
Extremely impressive win for the Nuggets after the tough loss in game 3. It takes real guts, heart, and a strong mentality to come back from a loss like that and win at a hostile environment, especially for a young team like them. Thought Portland's experience in the postseason would show tonight and they would put Denver on life support, but the Nuggets showed they have mettle, resiliency, and aren't happy just to be in the 2nd round.

It's a toss-up now as to who wins this series. Denver have the home court and momentum so you'd reckon they have the advantage, but you wouldn't count out Dame having a game where he takes over and steals a win for Portland, he's due.

We could have all four series end up tied at 2-2 by the end of tomorrow night.
 
Playoffs have been amazing. Kawhi's clutch 3 the highlight of the night for me.

We've struggled so badly with rebounding, they've killed us on the boards on both sides of the floor and it's infuriating to watch. I don't think this would even be that close a series if we had Nurkic healthy. On the other hand if we didn't have Kanter we would be gone already, swept by Nuggets.

Collins has been extremely disappointing.

We really should have been 3-1 up at least by now, if we could rebound just slightly better or hit our free throws. We can't keep choking like that. Yes, refs have ensured that Jokic gets to do whatever he wants without getting called for more than 4 fouls, but still if Dame hits his free throws last night, if Collins isn't an idiot and does not get technical or if they don't invent a phantom foul on Kanter in third quarter, we win that game without problem. Circumstances of the loss last night are really annoying because Denver were there for the taking but we were just shite.

This is Dame's chance to make WCF. He will never have an easier opposition in round 2, he either has to do it now or he will never get there.
 
Kobe 06-10 is generous.

This image actually came from Bill Simmons who discussed this on a podcast recently. I am pretty sure that bill had Kobe there only for a couple of years but someone has changed that to 06-10 . It's just that there was no one that dominant during a lot of that period. I would have Duncan through most of the decade.
 
Considering Dame form in this series I guess Blazers can be relatively happy with 2-2

@mav_9me was right, this is all going in 7

Yeah I don't really get it. He was a shell of himself in the playoffs last year, was brilliant against OKC and now he's back to his Pelicans form. It's not even like they are putting great defenders on him, Harris is a good defender but half the time he's guarded by Murray who's just average.

Thank God we have CJ putting these performances, he's been so improtant for us in the playoffs so far and I feel stupid for saying we should have broken up that backcourt.
