BobbyCuomo Posted May 27, 2021 Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 Just saw on Reddit that OKC has unprotected control of the Clippers 1sts in 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26. So we both win with the Warriors getting Leonard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand signing Kawhi and to get PG they traded away their future star (SGA), you've got to shoot your shot for the ring, but man. What a gamble. Not to mention Doc Rivers figuring out how to get the most out of the 76er's while Ty Lue just stares blankly across the court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, you can give me Steph, Dame and Luka shooting from the logos over bigs with their back to the basket for 22 seconds taking 14 footers.

JarJarBlinks Posted May 27, 2021 Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 I actually think the playoffs have been excellent so far. Mil-Mia have sucked, and Brooklyn Boston have sucked, the rest have been good to great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Positive. I used to watch and love it, now I can’t watch. Simple. So if other people are also saying the same thing as you suggest, must be a reason, right?

Ghent Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 The NBA is in a great place right now. Approaching the best since the Jordan era? There are a number of entertaining young stars, all time great vets, and there are different franchises in the mix. NBA haters seem to be people that don’t follow it and just roll with a generic opinion they’ve heard from someone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBA haters seem to be people that don’t follow it and just roll with a generic opinion they’ve heard from someone else The game itself is more team oriented and more upbeat altogether which is fun, but the foul calls and no-touch allowed truly is infuriating, especially with ginormous players like Lebron or Zion getting touch fouls called on them is hard to watch. 3 pt focus over midrange/inside game, which makes sense, is kind of boring at times also. I can't get into it because I am not as invested in the players as I was early 2000s group, who'm are all gone now :_(, but it really does feel more like soccer or other sports now versus what the NBA used to feel like (WWE).

I do think they need to get the fouls under control. It's always going to be hard for a big guy like Lebron to feel like he's getting a fair whistle compared to a smaller guy, the fouls are just easier to see when you're small. Shaq dealt with that his whole career. The fouls on shots, Trae Young/Harden's bag of annoying foul tricks have gotta go though. Don't blame them for capitalizing on the system, but the system sucks when Trae just shoves his ass into a defender and it's magically a foul. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisx37 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 I agree that they need to get the fouls under control. That's one thing that absolutely needs to change. It seems like the offensive player can do anything he wants to create the contact, like jumping into the defender, the rip through move, or even hooking someone's arm and "making" them foul you (nice one, Harden). At that point you're defeating the purpose of a foul and you're just acting. And not only is it a cheap way to get points, but it hurts the entertainment value with all of the resulting free throws. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I'm not sure who I want to win this one. I'm a sucker for vets, CP3 is annoying but deserves to be there. Booker has grown on me, has game and Suns are just pretty fun to see there. Bucks are a good team, but Giannis seriously travels so much and is semi annoying, Middleton plays like Kobe is kind of bothersome too. If the Bucks were facing Los Angeles or something I'd be going crazy cheering for them, but against the Suns not so sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
