NBA Week 19/20 - Where we pull a Swiftie

[Memphis]

Don’t adjust your eyes 140-88.

Clapped them.

 

[Nicho50]

Brunson injured in the first minute. Can’t take a trick with injuries at the minute.

 

[peternorth]

Beal what a moron. Barely can play as it and gets ejected with a cowardly act when he does. Although it's got the Suns going.

Nothing in it. But hes an idiot. Head is sacrosanct

 

[Nicho50]

Considering we lost JB in the first minute that’s gotta be one of the best wins we’ve had this season considering the outs we had. I know Spida was missing to but that was huge.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Does that count as tanking? Kerr rested his stars for the entire 2nd half. Don't see that very often.

Why would that be tanking?

Old Yeller Warriors on their last legs needing to be put out to pasture

But tonight we got...

It’s bostons to lose this year.

This.

It’s bostons to lose this year.

I mean this sincerely, the only way they do not make the finals this year is if Dame winds the clock back seemingly out of nowhere. I see no other potential threat in the East.

A super white hot Dame/Giannis duo, could, be enough but even that would require the Celtics to be off their best.

That's all hypothetical and as a big Dame doubter myself, it ain't happening chief. Celtics v Nuggets in the finals and from there, still wouldn't count out Jokic. Nothing is a given in the NBA.

Feel like we say this every year about Boston lol.

And don’t give me the ‘it’s a different team this year’. The east is a s*** show.

Hilarious if Miami finish in the 8 seed

Yeah they are clear favourites but before the play offs last year the suggestion of Miami knocking out Boston would have gotten you laughed out of town.

Boston are great but they aren’t completely unbeatable in the play offs

Joker knows what to do and how to win a chip. He's the most vital and pivotal player in the playoffs when they come.

also Lillard only averages 19 ppg against the clippers

Guess he didn't get the memo today.

 

[DT_35]

Ant man late for tip off lol. Must’ve been busting for a s***

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Poole being killing it off the bench since he moved there. Funny how much that kind of change makes to his game

 

[Toffee Lion]

Haven't heard the Fiserv like this since 2021.

 

[Toffee Lion]

I'm smelling belief coming back into this Bucks squad.

Dame just has to maintain this going into the playoffs and things can happen.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Most fun win of the season. If Dame plays like that more often, I'll change my mind about him.

 

[peternorth]

D-Lo us is in the zone. Raining 3 balls

 

[peternorth]

Former Laker Muscala on the court now

 

[peternorth]

Lakers wont play a sub 500 team until march 18 (USA local time).

Is it the 40% from the field or 30% from 3 that is impressing you as a bench player? Maybe you mean the -14pp 100 possessions?

Oh, you mean "Killing" Washington.

Maybe it was worse when he was starting

 

[tigs2010]

Yes. We. Did
