Live Event The 2019 NBA playoffs thread - Round 1 and Conference Semi finals

[Son of Skeletor]

Jeez, you know it's bad for Indy when ESPN says their top performer was Thad Young with 7 whole points.

giannis is deadset one of those monstars from space jam

 

[fidstar]

Bucks not messing around early.

 

[peternorth]

thon maker.

 

[ioppolo]

That Celtics-Pacers score reminds me of my early days of following NBA in 08-09

 

[BEaston]

Fair enough.

Nevertheless, there does seem to be an idea around that Dallas and Houston aren't major markets, which I've never really understood, based on the reasons I outlined earlier.

Have you ever been to Dallas or Houston? s**t holes. It's nothing to do with population.

 

[fidstar]

If Blake isn't going to play you might as well just let the Bucks have a first round bye.

 

[fidstar]

Bucks are so underrated.

If you just looked at the way teams were playing they'd be comfortable favorites to win it all.

Maybe they don't get it this year, but next year (if we lose Durant), they should probably be favorites.

 

[fidstar]

Bucks almost scored in a half what Indy scored in their game (70 vs 74)

 

[fidstar]

Bucks up 41.

Drummond ejected.

Competitive game in Milwaukee...

the bucks have gone with the 2015-17 cavs blue print of an unstoppable force surrounded by some of the best shooters in the league.. and naturally they’re a lot better defensively. Scary.

 

[Westy Bogan]

Pistons really should have tanked and gotten in the lottery

Thats just how Magic built the Lakers....

A large portion of Chicago and surrounds are a freezing shithole during the NBA season, yet they consistently sell out their large building, even with a crappy team.

The market is there, the Texan teams just need to tap into it. If that means adjusting prices to better fit with local socio-economic conditions for the "everyman", so be it.

In terms of local investment money and media and promotional opportunities for players and teams though, there's plenty of that already in Dallas and Houston.

 

[peternorth]

why are they booing thon thon?

Another mid-late lottery pick, to get themselves a Brandon Knight, or KCP, or Stanley Johnson...

 

[fidstar]

Thon thon tried to kill GA

 

[fidstar]

So boring today. 3/3 favorites won so far!

Now hopefully Utah and Houston beat the s**t out of each other.

 

[Mazza1234678]

is there anyone more overpaid in the league than reggie jackson?

 

[nahnah]

Mozgov, JR Smith, Solomon Hill, Ryan Anderson, Chandler Parsons, Otto Porter, Allen Crabbe, James Johnson, Tyler Johnson.


Yes

 

[fidstar]

Harden having his way.

 

[fidstar]

Drummond was -45 in 26 minutes today. Got to be a record.

 

[hamG]

When your started Thon Maker it seems somewhat unlikely you'd be considered a contender.

Dragan Bender probably has him covered so far.

 

[DontArgue4]

Harden with the quiet 29-10-8 and the Rockets get a 32 point win, oh and only 3 free throws for those playing at home

Jazz 27 fts, Rockets 12 fts

A Rocket fan complaining about a free throw court is like me complaining about Draymond getting a tech.
