Play Nice The Official 2024/5 NBA Week 15/16 & 17 Thread

DT also won’t acknowledge it but Jokic was poor defensively today as well which would have played a factor

 

[hotchilli]

Sweeping Cavs another big step. Not bad for a team that probably won't have an All star. Amen Thompson is a beast, not sure what happens when Smith comes back but you can't take Amen out of the starting lineup. 7-3 against rest of top 6.

Blown a couple of big leads but still get it done at the end. That lack of a legit closer might be what costs us come the playoffs.

Extra good today as a fair few Cavs fans were talking smack after we beat them the other day about what they would do with Mobley back at home....

I feel like Jabari is going to come off the bench, I just can't see Ime sending Brooks to the bench.

More good news for the heat.

Haywood Highsmith over me?

Can't believe Jimmy keeps taking the bait

Heat want to keep suspending him without pay.

Butler and Love's Instagram's were pretty funny

The lakers have only played 5 B2B games all season, lol

Teams around them inc Clippers (10), Nuggets/Kings/Mavs/Thunder (9), Rockets (8).

Unreal

The lakers schedule is backended. They also suffer annually from the Grammys stadium takeover

Charlotte commentators are funny.

The hoop at which the lakers are shooting at is larger than the hornets.

AD 17 points and 10 boards already in teh first quarter.

Lakers lead by 18.

The equivalent of having 5 & 3 against competent team

Battle of Florida has commenced.

If we get within 20 then Florida is ours

Lamelo ball ankle injury (rolled). Out for the game.

 

[Memphis]

Rockets are so good in transition.

 

[Memphis]

its refreshing to see a poster acknowledging too many foul calls on the opponent.

 

[peternorth]

Max Christie hits a 3 and fouled! Commentators "NOOOOOO"

 

[peternorth]

DORIAN FINNEY SMITH!!!

 

[peternorth]

haahhaha hornets ball. originally it went the other way.

 

[peternorth]

You can see this coming a mile away. Big Laker lead is always extinguished. they get lazy and complacent

 

[Gak Attack]

Cant have a starting backcourt as inconsistent as ours. Far too much difference between their good and bad. At a minimum a more reliable point guard.

 

[Nicho50]

Beautiful sight when the Knicks flex
