NBA 2018 NBA Playoffs

Whiteside looked like he had no interest in coming back into the game. Comes back in and plays like crap.

Olynyk has been better than him by a large margin.

 

[Halladay]

76ers dominated the 4th.

Yeah cause KO not out there pouting like a child lol

Anyone else sick of hearing about Embiid's mask?

 

[Avs_19]

That was a close game for around 3.5 quarters but Embiid was just far too much in the end.

Loved what I saw from Winslow and hopefully he keeps getting opportunities. Dragic and Richardson were good as well.

There's nothing to really say about Whiteside anymore. I've been begging them to trade him for a while now and it seems like Riley's refusal to do so will really cost them. I can't imagine anyone wanting to take him on unless it's a swap of bad contracts.

Portland getting wrecked.
As much as I like Dame Lillard as a player, this playoff go around has been terrible.

 

[EpochLink]

The twitter world is not feeling Damian Lillard right now, calling him a glorified Monta Ellis who can rap.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

The Nuggets would have provided the Warriors much more of a test than these old Spurs...

what happened to portland?

what happened to portland?

A very bad matchup against New Orleans.
Rondo and Holliday tearing up that back court with AD manning the bottom.

Dame and CJ have no answer, more so for Dame as he is getting roasted by his performance so far.

 

[Cassano]

Jrue has to be up their with one of the best defensive guards in the league. What he's doing right now is nothing short of fantastic.

Also the Pelicans have a better record without Boogie right? That's crazy. I'm hoping he returns there and they find a way to trade for Kawhi somehow. That'll be the best team in the league.

what happened to portland?

A lot of folks coming in thought they might have been a bit overrated. Looks like that's being proven true. I had this series going either way but figured it would be a good long maybe 7-gamer. Really surprised that New Orleans has outplayed them so heavily.

 

[b1e9a8r5s]

NO is a really bad matchup for Portland and the reality is that people looked at the seed (#3) more than the record. There's Hou, GS then everyone else. Yeah Portland was the 3 seed, but they were 3 games ahead of the #9 seed. Them losing to NO really isn't that shocking, as they were 1 game better in the standings. It's just surprising that they look like they'll get swept.

 

[tony d]

I'm surprised at Portland too. Figured they'd be closer with the Pelicans than they are.

 

[Avs_19]

I thought the Pelicans/Blazers series would be competitive and one of the better ones in the first round. I never expected the Pelicans to have the better back court.

 

[Reality Check]

3-8 is all but interchangeable in the West. But Portland is just getting abused.

Despite all his faults, Rondo is a winner and usually makes the team he plays for better.

 

[Duke33]

Portland may have peaked too early with that long win streak too, now that I think about it.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Pacers about to pull off a heck of a comeback win. They trailed by 17 at one point, I believe.

 

[Avs_19]

Bojan can't be stopped.

Pacers take the 2-1 series lead. No flipping the switch this year for the Cavs. They'll have to really work for it if they're going to advance.

 

[Jack Straw]

Impressive win by the Pacers. Cavs have arguably been outplayed in all three games so far. Getting hard to see how they win this series.

LeBron doing what he did last game might be the only way because that team isn't very good.

 

[Virtanen18]

Seeing it a lot and noticing it a lot more in the games .Dame is just asking for a screen every time up the court. Pels are just like sure we'll come trap to get the ball out of your hands or make you make a crap decision

No adjustment thru 3 games.

Wow, what a win by the Pacers.

With no Kyrie at hand and Kevin Love being limited, its like Lebron is back to the pre-2010 Cavs era.

 

[Lord Helix]

The Bucks look great so far. Maker with 3 blocks in a minute or so.

 

[EpochLink]

The Raptors have hit a snag in Washington.
