I don’t think it’s his last year either, but 23 years is forever, especially with him going deep in the playoffs pretty often and playing on the international team 5 summers. Bron is still good, but can he handle just being another top 15-20 player? I don’t think so
as our friend Front would say, he's probably on the juice:face-with-tears-of-joy:

Mike Breen just said what I was thinking. "If you just tuned in, that's not a digital glitch. The score really is 76-27." He said the Knicks were up by as many as 51. Haha. As well tempers got heated and both Robinson of NY and Daniels of ATL were tossed.

Down 50 in an elimination game I’d say Dyson made a business decision, may as well show some fight. I remember in 2015 Giannis practically body slammed Mike Dunleavy near the end of a season ending blowout loss to the Bulls and got tossed. I thought it was great of course, so good on Dyson I say.

The reason I asked if it was a typo cuz I actually experienced a wrong score last year. Went to the Bayou Classic at the Superdome. Grambling scored a TD in the 1Q w/ 4 mins left. They put the points on Southern board. LOL! It was like that for well into the 2Q. I get it. That's NOLA's scoreboard, but dude must have been sleeping on the job. Team would call a timeout and scoreboard would charge it to the Saints. Haha.

Philly up 58-49 at the break, but if Embiid rises up to take another brick 3 I will reach through this TV and slap some sense into him.

Looks like Boston -Philly is going 7. That is crazy! I know we’ve been giving Denver some shit and rightfully so. But they’ve been given a gift with Ant and even Donte going down and probably should end up winning the series now

And Denver still loses. Absolutely pathetic, you have to wonder where they go from here.

Do not adjust your TV sets, as they used to say.
that was crazy! I hope all the fools riding GSW about Kuminga take a step back now. He can be good, but then he can be BAD!! I woke up to watch Wolves-Nuggets, the last quarter of the Celtics game was still on. Those boys are choking away the series. Do they have no plan B??

he needs to do some work over the summer and develop some sort of offensive game. Take notes from what McDaniels did today. He was AWESOME!! Put Jamal Murray in his pocket and went out and said.. "Ant-Man who??". That was an incredible win. The backcourt injured, plus Dosummu injured and they do this?? I'll try not to slander Gobert anymore. He owned Jokic all series. Stopped the 3s, and assists. I'm not sure they get more than one game against San Antonio. Looks like we'll get what we want.. Spurs vs OKC. I don't see anything in the East that's stopping either of those two

Those Wolves deserve a ton of respect the last few years, but yeah I’m sure the Spurs will handle them given the injuries. If Ant was in there it’d be interesting, especially with the Wolves having way more playoff experience.

I agree about Gobert. He has become so disliked that people tend to underrate him.

Interesting times in the NBA. Denver is a question mark now. How do they make that team better. Jokic will be fine but some young blood around him maybe?
New York should be happy watching the game 7 between Boston and Philly, a game I did not think would ever take place. But then again I did not expect a game 6 between Detroit and Orlando either. This first round is all over the place. My Raps need a home win to force a game 7. And THEN they go home.
I am enjoying this though.

I just tuned into NY/ATL. There's 4 minutes left in the 2Q and the score is 74-25. Say whaaat! Is that a typo?
Same here.. I had to refresh my screen 3 times and next checked the box score to see if the knicks had scored via a barrage of 3s.. that wasnt the case.. it was only 5 3s.. they hit over 75 percent during a large portion of the first half.. that's ridiculous.. no D fense in the ATl.. the hawks players must spent too much time at Magic City eating Lou Williams seasoned lemon pepper wings while getting private dances instead of watching film and practicing

the TWolves are and have always been an incredible bad match up for Jokic and the unathletic Nuggets. the Timberwolves have the best wings players in the league next to OKC.. the Nuggets have always been overrated.. Even when they won the championship. they never faced a good team or a team that won over 50 games during the regular season. Jokic cant jump higher than DarthFed, Kelli or myself and we are old!! jajaja (no disrespect to Kelli and DarthFed)

Man we must be operating on the same wavelength as I joked with a buddy of mine last night that the Hawks better offer their fans free passes to Magic City to make up for that game.

And you may be onto something as the young bucks on the team must have received the “Patrick Ewing in Hotlanta” treatment instead of prepping for games.

And great call out on the Lou Williams wings, they had a whole damn story on that during Covid when he was spotted there, lmao.

Therein lies the genius of Jokic. He does all he does without jumping...playing basketball ! Can't beat that, no? ;)

I love watching the Joker and he already is an all-time great. But this was a disaster of a loss for him, way worse than a couple years ago when they first lost to the Wolves. The narrow loss to a way superior OKC team last year isn’t damaging. And he’s 31, way too early to pour dirt on him.

He’d dominate any era with just his passing and shooting at that size, it’s incredible. Basically a large oaf version of Bird that can bang down low

Bird was special... I think to be in Larry's you have to be a cold blooded assassin like Michael and Kobe.. Neither one is trying to be anyone's friend and would try to take their own grandmother on the court if she challenged them. Joker needs swing or wing players who are snipers plus some mean dawgs surrounded by him like Dillion Brooks or Dort and Caruso to do the dirty work for him like the light skinned splash bros had Draymond. In hockey, they call them goons but in the NBA they are known as enforcers..
