MIL just went on a 45-10 run. Yeah, the Bucks are good. I'm glad we upgraded from Coach Casey though, he wasn't able to adapt at all mid-game.

 

Also, the Pistons have now lost 14 straight playoff games :eek:

Yeah 8-31 was a massive hole, and I knew of all the injuries, Quickley just got back and is on limited minutes, I think this is the first time the last 2 games with their full rotation, all of a sudde

Cool - that's reasonable enough.  However, after seeing the G-League lineup they played last night, I think I better wait until the start of the next season to go...

It might be the most shocking trade I've ever seen. Superstar for superstar and it came out of absolutely nowhere.

Raps will handle Philly but lose to whichever of Bos/Mil

 

They can take Boston... They don't scare me. Don't want any party of Milwaukee though.

Ok, finish it Tuesday, no screwing around, no keeping them close, for a last minute buzzer shot.. Step on their neck and finish it!

 

Thank you!

 

Too bad it didn't rub off on the Leaves..

I am not sure if the time off will be good. I tend to believe it backfires and guys lose their rhythm and groove.

I almost feel bad for Orlando. This series was not close.

 

That’s my first time watching their center, I’d see some big games in the box scores during the season. He didn’t look impressive. Gordon was very meh too. Not much to be excited about with them

Raps played tough D. Made them look useless.

They're built for playoff success this year

 

The first round in the East was a joke. None of those teams had a shot in the world in a 7 game series.

This next round it should get good

Agreed.

 

Philly can be scary but if we play a smart defensive structure I think we'll do well.

Man, is it ever nice to have 2 former NBA Defensive Players of the Year to match up against Embiid and Butler, not to mention Lowry drawing multiple charges per game, and Green and Siakam also being plus defenders. The Raps starting 5 might actually be the top D in the playoffs.

Russ being Russ. On his way to triple double halfway through the 3rd but 6 for 18 from the field lol.

Lillard drops 34 in first half

Let's see how the Celtics handle the Bucks before giving away that title.

Wow, what a choke by OKC in the final minutes. They had the game in hand.

 

Portland is a very underrated team. I hope Denver advances and I can get some nice odds taking the Blazers to win the series.

It's funny, Lillard is getting all kinds of love for that game winning shot. Good thing he made it, because they didn't even attempt to run a play with plenty of time available. Instead he takes an extreme range three that probably had a 20% chance of actually going in. It was a terrible play call and shot selection, with a lucky result.

He was something like 5/5 or 9/9 on shots from beyond 30+ in that series. It's a bad shot for most players and definitely not what Terry Stotts would have wanted him to do, but he sure made a statement with it. I don't think it's as much luck as you think, he's an excellent outside shooter with plenty of range. Sometimes you gotta whip your dick out and take that kind of shot because you can.

Well, I mean that was a 36' shot. He was closer to the half court than the three point line. He had plenty of time to get a much closer, higher percentage look. It was a bad decision with a good outcome for him.

 

Here's the data for the shot: https://stats.nba.com/events/?flag=3&CFID=&CFPARAMS=&PlayerID=203081&TeamID=1610612757&GameID=0041800165&ContextMeasure=FGM&Season=2018-19&SeasonType=Playoffs&RangeType=2&StartPeriod=1&EndPeriod=10&StartRange=28748&EndRange=28800&section=game&sct=plot

Lloyd (then World B.) Free was shooting from out there for 2 points in his day, a pioneer.

Jokic is a monster. He has an outside chance at a 50 point triple double.

 

It took both Aldridge and DeRozan shooting lights out to combat Jokic. This series has been the pick of the first round (the Warriors have only lost 2 through complacency).
