As long as you acknowledge stuff they do I think it’s fine. I mean, Lowry isn’t even playing the Celtics right now. I don’t really know why they’d get brought up in response to him. I'm a Mavs fan and hate Luka's incessant whining and distractions with his side game with the refs. Still really glad he is Mav though and expect he matures and grows out of that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it’s an Indiana thing we just are so hard on our own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuban, Kidd and the front office are getting all the attention in the trash dept. I think it is a bit unfair to Nico. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 https://fb.watch/kt7q4JM1qw/?mibextid=Nif5oz Great day in Pacers history. Reggie's 8 points in 9 seconds. Also listen to what a coherent Bill Walton sounds like. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGleas Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Ugh, geez, Jayson Tatum is an absolute mess offensively right now. He's 0-for-10 in the first half tonight and hasn't hit a 1st quarter shot since Game 3. C's up 7, but would he up 15-20 if Tatum could make anything. In Tatum's small defense he's played excellent defense and has 6 assists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see either of those guys moving, especially since Brown is now eligible for the super max since making the All-NBA 2nd team. They'll make some moves since Horford is retiring. I don't even see them moving on from the coach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They thought they could try to love Brown to avoid the super max contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s tough if they lose again that he has been the better player in two eliminations in a row and yet he still is second fiddle when the game is on the line. He might want to be the star on his own team. I still don’t see Boston doing it but Brown is so good eventually you have to think he will want to step out in the spotlight himself…at least that is what players use to want…hard to tell anymore with the joining up AAU stuff.

BGleas Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Just a meltdown of epic proportions right now. Celtics have been up between 7-14 basically all game, now its down to 2 and Tatum is 1-for-13. This would be completely comfortable if Tatum was even having just a normal Nad shooting night.

To that end it seems to me that the coach needs to start putting his foot down or something and be like look get the ball to Tatum or Brown. I understand Tatum has not been great this game but the role players and not playing their roles tonight. They are acting like they are stars.

Horrible, forced shots and bonehead turnovers. His "high IQ" label hasn't been what I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 What a turnaround! Gotta hand it to Jayson Tatum. After a miserable performance, he knocks down 4 three's in last 4 minutes to put this game away! As bad as he shot all game, that takes stones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah…law of averages or stone cold killer….with Tatum you can never tell. Guy is too good to be so poor at times. Came through when it counted though. Hard to see the Sixers winning a game 7 in the Garden…or whatever it’s called now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 Ja Morant seemed to learn his lesson. Was on IG Live yesterday flashing his gun. Last time it was 8 games. Maybe try 40 this time and see if half a season sends a message? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 I don't understand why he feels a need to be such a gangsta. I'm not at all opposed to him having a gun, but he's acting like an idiot. By now he should have a pretty good idea how the league views such displays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGleas Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 Going to post before Game 7 here. Two thoughts, 1) I think Embiid is on a mission and I'm not sure the Celtics can stop that, 2) the flip side is I can't see the Celtics not only losing this Game 7 at home but also losing 3 games at home in the same series. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoB2011 Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) So Brown got a tech for yelling at Niang... you have to kick Niang out then right? No way you can give an equal punishment for this situation. EDIT: That is just a laughably bad job by the officials. Scott Foster needs to go away.

Seeking6 Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 I've had game on in background so I can't comment with specifics but if Suns/Bucks are going to move on from their head coach I'd like to think Doc Rivers might be joining them. Or maybe Doc Rivers can ask his 2 biggest stars why they just decided to quit today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also wouldn't be surprised if they moved on from Harden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
