Jontay Porter - gambled on the sport, which is the least egregious given what his other brothers have done. Coban Porter - just sentenced to six years in prison for killing someone in a drunk driving crash. Jevon Porter - arrested for suspicion of DWI. I'm kidding but not kidding. How many brothers does MPJ have?! Link to comment

I'm sure that he has another playoff dud in him for Game 6 or in Game 7 if the Clippers get there. As for the Celtics, they won last night with ease to put away the Heat. Yay. 😒 If that game was on ESPN last night, I would of taken a nap at halftime. Is there anyway possible that the Knicks will lose to the 76ers tonight? Edited May 2 by Magog Link to comment

Sadly for him & the Bucks, they're in Cancun right now because they got their butts kicked in the 2nd half & went down to the Pacers 120-98. And Pat Bev was being his usual self. He only got 6 points & showed more energy & effort in doing this than what he did on the court last night. Chuck reacts to Pat Bev throwing ball at Pacers Fan in conclusion, Doc Rivers failed again & I can't wait to see him fail again next season. As for the Knicks, they won last night. Yay. 😒 The Knicks - Pacers is really going to bring some excitement. 😒 Orange & Blue Skies, Orange & Blue Skies. 😒 BTW, Tobias Harris got 0 points last night. I don't think he did very much against the Knicks. Also, thanks to that loss, Joel Embiid is now currently the only MVP in NBA History who hasn't reached a Conference Final.

Then you would of enjoyed last night's game. Clippers - Mavericks were tied at 52 at halftime & then Kyrie pretty much took over the 2nd half. He got 28 of his 30 in the 2nd half & basically put away the Clippers with ease 114-101. Another year. Another Playoff dud for James Harden & Pandemic P (Paul George). I can't wait to see another Playoff dud from these 2 losers next season. Kawhi Leonard didn't play last night with his knee soreness & Im starting to think he is just about done. He can't seem to stay healthy at all like he did in his 1 yr in Toronto. As for Cavaliers - Magic, they're going to be a Game 7 tomorrow afternoon at 1pm after the Magic won Game 6 last night. Yay. 😒 The 2nd round in the WEST will have Mavericks - Thunder starting Tuesday Night. Timberwolves - Nuggets will start tonight. Any casual NBA fan worth a damn will seek & check out these 2 potential very entertaining series. Hopefully, nobody will listen to Mike Greenberg & ignore these 2 series while he's still pissing & moaning about Lebron, Steph, & KD currently being out of the Playoffs.

roamyn May 6 Share May 6 Biggest comeback in NBA playoff history today, with the Cavs overcoming an 18-pt deficit to beat the Magic by 12. The Cavs do love setting records (ie the 1-3 comeback Championship in 2016). 2 Link to comment

The Pacers only lost by 4, really by 1 if you take away the bonehead technical foul on Brunson before the inbounds at the end. Refs aside, cut down on a few turnovers and run them up and down the court, and I think they have a good shot. It's just mentally for game 2 whether they can keep the intensity up. Link to comment

I'm not too surprised since the expectations were there for these outcomes to occur. I do agree that LA would have lost to the TWolves, but that didn't come up since it was more likely that LA would beat OKC and avoid one of Minnesota or Denver in a possible second round had the Lakers been the 8th seed. Nice stuff from Minnesota, as they'll always have this West Semis in their history on their way toward getting completely pummeled by the East winner Link to comment

Carey May 10 Share May 10 1 hour ago, Marley said: Woo go Cleveland - fuck Boston lol. Mixed feelings for me. This is who Boston is. They'll roll in one of their first two games, then they'll do the opposite. It's great they took care of Miami this time, but they'll probably do nothing in Cleveland before turning it on again. I don't know or think they'll fall to New York, but if they can't take both games on the road, then all of a sudden they'd have to battle against New York (assuming they get to the ECF). That is good news for the West winner if things get to that point Link to comment
DoctorAtomic May 10 Share May 10 I think Indiana is the more challenging match up for Boston. I know the Pacers are down 2, but I still feel like they're beating themselves more than getting beat. 1 Link to comment
Fukui San May 10 Share May 10 Apparently the Celtics have been like 15-15 at home in recent playoff games (since 2021) but with a .700+ winning percentage on the road in the same time period. Whoever the Celtics play, they'll play to the level of the competition even if they're better on paper. They'll get away with it until they don't. Link to comment
Magog May 12 Share May 12 (edited) The Celtics won game 3 last night. Yay. 😒 In much happier news, the NBA Lottery is today & will happen in 2 hours. This yrs upcoming Draft is pretty weak, but there are some gems to be found. Edited May 12 by Magog Link to comment
Magog May 12 Share May 12 (edited) Here are the results of the 2024 NBA Lottery. 1 - Hawks (Can't wait to see how they'll find a way to mess this up.) 2 - Wizards ( I feel bad for whoever they pick because Jordan Poole is still around & will be a bad influence.) 3 - Rockets (The Rockets will be even better if they can get rid of Dillon Brooks in the offseason.) 4 - Spurs 5 - Pistons (HA HA HA!!) That's what they get for not getting loss #29 & winning more than 9 games (14). 6 - Hornets 7 - Trail Blazers 8 - Spurs 9 - Grizzlies 10 - Jazz 11 - Bulls 12 - Thunder 13 - Kings 14 - Trail Blazers Edited May 12 by Magog 3 Link to comment

Carey May 13 Share May 13 Well, making it to the Western Finals let alone next month is looking less probable than more probable. I didn't post what I imagine Barkley preached again, where a team that wins both of the first 2 games of a series on the road is facing a must-win at home. While it's usually the case if you lost both of those games, I get it. While most teams are lucky to win just one of those games, it's pretty important if that other team is a much better team. I may have seen it coming if Denver didn't look super awful at home. I guess things are going to be interesting going forward for everybody. You never know what Denver or Minnesota team will turn up, and who knows if Boston can play as well as everybody else at home...all the time Link to comment
DoctorAtomic May 14 Share May 14 The Cavs gave a lot, but Boston gets that 9 point cushion and they seem to be able to hold on if the opponent goes to the 3 too much. I think Boston is hoping Pacers and Knicks goes the distance so they can get some rest. 1 1 Link to comment
Magog May 15 Share May 15 The Knicks beat up the Pacers last night 121-91. Yay. 😒 Jalen Brunson lead the way as usual with 44 points.

Mike Conley is hurt right now (Achilles) & if he doesn't play tonight, they probably have no chance. Also Jokic is tormenting them for the past 3 games like its nothing.

baldryanr May 19 Share May 19 If the Pacers can replicate their 67% FG percentage (and above 50% from three) then they can beat the Celtics. Otherwise, a gentleman's sweep is the most likely outcome. Being a Knicks fan continues to be an exercise in futility. It's almost as bad as rooting for the Sixers. 1 Link to comment
