2024 NBA Playoffs


Recommended Posts

The injuries are really catching up with the Knicks.

KAT might be the most important person for Minnesota.  You know Edwards will bring it every night, but he needs help.  Someone said Minnesota was +5 with Edwards on the court last night and -13 when he was off.  

The two games in Denver KAT had 20 and 27.  14 and 13 at home.

Crazy series, but a lot of fun. Everyone thought Denver was cooked - some were even calling it a sweep - when the Wolves went up 2-0.

Indy crushing NY today was interesting as well.

Well, that was foolish then. I know that the Wolves were dominant in the first 2 games but experience means a whole lot in the NBA moreso than most sports and the Nuggets are a true champion so I figured at the very least that Denver would be a much tougher out in Minnesota, didn't see them blowing them out twice though.

Same is happening with OKC now too. The lack of experience is starting to show against a more experienced opponent. There always seems to be harsh lessons that have to be learned by young teams before they reach the pinnacle as us Pistons fans know all too well in the 80s then early 00s.

He can still turn it around.  But Giddey is a good example of why you want to see your young guys in the playoffs before you have to offer them big extensions.  

 

Giddy has been pretty bad in the playoffs. I was never a huge fan of him to start with though. Kinda felt like a slightly better version of Killian.

Mobley is really stepping up. Garland, not so much.

Hard for little guards to be highly successful in the league today. It's why I think it's possible that Dillingham and Sheppard slide down draft boards in favor of prospects with a better archetype like Buzelis/Holland etc.

Lets see if Minnesota doubles Jokic tonight.

He'd love that. 15 assist night incoming.

Did anyone see Draymond's comments on TNT after the game? Sure, everyone is talking about how Jokic used Gobert, but Draymond took it to cheap shot levels. To be expected from Dray I guess since he loves cheap shots in every form.

he'll eventually be on tv as a pundit until he says something too caustic.

chuck says inflammatory things but he's big, lovable charles barkley.  draymond is a bully and a prick.
