Lakers firing Ham so he can come hang out for the championship run in MKE.

Bucks haven't fired anymore coaches than they have recently.

It would be really weird if LA hired JJ to replace Darvin. Right after he started that podcast with LeBron.

hey to each their own. But I don't get how being a former player doing media trumps a former player actually putting in the time coaching being an assistant. But hey, if you can get that big check without doing the work so be it. And of course I'm not saying a tv/pod guy can't be a good coach, just that they have less experience/training etc for the job if you're comparing resumes.

Given Embiid's antics, hope they go 7 but bow out & Bucks advance to face NYK. Rather not have him take out anyone on the team with a serious injury.

As electric as the Knicks have been & giving up homecourt. If Giannis is back, he tends to cook at MSG & Dame probably will too.

Philly is having difficulty selling out Game 6? That's embarrassing.

It's sold out. Their owners bought out tickets on the secondary market

Second consecutive Lakers coach where it's been reported that they will be fired in a couple days. What is the point of this? Why the lag?

Well, Knicks can just blow out Philly, now that Doc blew the coaching game.

Get ready to sweep the Pacers ASAP.

Another Knicks home game. Philly does not trust or care enough about this Sixers team apparently.

Knicks will definitely murder Indiana. Looking forward to it.

Pacers are getting swept 2nd round. Knicks are legit and for the most part much much much healthier than this Bucks team.

As much as our situation has sucked, philly just keeps drifting further from contention every year

Maybe the Pacers get confidence for winning a playoff series but they are in for a bit of a wake up call if they're playing the Knicks.

Of course Philly has more fight than us.
