Lol. Celtics since 86!
I just don’t follow blindly, and i appreciate good basketball.

Maybe everybody is blind and you're the only one who can see.

Ant Man has not made a single All-NBA team so far.

Maybe this year.

Lol. The dude is 22. Even JT is not this good at that age.

But you do realize that 1 great series doesn't automatically make you a great player, right?

Of course. I’d like to see what he does in the next rounds and this entire playoffs before we proclaim him. You just can’t deny the talent though.

The talent is there.

He's legit, no doubt about that.

I would just like to see more because last season I watched him get squashed by the Nuggets.

He was just average last season. Played awful in the playin, where they could have beaten the lakers if he mad shots in the end. Towns was still their best last year.

Yeah, I agree.

If Ant and the Wolves take down the Nuggets then that will officially launch Ant into stardom.

Exactly! I think they are cocky enough to even play with pressure.

True.

I don't think the Jays need to be really cocky, but they have to handle pressure better.

It's going to be tough to take down Denver if their head coach misses significant time.

Is it really serious?

I thought people were just messing about the coach getting hurt.

Tatum almost got the Celtics to the Finals in his age 21 season, and he was the clear cut best player on that team.

People need to stop with the nonsense that Durant is a difference maker. You don’t get swept 2 out of 3 years in the first round if you are a difference maker. Durant is an aging talented scorer and that’s it.

That is some AL Horford erasure and I won't stand for it. A utility ball player might have called him Average Al on the radio but he was anything but.

Al even at 36-37, he switched onto I think Herro in G3 and locked him on the perimeter. Scary Terry also took Bledsoe’s soul that second round.

Feel Miami makes a move for KD.

Yes, it is Al Horford erasure, because he wasn’t on the team at the time.

This is the JT is only 19 meme in real time, lol. Tatum was in his age 21 season in the bubble year.

Happy to see the Suns swept. Never a big Booker fan think he's overrated. There was a year or so when people compared him to Tatum and now I think that has more than been settled on whose better. Then Durant of course being Durant. Beal bothered me just because of the chatter in the past on radio on how we should have targeted him possibly with Brown as a trade piece...just more validation that that would have been a terrible trade.

They should. It's sort of embarrassing for them IMO, Riley should have gotten something bigger then Rozier done in the past two years. Wasting Butlers prime.

Edwards was great vs Nuggets last year..had a great series despite losing

NBA playoff is weird. I am finding myself rooting for Harden (which I hate) to beat Dallas (which I hate more)
Rooting for NY to win against the drama queens (and I want both teams to lose...)

Also, Indiana is playing the most enjoying basketball out there. A lot of ball movement and player movement and a lot of heart and hustle on defense. I don't know if they would win against a full Bucks team, but this team plays the game the right way

Hard to believe it, but in these playoffs so far:

Curry and Thompson lost in the play in tourney.
Durant and Booker swept in 1st round.
Lebron and Davis down 3-1 and could be out in first round.
Embiid and Maxey down 3-1 and could be out in first round.
Giannis and Dame down 3-1 and could be out in first round.
