NBA discussion thread

I don't think he's trying to take anything away from the Warriors, but you gotta give credit to Nellie as well, he knows Dirk just as good as anyone in the league, and his gameplan has flustered Dallas with the exception of last night.

I honestly don't see it going past 6 but if it does the Mavs will close it out. And yes I'm confident enough that I would put my money where my mouth is on that. The question is would you?

I said I could see it happening, I didn't predict that it would happen.

But sure, I'll bet on it. If it goes to Game 7 and GS wins, you have to use a sig of my choosing for 2 weeks. If Dallas wins, I have to use a sig of your choosing for 1 week.(since you obviously have the advantage)

Here we go with these lineups again...

Their stars are on the bench and we got our scrubs in.

Im glad to see Phil remembered that Turiaf is on the team, as soon as he gets in he hits a few jump hooks and hustles on defense. Why Cook gets in the game before him i will never understand, especially when all Cook can do is shoot 3's (which we should be discouraging).

Kobe out, the Suns go on a run - coincidence i think not. Walton has been awful the whole series, he looks completely intimidated. Kwame is pretty much the same, i cant believe a guy of his size plays so soft (then again its hard to be physical in the post when the Suns just flop on any contact - have i said how much i hate that?)

LMAO @ Kwame bulldozing over jones, taking a dribble drop step, looks back at Jones instead of dunking the ball, travels, lays it up and then a foul is called on Jones. I'm pretty sure that is how it went.

Kwame has been terrible tonight, injuries or not you only need to look at how Lamar is playing to see you still have to bring it. Lamar is playing like he's possessed right now, he is carrying the team through this quarter. He is more banged up than any Laker but he's not going down without a fight, thats all you can ask for from him.

He's alive ...... Kwame's alive!! 😆

😆

Either Lamar or Kobe is going to have to take over this quarter for them to win. And I hope that he stops missing layups a foot away from the basket.

Lamar has 5 fouls so its gonna be hard for him to stay aggressive with the way the Suns flop. Kobe needs to keep going to the rack, he hasnt been getting many calls tonight but he has to keep forcing the refs to make the call.
Amare should have fouled out in the 3rd quarter, doesnt anyone call the "over the back" foul anymore? He's been doing it all series and it makes it pointless to try and box him out.

And this DUMBASS puts Cook back in. I almost just want to start crying!! WTF is he doing!!!?!?!?

😆 I was just gonna post the same thing, yeah Cook is just what we need right now.

I noticed that the refs haven't been calling alot of "over the back" calls in the playoffs so far, there were a ton in the SA/Denver series. Speaking of SA, Finley was on fire, 8/9 from behind the arc. I'm looking foward to seeing the SA/Pnx series, thats right, I went there 🙂

Its hard to argue with that wuTster, even if by some miracle the Lakers get this one the Suns have 2 more chances to close it out.

BS no calls...

You can't them to get the close calls on the Suns court.

?

Kobe has to take some blame here, instead of complaining about non calls - how about getting back on D? I understand the frustration but damn, you are only hurting the team by not getting back.

Kobe blame = 0

refs = 10000000000000

Someone give Marion a ****in cape 😱 😱

Awful shooting night for Kobe.
