Around the NBA: February 2019 edition!

[Titan]

Philly is really trying to help us out.

But they are playing OKC who sat Paul George and sixers are playing without Embiid, what is this nonsense

 

[DDolla]

TNT crew talking about Toronto and Portland in the NBA Finals hehehe

 

[trailblazer18]

Philly is really trying to help us out.

And Butler trying to sabotage. Hang on Philly...

 

[Titan]

This OKC/sixer game is intense, wish sixers would hold onto the ball though

Yeah, I think Kenny Smith might have mixed up his meds

 

[BonesJones]

It's very weird only being 4.5 games back of 1st going into March.

 

[julius]

Thanks Philadelphia, although you tried your best to botch it at the end.

 

[andalusian]

I knew I could count on Westbrook to go 1-9 from 3

I'm not trying to goad you into an argument, but do you think GS is vulnerable this year, or that they just don't care about the regular season that much?
I'm just not quite sure what to make of it, they were the 2nd seed last year, but Houston also almost took them out.

I think GSW is trying to make sure they're healthy and Boogie has a rhythm going into the playoffs.
Iggy and Livingstone aren't spring chickens anymore.
I do think GSW isn't as deep as they have been in the past, and might go with a 7 or 8 man rotation in the playoffs...
Instead of being able to plug and play vets like West McGee ZaZa Clark etc.

 

[THE HCP]

I knew I could count on Westbrook to go 1-9 from 3

Without him, they would have lost by 20 though.

 

[THE HCP]

Thank you Sixers. Now who are we rooting for in Game #2?

 

[Labinot41]

Fuck OKC

 

[H.C.]

Don't worry.
Westbrick got his triple double.
All is right in the world.

Both teams missing their best player and Simmons outplays Westbrick.

 

[tlongII]

Dubs and OKC both lost. Nice. I’d love to see Utah down Denver too but don’t think it’ll happen.

Yeah, Houston losing too would've been fantastic, 2 out of 3 ain't too bad though

Denver just doesn't lose at home.

Love me some Monte Morris!

Not so fast my man.

 

[trailblazer18]

Not so fast my man.

Utah is taking it to them so far. I guess Denver can't handle the pressure of being the 1 seed.

 

[joeBlazers]

We could be #3 seed by the end of our road trip.

 

[Pinwheel1]

They are up 13 but I don't think the Jazz will hold on. Lot of time

 

[andalusian]

Without him, they would have lost by 20 though.

That's the curse of Westbrook, he has tons of talent and tools, if he played smarter they would be real contenders.

 

[Titan]

Jokic just picked up 5th foul

 

[andalusian]

Love watching thrill

 

[Titan]

Man I miss Will

 

[THE HCP]

Love watching thrill

You question Westbrook’s basketball IQ, yet you love watching Barton play? Good lord man.

Complacent. Probably don't care about the regular season.

 

[THE HCP]

Donovan Mitchell. His stats are basically the same, but just by the eye test of watching him play, sure doesn’t seem as dominant as last season. I mean, wasnt’ he supposed to be the next best thing?

 

[DDolla]

Mitchell plays like Westbrook without the attitude.

 

[Labinot41]

Imagine thinking Russell Statsbrick is better than Damian Lillard
