The OFFICIAL 2013 NBA Playoffs Thread

Ken Berger ‏@KBergCBS 1m David Lee tore his right hip flexor on Saturday and is done for the season, league source says. He had an MRI today.

FML. I actually really like the Landry/Bogut 4/5 that Mark Jackson has only started using the last few games. The problem is now you have to play more Festus (maybe at PF), Draymond Green, or smallball with Barnes.

I guess the bigger problem is actually that the team at full strength rebounds very well. Denver is a great rebounding team, yet I liked our chances to win or draw the battle on the boards with Bogut, Lee, Landry, Festus plus good contributions from the perimeter guys. We outrebounded them by 10 last night even though they took fewer shots and shot a higher FG%. Now we might take a beating on the glass, which is very bad news.

Pau has missed 6 of 9 shots and has 2 TO's already. He's playing like shit and the Lakers are getting killed.

That means they are having technical difficulties and there is no need to call them.

Love watching the L*kers get waxed!

Ginobili: 19 minutes, +19, 18 points. He is a GOD.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Gianobli is great but a back court of Blake and Nash will not slow many teams down.

 

[KingSpeed]

Blake played good defense in stretches.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Blake played good defense in stretches.

What about after pre-game stretching?

 

[magnifier661]

Steve Blake; you can only hope to contain him

 

[Pinwheel1]

Blake played good defense in stretches.

He did, and Meeks is OK. But when you put all three together as your back court, you get "scrappy" at best. I believe they started Blake as their SG. That will work in stretches but when teamed with Nash.......SA must have been happy with that match up.

Why is Jennings breaking out the DMiles/QRich head bangs after made shots? He isn't cool enough to pull that off.

I think this series is over in 3.

Now that would be something!

 

[illmatic99]

Ya I expect MIL to forfeit after 3. Hell, they should probably save the anguish and embarrassment, they would be best served doing it now.

I was about to post how much of a blow out this series was going to be, yet here come the Bucks!

 

[illmatic99]

Jennings looks like AI right now

 

[KingSpeed]

This series is going 7 and the Bucks have a chance if the Heat tighten up. Bucks should win tonight. By the way, does anyone else hate the phrase "the series doesnt start til someone wins on the road"? Pau said it after the game. So if the Spurs win all their home games and thus the series, did the series never start? It's such a stupid thing to say.

He was obviously saying that the series should be moved to the streets, where true ballers play.

My boy John Henson giving quality minutes

 

[KingSpeed]

My boy John Henson giving quality minutes

Yes he is.

"Why didn't we sign Chris Anderson?"- fans of the other 29 teams

 

[KingSpeed]

Damn. I have faith the Bucks will make the appropriate adjustments for Game 2.

 

[KingSpeed]

So far, LeBron 23/10/8 with only 9 FGA. By comparison, Jennings had 23 pts on 18 FGA.

Unbelievable. Can we make a push for LeBron in 2014?

 

[illmatic99]

JJ Redick is losing a mil on his new contract every minute he plays.

 

[KingSpeed]

Reddick is garbage, by the way. I have zero interest in him being a Blazer.

 

[KingSpeed]

JJ Redick is losing a mil on his new contract every minute he plays.

Yep

 

[illmatic99]

Damian Lillard ‏@Dame_Lillard

Lebron just went 9/11 and had 27 smh

 

[illmatic99]

Meyers Leonard ‏@MeyersLeonard11

“@Dame_Lillard: Lebron just went 9/11 and had 27 smh” hands down best in the game. Crazy how he dominates the game in every way.

 

[KingSpeed]

Okc fans are booing the calls harden gets that they cheered for last year.
