2021-2022 NBA Season

[dtgold88]

Fly, Pelicans......fly.

They really are trying to win.

Beauty of the playin, it doesn't affect your draft slot if you get in as the 10th seed.

Last week of the Season could have repercussions for every seed, sans the Suns....

Pretty sure it does affect it. If you get into the playoffs - even as 9 or 10 seed - you don't get a lottery pick...if that's what you meant.

 

[dtgold88]

Cavs fans need to brace themselves.They will play Brooklyn for 7th and likely lose

I'm braced for that...would come down to having to beat Charlotte or Atlanta at home.

 

[dtgold88]

Cavs final 9 vs Chicago final 9. Who avoids the 7th seed?

Cleveland: VS CHICAGO, VS ORLANDO, VS DALLAS, AT ATLANTA, AT NYK, V PHI, AT ORLANDO, AT BROOKLYN, VS MILWAUKEE

Chicago: AT CLEVELAND, AT NYK, AT WSH, VS LAC, VS MIA, VS MIL, VS BOS, VS CHA, AT MIN

Assuming no Allen I think the Bulls.....unless maybe the Bucks don;t need the last game?

Lmao, Stephen A just said the reason the Nets want Philly in the first round has nothing to do with basketball. I suspect he is right, they want to grind Harden in the ground.

 

[dtgold88]

I did make the joke that set it off.

"Some men just want to watch the world burn". lol

you know you can just ban me if it comes to it

I wonder if the Sixers will try to guard Kyrie with Harden

If they do...Kobe's 81 point game could get challenged. lol

He has really taken the next step with his playmaking.

That's why they kept rolling when Chris took his Seasonal injury sabbatical.

Bonafide Star.

Love Bridges too.

I still don't get why the 6ers let you have him.

No guarantees.
The Suns took Ayton over Doncic. Now Ayton is Very Good, but Doncic is great.

 

[Scooby-Doo]

I can't see anyone beating the Suns if CP3 comes back and everyone is healthy for the playoffs.

I thought the same thing last year and Giannis said... Stop right there!

I will proceed with caution, but they do seem like a team on a mission.

Giannis is Giannis but the Suns are a year older and battle tested and hungry. Obviously nothing is certain but the best teams (1 or 2 seeds) almost always win and the Suns are clearly the least flawed team.

And you can tell they’re in Harden’s head.

Ready for the Madness to start.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yup.

I know I want to see it.

I remember blowing off dinner with friends the night of Kobe's last game because they didn't want to go to Dave and Busters.

They wanted to go to a steakhouse with no TV.

In light of what happened, I'm glad I got to see that last great outing in real-time.

If you are able to be there in person, all the better.

This is why you (and the wife) rock.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Ready for the Madness to start.

I’m going light tonight. One play:
Purdue ML and Miami ML
Not messing with point spreads. I feel really confident both win their games. Good luck on your plays.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Young teams rarely make it all the way through this early in their development. Ja being dinged doesn't help matters. It's one thing to go 14-2 or whatever without him in the regular season, but the postseason won't be quite so smooth...

Yeah, I bet those 14 wins were against scrub teams most likely.

You snooze......you lose.

Yet if CP gets hurt (and he's old AF so it is possible) they are fucked.....like when he played for the Rockets vs.....some team.....in the WCF.

Really? Sure injuries are always a factor. They're fucked if they lose Booker too. They're the favorite going in, obviously.

You dropping $500 on that?

James Wiseman ruled out for the rest of the season to rehab his knee.....

No shock there.
