Trap game.

Be careful.

Oh no doubt, the Thunder play better against the good teams

I am PAINFULLY aware.

Let’s go Thunder!

 

[Gman]

Georges Niang is just unplayable in the playoffs.

That guy is terrible.

It's a pretty big flaw in the roster if Niang does see any meaningful minutes in the playoffs.

Ha! When Cavs love and Buckeye love form a Voltron of hate.

I'm stealing "Voltron of hate"

Good band name too

 

[Gman]

I think we can make boston sweat a little

I think so too.

I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Miami take Boston to 6 games in R1.

 

[thunderc]

Arkansas Williams with his 43rd drawn charge.

He’s exactly the kind of guy that’s been hunted on every Sixers playoff team I’ve seen. Seth Curry, Marco Belinelli, JJ Redick, Niang is poor defensively and not the shooter that those guys are. He’s playing against a team’s second group. When you have a target like that you give them a piece they can score a high percentage against and gain confidence.

Thank you. You just immediately tell someone you’re a child of the 80s.

I concur.

Guys like Niang are why the C's always beat the '6ers... in the NBA of now, you can't have weak link wings on the floor that don't play D.

And that’s a good thing

So does my face

Kevin Love just set an nba record for most drawn charges in a single game

How many?

 

[bksballer89]

How many?

4....i made up the nba record part lol but i never saw this happen before

 

[thunderc]

4....i made up the nba record part lol but i never saw this happen before

Not sure they track by game but I did find where Lowry drew 4 in a half one time.

 

[bksballer89]

Maybe i was right

 

[bksballer89]

Miami clinched at least a 7 seed so will have 2 chances at home to win 1 game

 

[Shanemansj13]

Maybe i was right

I think he led the league in charges last season and he was a bench player. Definitely his only strength on defense but a good one
