Series Thread: 2nd Round: 1) Cavs vs 4) Pacers

[Shanemansj13]

All he did is choke a guy out and stomp on another so not too bad

That’s elementary shit

Now is different, the NBA learned from making one guy their entire status/centerpoint (which at that time was MJ, who ended up being drug/alcohol laced and a chronic gambler in terrible debt which likely got his father killed). They elevated the man to a demigod. If he missed 3 buzzer beater opportunities, his 1 buzzer beater was focused on to the point that the public thought that every buzzer beater went in.

Someone get this guy in the ring with @MAGA2024

He has me blocked

There is a thread started by @msgkings322 that you probably can’t see because you have him blocked. Thread title is something about Silver and comparing SGA to MJ.

A guy on there is extreme MJ lover that I think you would really enjoy going at.

You should check it out.

Eh, MJ fanatics are rarely compelling to debate. Most are overly emotional and just attack anyone who dares even question their choice as all-powerful GOAT. We mostly can't even have a discussion from a neutral footing. Personally I'm fine with just saying who the best player of an era was, but if I'm going to delve into the depths and try to compare all players... ugh.

Wasn't surprised at all that the Cavs came back strong last night.

Just doing what was requested

I would rather have a guy stomped on then pushed while in the air going for a dunk by a 40 year old goon with no talent who just came in the game to make a dirty play.

Draymond has his issues- but at least you can show some respect for him as a player- Johnson is nothing but a washed up scumbag who hasnt played in months- comes in, fouls and acts like an asshole.

I will be the first to admit I was skeptical of the STrus signing- but I gotta say- he is an absolute steal at his salary. Tough, a leader, good defender, good shooter, young. One of the best role players in the NBA.

Just realized I said it wrong. It’s nuggets and pacers

Hopefully you entered the bet wrong for your sake?

No idea why so many had so much angst with him....usually those who insisted Hunter had to start.

Guy is a hell of a player. Can rebound and pass, too.

 

[dtgold88]

Horrible sign for the Cavs that the Pacers already tied it

admittedly was thinking the same at the time.....Serious props to them for hitting back quickly in 2nd qtr, pushing the lead back up and really never letting it get that close again.

Though, sure, got a little nervous when they got it down to 11 with 8 left.

Still gotta get game 4....but Indiana definitely not as good when opponents have their players.

 

[dtgold88]

7 Oreb from Allen and Mobley

5 total rebounds from Siakam and Turner

Just unreal have heard many still use the soft label on the Cavs. Have they been in past? Maybe. But in the playoffs they have been really good to great on boards in most games, especially offensive glass....dominant inside as well.

Seems like any time Turner or Siakam has the ball in paint with allen or Mobley on them they don't even try to get a shot up.

 

[dtgold88]

Good for the Cavs I guess....but hope he can get it together.

Hearing guys at half saying he cannot play in a series like this one and not so sure about that. Guy just missing shots he has made all year. I suspect he gets his regular turn next game but if he does not have it they maybe give Okoro a shot or just play others more.

 

[dtgold88]

Garland looked hobbled a lot of the game. I thought Mobley played really well - esp. on the glass.

Ty Jerome looks lost.....he is losing himself some big time dollars right now. He was such a weapon. He looks tight right now. Could really use him with Garland struggling

really does look tight.....can kind of tell with all those floaters coming up short.

This could be must see TV.

He passed on the idea. They both go to ridiculous extremes with so much assurance I had really hoped to see the face off

Yeah I noticed.....can you make it more appealing with a PPV offer?
