Series Thread: 3) Philadelphia Sixers vs 6) Brooklyn Nets

[bksballer89]

This is poor coaching from the Nets coach.

Your team was down 1 at the break.

You wait until they fall behind by 20 in less than 5 minutes to call a timeout?

This is a young bunch with very little playoffs experience. Once Philly went up double digits a timeout should have been called to settle them down

Had to google that.....

I know Eli doesn't always bring it, but it was also a blumhouse, which I also know doesn't always bring it, but I hoped for more. I have HBO until the thrones is over, figured, i'd scroll through what i haven't seen.

 

[MizzouFalcon]

Outscored 21-2 in 4 minutes. That can’t be ideal.

 

[Four4Four]

Damn Sixers only have 2 3's. What is this, 1989?

 

[msgkings322]

Man, if the Nets could get a star to go with rising young players Lavert, DLo, Allen, Harris and Dinwiddie they would be very interesting team. They have a little of everything and an exciting team

Kyrie. Maybe KD.

 

[bksballer89]

Nets gotta try and get this to 10 by end of quarter

 

[bksballer89]

One thing about this team is they have lots of fight in them. They don't quit easily.

Just ask the Kings

Did you post a review in the Horror section?

Keep putting Boban in the P&R

I can't wait to be in Barclays on Thursday.

This series has been fun.

Not boring by any stretch. Two entertaining teams

Did you post a review in the Horror section?

nah, it's been a bit. probably have seen a few, but would always like to start off with a positive. though it's so easy to be dismissive of a massive amount, which i do catch a lot of the c-level, if it were B, i'd be more than happy to point out what makes them worthy watching, if that's what you're into. i'll look into a review(s) later tonight depending on how i'm going.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Harris with 4 points.

I'm sure that's all Jimmy Butler's fault.

Right @WiggyRuss

lol what is this your pre-emptive move?

what did i say?

what did I FUCKING SAY!

the games that Jimmy Butler is least involved the better the Sixers will be

Butler 5 points

Sixers up 15

SAY MY FUCKING NAME!!!!

 

[WiggyRuss]

jimmy butler 5 points...Sixers up 15

Reddick, Simmons, Embiid, Marjonovic, all have double digist shots..

butler with 8 shots

the balls moving, guys are playing like a team- its not 1-5 garbage basketball.

everyones involved, the balls moving

He still shooting though so your point isn't relevant lol.

He attempted 9 shots. Will likely get to his season avg with Philly which was 13.5 or so.

He obviously doesn't need to be as aggressive because Simmons and Redick showed up tonight.

When those 2 don't show up then he and Embiid must be extremely aggressive.

 

[DJ]

Fuck the Nets, I took them and the 7.5 points.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Sixers would rather have Jimmy Butler go for 50 then have a night where multiple guys get off and the ball moves and the Sixers pass the ball and play like a team instead of watch jimmy butler heave 22 shots and have 0 assists.

its just common sense basketball.

You're like a broken record.....if Butler didn't go HAM in game 1......they would have lost by 25-30.

It's Butler fault that Simmons played like a scared bitch in game 1?

Sixers are obviously a better team when Ben is assertive

LOL he has 5 assists and up till a minute ago he was 5th on the team in shots isntead of being #1 shots and having 0 assists

its common sense

nets would love it if jimmy butler heaves 22 shots a game and doesnt pass teh ball

 

[bksballer89]

Mike Scott was 1-8 in game 1.

Tonight in double digits on 5 shots but yeah game 1 was all Jimmy's fault lol.

Pretty simple what's happening tonight. They're making shots and in Simmons case he is more aggressive.

As I said yesterday, this isn't a Jimmy Butler issue and never was.

It is a make or miss league. Tonight they're making these shots and Simmons is more aggressive
