Game Thread: Play-In games

Yeah, you keep thinking that old timer.

I'm 50.

You're like 55 and CL is like 64 or 65.

Hey, no age discrimination around here

Nah. Nets were exposed. They have the star power but they have nothing off the bench.

True, but I think Durant and Irving are enough to get by Boston. 5 games was purposely over the top.

Yeah.

If they are this tired after 1 game, I'm worried about their stamina for an entire series against Boston.

Drummond won't be much help.

So, unless they plan on playing Blake, that 9 man rotation will be down to 8.

Damn. Poor guy is so old, he can't even remember how old he is.

Father time ambushed your ass and kicked it harder than Oden.

Yep. Visibly tired down the stretch there. Too bad Williams out for Boston

Ben Simmons likely back by game 3 for 15-20 minutes

I'm kinda confused as to why Brooklyn cut Johnson.

Blake is cooked.

At least Johnson can help tread water for a minute or two of clock time while Durant takes a break.

Ah.

I legit forgot about Ben.

Answers my Johnson question as well.

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

Just gonna let you know. I'm going pure homer here mother fuckers.

 

[bksballer89]

42 minutes is too much though. Cut that down by 3-4 and give Goran and Patty a longer run

37-38 is ideal IMO. 6-7 minutes of rest in the first half and 4-5 in the 2nd. Just have to stagger them so one is always on the court IMO

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Ah.

Answers my Johnson question as well.

He's easy to forget about when he takes three months to get in shape when he had almost a year to do so.

I already am not a KD/Irving fan but I can't root for Ben Simmons. At least it gives us a villain

Good luck against the 2017 Pistons.

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

My god, the bull shit calls against towns starts early.

 

[Mecca]

I'm obviously rooting for the Clippers.

But, Towns has to play bigger.

You can't shoot a air ball with Jackson on you.

 

[thunderc]

So, who will have the better revenge game?

Pat Bev or Robert Covington?

Let's go, Clippers!!

Well I’m not rooting for any injuries, not serious anyway. All I got.

 

[Mecca]

My god, the bull shit calls against towns starts early.

Perhaps he should pretend he is facing the other team from LA?

He needs to be more aggressive.

So, not Pat Bev?

Got it!!!
