That said, this will be a 5 point game at some point in the 4th because that's how the Celtics roll.

Ship Wrong Nikola back.

Mavs gotta be happy to be even right now with how bad they're shooting 3's

ninjacookies · 05-01-2024, 09:52 PM

Harden can't hit the broad side of a Gentleman's Club rn.

Deplorable.

Hope the celeb fake fans enjoyed the loss.

I also asked you a few questions in the other thread multiple times that you seemed to have ignored. So asking here:

- Does Embiid flop?
- Does Embiid cry to officials?
- As a 7 ft 280 lb Center, does Embiid play physical basketball?
- As a 7ft 280 lb Center, do you believe the 20+ times he falls are all justified?
- Do you think Embiid has ever taken a cheap shot on a player?
- Do you think Embiid is a dirty player?
- Do you enjoy watching Embiid's style of basketball?

good luck getting a response, intellectual honesty isn't his strong suit. Meanwhile...
Knicks vs. 76ers: NBA admits Tyrese Maxey's crucial 4-point play in Game 5 should have been waved off

Missing the travel doesn't shock me....players get away with travelling multiple times a game. The NBA has basically decided not to call travelling (or carrying) any more.

But getting the out-of-bounds call wrong is inexcusable. That's exactly the type of incident where the Replay Center should have stepped in and stopped play for a review.

ninjacookies · 05-01-2024, 10:42 PM

Balmer needs to concede ownership to Cuban already.

Chris P · 05-01-2024, 10:55 PM

Man green with a HUGE 4 PT PLAY to kill that momentum. Finish this off in the 4th!

He's a crybaby front running troll who disappears as soon as the Sixers get knocked out of the postseason or go on a regular season skid. Definitely the most shyte poster on here. I'd take 2 more bbases on the board and 12 more Nomads instead of him easily.

escapegoat · 05-01-2024, 11:12 PM

PG 4/13, harden 2/12, westy 2/11

terrible showing at home for the clips ugh

Two BBases!? Lets not get tooooo crazy lol

Fully agree with the first part. He's nowhere to be seen unless the Sixers have won so he can come and gloat (and ignore every other aspect of things).
The second, could you imagine even ONE more Nomad?? There'd be no room for anyone else to post!!

Mavs starters sans Luka looked like they had a tough game based on the box score. Entire Clippers roster also seems to have lol

ninjabum87 · 05-02-2024, 01:57 AM

Imagine a Nesmith Nomad, a Fultz Nomad, a Dick Nomad, a Dort Nomad, a Sexton Nomad, etc, etc. That's a lot of valuable exposition.

KhalDrogo · 05-02-2024, 06:03 AM

Here’s for the crowd who thinks teams give any effort to play defense in the regular season.

Round Mound · 05-02-2024, 06:12 AM

I have to point out the obvious:

- in a 4 to 7-game series, coaching staff and players adapt, they have the same matchups over and over again, and offense never wins in that case
- referees let the game get more physical in the playoffs (so a lot less easy baskets and less FT attempted)

(and Wemby had a hell of a rookie season)

JustinVerlander07 · 05-02-2024, 09:43 AM

That also ignores pace of play.

You don't like the NBA khal, so just don't watch and don't post, be insufferable elsewhere. We ALL believe in you.

It would be good for the hobby, as long as they did themselves. A forum by nature has room for everyone to post.

I literally won't even be thinking about Nesmith and then someone randomly mentions him and I have to dive in. I do hope this upcoming game will be immense legacy building material. Actually worried though, the old Bucks were running through Hali at will.

Also level of competition.

Maybe the argument is how much better the defense is compared to the regular season. Still, defensive ratings have improved by less than 4 points, it's not that big of an improvement.

I was under the impression that he just had spotty internet?

Oh tru. Maybe the ISP networks where he lives are managed by Boston fans and they just take it down after Philly losses so we don't get to see Philly fans posting "Great game, opponents! You played very well and we look forward to the next time we play" in order to just make them appear fairweather. Quite a dastardly scheme, that would be.

Goodnight, sweet Milwaukee.

Now hit that 219.5 over and I'll forgive Dame for his presence.
