Raps v Bos was an incredible game. Legit edge of my seat stuff.

same. ridiculous.

Quote
Never have I liked Lowry so much.

again same. can def appreciate his hustle/relentlessness/incredibly slick defense.

dudes lays it all out there, every game.



LEBLOCK strikes again.

NASTY.

Never has it been more evident of how much of a superior being LeBron is. Even at his age. His ability to wait for the block and get up so high so quick is insane.

Watching that game yesterday reminded me so much of why I love basketball.

ya man he just does the next level stuff.

his team doesn't impress me much.. they seem so "disjointed". when LEBRON is on the court though, hard to count them out of anything but title contention.

also same.. absolutely loving these playoffs, like usual.

If the Lakers can bring the intensity on D like they played yesterday then they can go all the way. Can't imagine they can keep that up though.

Also shits me to tears how little they use AD in the post against Tucker or any of the other Hou defenders. They guy has like a 27" height advantage.

we can't also forget that Rondo was hitting 3's.. that's not going to happen every night.

take Rondo out of that game 3 scenario (just defense/assists, no significant offense), HOU might win that game.

expecting a close game tonight.

seems to me lebron is carrying this team every bit as much as he carried cleveland 15 years ago. AD is a better player than any teammate he had back then but if i just feel like if it were AD's team they'd already have been knocked out, or maybe not even made the bubble. he's just missing something that lebron and very few other players have. that ability to just decide to take over, and then do it, on both O and D. who else in the NBA has that gear right now? maybe kawhi?

100% agree.

this team is pretty bad.. AD is legit, but without LEBRON he probably wouldn't get them to the playoffs.

meanwhile, LEBRON prior to getting hurt last year, had an even worse team in the playoff race.

compared to the clippers.. this Lakers team is awful. but if they end up matching up, as long as LEBRON is in it, it'll be a series.

kawhi and lebron definitely.

when durant is back, i'd add him into that mix.

btw.. harlan/reggie best announcers.. stan van gundy is easily the worst announcer. :uhcomeon:

lol @ rondo's lob in the last minute.

also yeah SVG is a terrible announcer. why they have to have him AND his brother i do not understand. i know that's a hard job but surely they could find someone better.

also i like webber but agreed that reggie jackson is the best color guy going right now. and of course harlan is a legend.

really cool article on lowry and the fact that 98.75% of what happens in an NBA game is something other than the ball going through the net. truehoop is the only newsletter i subscribe to and actually read: https://www.truehoop.com/p/125-percent-of-basketball-is-scoring.

yea i don't like either of them. i can tolerate jeff .. but stan really sucks.

i'm a stan fan tho, former heat coach. i like the guy. just needs to stay away from the announcer game.

ya webber is solid too.

harlan/reggie/webber/mark jackson are solid. probably forgetting a few others but harlan/reggie are my favorite combo.
