2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Nobody saw the Warriors getting past the nuggets in last years playoffs

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Everyone got all kinds of opinions and characterizations

it's all fun until people act as if what they say is fact

 

[rook]

The ending to that warriors/portland game was top 3 of the season

Everyone splashing 3's lmao

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

Please explain how they have a much better chance. What have you seen from their previous match ups in the regular season to make that assumption? OKC only played a healthy Memphis team ONE time the entire season.

Because Memphis' offense is abysmal.

Whatever live in denial if you want to but the Grizz are getting swept either by OKC or SAS.

All this talk won't mean a thing if the Warriors end up losing that 6th spot .

They very well could lose these last two games as well and either Mavs or Grizz can move into 6th. Then, we may get a chance to see Griffin vs Zbo in the 1st round.

Ok @malikdagoat. You sound just like the dude that bet me the Grizz would miss the playoffs this year. I'll be hitting him up in the next few days BTW

 

[tyonenine]

Y'all act like the suns are actually going to make some noise

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

How the hell is it possible for the Pistons to not renew Joe D's contract as GM but keep him on board as executive advisor

Makes no damn sense! That man deserves to be fired! The fans of Detroit should demand blood.

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Warriors are 12-1 after a Loss. Yea they aren't losing tomorrow but keep dreaming

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Charlie V and Gordon one summer. Jennings and Josh Smith in another.

You can't make this stuff up.

The Grizz are tied for worse division record in the league. they're not going nowhere in the playoffs..if they make it.

that was until Iggy allegedly became a mole for Mark Jackson and the Warriors

Born Ready 5 triple doubles.

McLemore with a good showing.

Sounds like excuses to me

You want to take a guess for how many games the team has been healthy this season?

Not having your best player for almost half of the year will do that. And despite them having one of the worst division records in the league (in the toughest division in the league), they are still in the playoffs. The way you're talking, you would think the team was healthy all year long.

 

[dman14]

a healthy grizz team is a 50-55 win team and a 5 seed
decimated with injuries and having to incorporate a new coach
will they beat the spurs/okc, prob not, but most teams probably wont either

 

[do work son]

will they beat the spurs/okc, prob not, but most teams probably wont either

this.

i love how on here, saying __________ won't beat the spurs or OKC equates to them being a bad team. there's a reason the spurs and OKC are the top 2 teams in the west

They still have 48 wins and counting. Acting as division record is extra crucial

 

[nelson999]

Looks like the Heat are going to get crazy lucky and not have to play the Nets or Bulls in the playoffs

 

[nelson999]

Cousins is great

So great

 

35pts 15reb 6ast 3blk 

Last 5 games avg (Mavs,Thunder,Blazers,Clippers,T-Wolves): 29.8ppg 12.6rpg 3apg 1.8blk 2.2stl

they would have around 54 wins if marc was healthy all season

going to be a tough 8th seed

Dwayne Casey should be a lock for COY. Hornacek has done one hell of a job as well.

I wonder how much more expensive Bobcats playoff tickets will be than the regular season ones? Definitely planning on going to at least one game. I've never been to a playoff game before.

I still have beef with him because of the Duncan blunder in last year's Finals, but I'd give COY to Pop.

And @bhzmafia14 is right, I remember when Memphis was a very trendy pick to represent the WC. They were definitely getting hit with the dark horse label at one point.

Atlanta Hawks is a terrible comparison.

Grizz won't get swept as long as Mark and Zbo are going to grind it out in the paint.
