Do you care to wager?

You putting $150 on it? 👀👀

:lol just let us make it there first and we can potentially talk. I have not said whether or not we going to win, but I do think the series is going to be tougher than most may let on. Would not be shocked to see it go 7 games given how much trouble Memphis has given Golden State. I think based on how Minnesota is a bad matchup for us, we are a bad matchup for Golden State (i.e. size advantage, more athleticism, high turnover prone squad, making Steph guard Ja/Bane/Dillon). Still deciding on whether or not we actually will win because of Jaren.

Losing next round most likely meant Jaren did not get any better from the Minnesota series. That's the determining factor in beating GSW. We need Jaren to be at least the version of himself during the regular season where he can stay on the floor for 28+ minutes.

The company emails from Rich said Ben would be back HOWEVER issues happened and the comeback was postponed.

WHOMEVER IS RUNNING the BROOKLYN OFFICE SHOULD'VE LET ME KNOW.

ALSO the blog boys LIED to me and told me that JOKIC was legitimate. Trae is making me reconsider his KLUTCH KREDENTIALS.

Oh 100% no team in the league is just walking through Memphis

But moral victories is for minor league coaches
 
Man, IN MINNESOTA tonight, who you all got? 👀😬🔥

I really can't call it. There's already been 2 games where Minnesota had Memphis but didn't seal the deal in the 4th.

Ja vs. C U L T U R E.

I really don't know. 😬😬😬 I want Minnesota for the chaos, but I think Memphis wraps it up tonight.

Right now -- I'm stuck between believing this team will legitimately make a Finals run and just being too young to make a deep run this season.

Our lack of experience is showing and also a lot of our guys are not use to feeling their bodies breaking down late in the year (mainly Ja). Bane/BC stepping up is just what we needed and it looks like Ja is learning to play through some of his pain, while also healing up. But, we need Jaren to wake up. A lot of the issues we are running into is a direct impact of him not being able to stay on the court.

I think Ja found something in the 4th quarter and its going to show tonight. Minnesota is saying all the right things now, so I'm expecting a fight with Memphis winning.
 
Theoretically Ayton & Javale are ideal matchups for Luka if you’re Dallas. He’s a drop coverage master.

But the Jazz had Gobert & 3 traffic cones on the court at all times & Dallas didn’t look good offensively in any of the last 3 games :lol: Even in G5 it was their defense.

So, an intriguing matchup. Get Book on the switch, call up Ayton and you get whatever shot you want all game long. But Dallas is out of sync right now.
Yeah luka threw them off a bit however they found happy mediums in plenty of flashes

It was frustrating as hell watching luka play hero ball and just let brunson stand around

hopefully the coaches do their jobs and try to smooth things out in the half court
 
For anyone who's saying Grizz will beat GS, could you provide an objective reason? I'm sensing a lot of subjective rhetoric rn.

As much as we all love Ja, he has a lot of "holes" in his game. And I think the Warriors will expose a lot of it in the series. Bane may not be the same player in the 2nd round either. I suspect Brooks will play a bigger role, especially being the primary guy on Curry.

Last time they played, pregame interviews, brooks said he loves playing the warriors and guarding curry. Said he knows his game and he's ready for him.

That night, wardell fed him 42, Dugg. Made the airplane noises and everything.
