**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[champcruthik]

Regardless of G1's result, I would strongly consider resting Jo in G2. He doesn't look right out there. Give Embiid four days of full rest leading into G3 to manage the knee pain.

Edit:
Typo, wrote G2 when I clearly meant leading into G3.

 

[8pm at msg]

D'Lo needs to work on a floater or something

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Gotta abuse Boban on the switches if you run out Dudley at the 5. Ratsull needs to watch Dinwiddie on how to attack that instead of settling

I'm so mad at Dudley being effective so far

Just took advantage on Scott too and yeah Dudley been key for them this year if anything as a mentor

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Guys who rely heavily on jumpers don't do well in the playoffs. Not saying this will be the case for D'Lo

I swear this guy ALWAYS talks out of both sides of his mouth

 

[antidope]

This is the worrisome part for D'Lo playing in the playoffs.

Guys who rely heavily on jumpers don't do well in the playoffs. Not saying this will be the case for D'Lo all series (Or all game even) but that diet is tough.

No Free Throws, no shots at the rim.

Hundred percent agree. That's the next step he has to take

 

[ill steelo]

Dinwiddie with back to back drives. I should not see a single jumper with Jared Dudley and mike Scott as the two centers on the floor every single thing at the rim for both teams

 

[swerve]

They're abusing JJ. Get him outta there.

I floated this earlier, it needs to be done

BUT

Pairing D'Lo with Spencer doesn't fully nullify D'Lo's inadequacies, but it helps a ton. He's literally is great at what D'Lo is bad at.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Since he declined, I'll take the bet. Sixers win the series, I get $200. Nets win, you get $200. Let me know.

Bet

So I wonder how many missed shots and blow bys on JJ it’s going to take for Brett Brown to understand that he’s going to have to play Zhaire Smith.........

 

[amitt5504]

Just play Zhaire

 

[P C H]

JJ Redick struggling getting clean looks and defending against long, athletic players. It must be the playoffs.

I feel attacked

 

[Bert.]

embiid got injured again?

 

[frink85]

“Planned activation” this is the year of made up phrases

 

[pmatic]

I feel attacked

Still remember Garrett Temple locking up Redick his senior year at Duke in the tourney.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I feel attacked

He played crazy defense on Harden during the playoffs though

 

[second2nonee]

This is why they got Butler and Tobias tho. Butler singlehandedly keeping them in it

 

[dennistrane]

Jimmy auditions in front of his future team

 

[champcruthik]

Bet

Deal. PayPal works?

 

[dennistrane]

Tobias hasn’t done **** since being traded here

 

[swerve]

Jimmy Buckets

 

[immaculate1]

Sixers lucky they only down by single digits, godawful d

 

[Tony $now]

Jimmy hooping

 

[HOU$TON]

Jimmy Butler only 6er that came to play
