OFFICIAL 2020 NBA PLAYOFF THREAD - DISNEY COVID INVITATIONAL EDITION - MAMBA FOREVER - LAKERS WIN THE RONA RAND - ALA FOREVER

[Quincy McCall]

I say Rockets in 6 with some jest, but I don't see how anyone can envision Javele/AD/Kuz playing on the perimeter and getting isolated on switches and see this as a layup for the Lakers. Rockets are going to push the pace and the Lakers defense, besides dumping the ball down low, is going to be their only check on that

 

[addict4sneakers]

Good luck Nash

 

[100027]

That’s wild.

 

[reformeDWS]

Wait.. y'all trusting Harden again? After everything he's shown us?
Couldn't be me.

With as poorly as harden played last night, he still put up 30/6/8 for the series.

 

[freeze]

WHAT

wait....hold on....

this is a lot to unpack.

 

[lovehateself]

when did Pop change his name to Steve nash ?

 

[Coupé It]

WHAT

what in the hell, Pop?

 

[antidope]

Never coached before... Go coach a championship roster. OK!

 

[atlsfinest]

WHAT

this is the type of stuff that pisses black coaches off. Black coaches have to wait longer to get head coaching jobs and they get fired sooner. Guys like Steve Nash who have never coached at any level immediately get head coaching jobs. White coaches with sub .400 records like Luke Walton immediately get coaching jobs after getting fired. How often does this happen with black coaches? How was Steve Nash more qualified than Nate McMillan?

 

[pmatic]

Dude jumped the line of coaches.

NBA players would be side-eyeing teams again if Nash wasn't one of them...

 

[DCAllAfrican]

WHAT

The hell?

 

[Coupé It]

This smells like a Kyrie & KD decision.

and not just head coaching jobs, but head coaching jobs with REALLLLLLLLLLLLY ******* goo players that will inflate their actual ability to coach. So they'll look really ******* good even if theyre mediocre af.

 

[Tony $now]

Steve Nash!?!?!? I may be out of the loop but I didn’t know he was coaching anywhere

 

[Quincy McCall]

Nah. Look at Toronto. Look at Boston. Bucks backup big is Marvin Williams.

Really? Boston and Tor has a better cast and Marvin Williams is the litter of the league. I guess

 

[D StaXX]

It’s absolutely possible too - Dallas can absolutely get it done. Plus you know Giannis loves playing with his European dudes more. He’s barely friends with any American NBA players.

Imagine a EURO NBA Superteam - alotttt of people would be in their feelings about it. All this Giannis to the Warriors talk, nah, I don’t see that at all.

Lord if that happens.. match made in heaven.
Just imagine all the space he would have to work with.
He wouldn't get killed in the media or by the fans either. Easy decision.

WHAT

 

[CJMcfly26]

Nets is Kyrie team now.

It HAS happened two other times with two of the all-time great Point Guards.

They both were black .

 

[Sharpshoeter13]

Knicks south in shambles

[lamekilla]

Nash coaching Brooklyn is about as crazy as Pop coaching Philly....

[Coupé It]

Yea this was obviously a KD decision. This is all him.

 

[picasso swerve]

How would Dallas get Giannis?
