OFFICIAL 2021 NBA PLAYOFF THREAD - YAWNIST WITH THE CLOSEOUT 50 PIECE - BUCKS WITH FIRST CHIP SINCE ‘73 - CP0 LOSES AGAIN

[osh kosh bosh]

Also Ty Lue is a poor defensive coach who relies on offense to get out jams.

45 possessions in 6 games. Thus the exact trickery I’m talking about

Quinn Snyder needs to be fired. A blind man could see Gobert should’ve been pulled last night against the lineup the Clippers were running. He didn’t have the foot speed to rotate to open shooters, wasn’t protecting the rim, and was worthless on offense in the 2nd half.

He will be. And they'll replace him with Stotts, who ain't any better lol.

Utah is fk'd

Zero chance Quin is gone with his equity, not everyone gets fired after a series loss lol

Everywhere Coach Rondo goes, the team's guards automatically step up their game for the playoffs.

See: KCP, Caruso, Jackson, Beverley, Eddie House, Nate Robinson.

*Honorable mention, Atlanta - Rondo was only there for a few months but look how far the Hawks have gone. Again, COACH Rondo.

Rondo's locker room presence, basketball mind, and influence cannot be denied nor underestimated.

Asking for clipper fans ..

He's had multiple series losses in the 2nd and 1st round of the playoffs every year since Kobe retired.

Quinn Snyder SHOULD BE let go.

No excuse for the way he was badly outcoached and outclassed the last 2 games of this series. No excuses when you up 2-0 as the #1 SEED with home court and Kawhi out for the series.

And Utah supposed to be a top defensive team? Nah bro, Snyder led his team to what's called an epic meltdown. His team basically got swept by the Clips if you really think about it

No wonder he cant shoot, dudes missing a thumb.

Rudy botched a few of those, especially when he was matched up with a non Mann player like Batum or something,

but Clarkson, Donovan, Bojan, all are just POS at the point of attack. They almost are both equally at fault when rewatching the 2nd half IMO

the few times that rudy stayed attached with the shooter on the perimeter, it turned into a layup line for the guards. those guys couldn't stay in front of reggie or PG.
rudy not quick enough to defend the paint and get out
lue really found a death lineup
81 second half pts

Zu to start, Batum if Zu gets cooked would be my guess

Batum, or if Book/CP3 don't kill him in P&R, Zubac.

Bet Ty still goes back to starting Zu game 1 against the Suns. It won’t last long though

 

[dathbgboy]

I have the strangest feeling that Brooklyn is going to lose tonight. I had this same feeling in 2016 with the election and I was right

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

A+

 

[pmatic]

Bucks prevail tonight.

Ty Lue always spots the other like two games before playing the right lineups

 

[rolaholic]

Worst +/- rating on the floor, -34, for the supposed 'DPOY'...

Be wrong less often and you wouldn't hear from "contrarians".

 

[Blue Mamba]

Watching a player go on a scoring tear and the crowd getting louder with each bucket is one of the best things to watch

This really isn't some hot take like people in here are going to make it out to be. Lue not playing Mann more minutes from the jump and having the wrong rotations/lineups were absolutely major factors in the Clips losing those first two games, despite Utah missing Conley.

Credit for being better late than never though unlike some others.
