The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

Joe Mazulla looks like a meercat.

White with the game saving put back, but also the bucket saving stick your head in there to get rocked and get a questionable foul on Jimmy a few min before :rofl:
 
Difference is Lakers best defenders who could excecute the scheme couldn't score.

Boston's guys are all semi decent to good offensive players.

They have a better chance of pulling it off.
That's true, they had to rely on Reaves, Hachimura and Lonnie Walker to bail em out offensively :lol

Would be interesting to see how Boston would approach Denver. They gotta zone it at times to prevent Denver cutting to the lane. Every team has had issues switching on Denver, might as well let Jokic try to beat you top of the key and prevent him from making those entry passes and find the cutter. It's not like Denver gonna beat em on the baseline either, maybe Gordon but just stick Rob on whatever side he on.

I'm not gonna even entertain Miami's defense. Jokic and Murray gonna cook anything they throw at them :lol
 
I don't think they'd drop on any screen not involving Jokic.
Drop is a big reason why they needed 13 games to get past Atlanta & Philly :lol:

Their defense has been getting killed & Denver presents similar problems & are more talented.

With Murray & Jokic you can’t drop, switch, or hedge/show/trap. There’s no answer for it.
 
Wow

I don't why Bam was just standing there boxing out, run to the rim. No need to box out with that little time, just get to the rim and tip the ball.
Y'all must've never played sports :lol

Fatigue towards the end of a game is real. Your mind wants to do something but your body ain't registering :lol
 
Also, Horford is going to escape a lot of criticism for that stupid *** foul

Happy Memorial Day big guy
He has been poor defending the perimeter, which is why Joe hasn’t asked him to do it as often as last year :lol:
