The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[B Sox]

I like Mazz and have defended him plenty, but as this team is constructed, I don’t think they can just afford to work through him learning on the job.

Some of the issues are things that have existed with both Brad and Ime too, but after watching the first 2 games of this series, it does feel like he’s not exactly sure who his guys are, and he seems in over his head. Especially against an elite coach like Spo.

If Boston loses the series, I wouldn’t be surprised if they made a move for Nurse.

 

[JRaW’d]

Proud of these guys man.

Knowing what peices weve come to expect a championship caliber team to have, they’re definitely not supposed to be here, yet here they are and theyre THRIVING.

Easily the best nba story in years.

This sickening Jayson Tatum shot chart really does exemplify the "Modern NBA"...where nobody got a mid range game except for like 10 players including HIMmy Butler.

JT could be really good at a middy too with his height and athleticism. He just gotta try it out.

 

[Benny Hinn]

I hope Heat win it so Jimmy and Spo can finally get their flowers

and now "poking the bear" is forever ingrained into NBA lexicon

Also “playing with your meat”

Did not see Cam in 2023/24 making the comeback but look at Killa

NewAraab jawns + Killa Cam flowing gonna take me back to the glory days of high school when tall tees ruled the land.

they need a recurring segment on the show called "U MADDD!"

because of NT, that clip lived rent free in my mind for hella long

Interesting how both of the teams who are down 0-2 in the Conf Finals have rookie head coaches.

You got a better chance of reaching the summit of Mount Everest than you do coming back from an 0-2 deficit to win the Conf Finals

 

[Blue Mamba]

Jimmy just plays the game the right way. He doesn’t hunt for foul calls and flop, he doesn’t complain to the refs, doesn’t make excuses, and has a beautiful mid range game

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Celtics so far got no answer for high energy Bam, who's averaging 21, 13, and 7.

 

[p0tat0 5alad]

Jimmy averages the most FTs in these playoffs at 10.1 (Ginnis was at 10.3) and the next closest remaining in the playoffs is Tatum at 6.9

Eye test prevails. Austin Reaves - another undrafted example.

this is why bad teams don’t stay bad forever. All it takes js one good GM/Player/Coach

 

[moe200069]

Jimmy averages the most FTs in these playoffs at 10.1 (Ginnis was at 10.3) and the next closest remaining in the playoffs is Tatum at 6.9

Jimmy puts so much pressure on the refs by forcing the issue –he plays almost exclusively near the rim and attacks the basket like he doesn't see defenders.

doesnt flop or go foul hunt.. bruh's just a bully.

I don’t often agree with Mr. Simmons, but he’s absolutely right on this.

Facts.

If you have to keep your lips sealed so you don't envoke the wrath of the opposition you're an imposter.

 

[Platinum State]

Im not a fan of either team but did not expect Boston to be down 0-2 and Miami going to the finals.
Denver's gonna have a hard time against them

My moms use to clown Reggie Miller in the 90s when he had that tore up grill. Ant Davis fixed his joints too…

People with them type of teeth be having funky breath

That’s cause they can’t effectively clean in between them jagged things
