    you can see why he struggled as a coach early on. I think he learned that in OKC in 2011, game 4, when someone on the OKC bench area spilled ice on the court to try to distract dirk on the line and buy more time for OKC. that was dirk's best game of his career. I think the time that Kidd...

    I think it will be Edmonton/Dallas. And Florida/NYR. Colorado might force 7 and that is scary with the fire power that they have.

    The game was over by then was it not? Doncic was tied for game high in rebounds and consistently out rebounds OKC’s best rebounder. And it should be pointed out Doncic’s last play to help end that game was a block on SGA. Kidd also brought Washington and Jones Jr. out the next possession for mop...

    For sure. Dallas has never made it to a Stanley cup final without beating Colorado in a game 7. So I’m hanging on to that. It’s all I got. Hopefully they win game 6 though

    Idk. Dallas has been on a role for a long time if you go back to them winning 16 out of 18 down the stretch of the season. Mavs could have won the last game and should have won tonight’s game by more than they did if Irving played with more aggression. The mavs defense gave OKC a lot of problems...

    That’s a good point. His creativity, particularly with passing the ball is better than any big man I’ve seen. I think Hakeem is a better player overall and is one of the most overlooked players because of the MJ era. Hakeem definitely shouldered the rockets in 94. He got drexler the next year...

    This series will come down to the mavs role players making open shots. Doncic and Irving need to score more, especially when defended one on one. But OKC are basically letting mavs other players take a lot of open shots and running intermittent traps at doncic and Irving. OKC haven’t come off...

    He looked a lot better tonight than he did in prior games. He had it going both scoring and passing. He also had a big block on SGA to seal the game at that end. He injured his knee at some point in the clippers series but I don’t think it was anything that would have kept him out more than a...

    Good way to point it out. They are very different. I think Duncan, shaq, and Hakeem were all deadly in the low post. Hakeem was a better shooter. He was as good or better of a defender than all of them.

    Hakeem could make 3’s. He was an incredible shooter. He rarely stepped out there though. His fade away was incredible.

    I don’t think gobert is worthy of being a four time defensive player of the year. When it’s all said and done joker may be the best. But for now Hakeem is the best foreign player of all time IMO. And it hurts me to say that because I think dirk was a great scorer, particularly in the clutch...

    And Colorado wins 5-3. Dallas sloppy in that third period.

    Colorado looked deflated in that last game. They were still playing hard, but didn’t look right.

    I thought Vancouver played well all year and kind of dipped at the tail end of the season. But they have brought it in the playoffs. I don’t have a good read on the Vancouver/edmonton series. I think the oilers get some favoritism from the media. Colorado as well have the same vibe going. But...
