The 2024 NBA playoffs thread

[Suns_fan69]

I'm probably stating the obvious here, but watching some of these games, it's apparent how much Phoenix misses having a lockdown perimeter defender that can also make 3s and not be a liability on offense. KCP, McDaniels, NAW, Derrick Jones Jr, Dort, Derrick White, etc...

Instead we got... Josh Okogie. Yeesh.

Man, Turner would have been a great fit with this team. I personally balked at the long rumored Ayton for Turner trade, too bad Ayton turned out to be such a head case.

Ditto. Guilty.

I’ve been told that Okogies embarrassing offense is not a problem.

It's not like we knew this was going to happen, like he was just an absolute zero during the 23 playoffs...oh wait.

I guess JO proves that some people just have it and some don't. Like Steph is gifted, and JO is not gifted beyond that arc no matter.

Who’d have thought Knicks Sixers would be this wildly entertaining and the best series of the playoffs so far?

 

[Cheesebeef]

These games are ridiculous!

Incredible. It's great to watch two teams so mentally tough and competing so hard.

Knicks v Pacers

They had classic series back in the day. Should be fun to watch.

If this ends in just a fine... that would be pathetic.

And Hart, DiVincinzo, etc. to add to the list.
For min. players, we missed out on Oubre, Derrick Jones in the summer but chose KBD and Yuta instead, and believed Goodwin would replace Payne. In contrast, retaining JO for min was not the wrong move, but not playing him more was. If we could defend a little bit, we'd not be swept without resistence. In the end, we constructed a team with not much of reliable offense and no defence at all. That's the embarassment.

Biggest scum bag in the league, it sickens me that this clown show loser is probably going to make more as a TV guy in a few years than he did as a player, entirely because he is a clown show loser. Dude acts tough but dishes out nothing but cheap shots and tantrums.

This guy needs a good beat-down.

Pretty sure NBA rules don't require reporters to subscribe to whoever they are interviewing's podcast.

Between that and throwing the ball twice? Bev needs to get a massive suspension. Incident after incident. League needs to show some Wilsons.

He should have been suspended from the NBA a long time ago.

I wish she had jammed the mic in his eye. What a pos.

Frankly, the other reporters should have stood up for her.

The Clippers have bleaker future than the Suns. At least Book is in his prime.

Signing Kawhi to another four year extension this year was franchise suicide.

Boom. The Clippers go down to the Mavericks in the playoffs, 4-2.
