KingintheNorth4 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 The Celtics have superior coaching, defense, and depth. I feel dumb for thinking this series was going seven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pair that with Durant essentially being a toe length from sending the eventual champions packing last year, its easy to expect more from them this year having Kyrie available in place of a limping Harden. I don't think anyone expected Durant to be struggling as he has so far against any team. Its really just credit to the Celtics defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarGalley Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Feel like the Nets performance is also on Nash’s coaching. The Kyrie and Kevin only play ISO stuff was in full effect tonight with guys just standing around not even crashing the boards. Thought Seth Curry and Patty Mills should have taken some more threes too, especially late since Durant wasn’t connecting on 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarGalley Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I’m having deja vu right now with this game. Minnesota’s not leading by 20 but that makes it even worse.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we see a Celtics/Suns Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argonath Diver Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I was working for the Bulls' nightmare Game 3 showing and didn't even watch a single replay. Now I'm actively trying to avoid yard work at the parents' property, so I am using them for their TV service. I might be back out with work gloves on by the second quarter. My expectations are very low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argonath Diver Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Yikes, Bulls. Low effort, zero adjustment, bad body language, selfish play, mental errors, you name it. I don't think this season could finish any worse barring another injury. I can't believe how night and day this same roster looked and played three months ago. Arguably even then we ducked a lot of injured superstars that likely would have embarrassed us as Giannis has. And Grayson. Fucking. Allen. God did it have to be him?! Argh.

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Simmons appears to be ruled out for the season now. I hate to say it, but I agree with the take that he's why contracts cannot be guaranteed going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Phoenix might fuck around and blow this shit. The Pelicans look like the better side with Booker out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DireWolfSpirit Posted April 25, 2022 Author Share Posted April 25, 2022 Phoenix will need to find an answer without Devin because he's not getting back on the court this series- With Booker's injury ruled as a Grade 1 hamstring strain, his status for the remainder of the series is now in jeopardy as he is believed to be out for two-to-three weeks.3 days ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relic Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 If Simmons were to come back in game 4 and the Nets lost he would be the first plyer in NBA history to get eliminated in back-to-back games played. Him not coming back is hardly surprising tho. Weak ass shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudfeet Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Yeah, not surprising at all. Still disappointing though. Have to wonder, what is Simmons' value if the Nets want to trade him? Has it collapsed to Westbrook/Wall levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briantw Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 I am disappointed that we're not going to get Nets/Sixers, though. That would have been a fun series with the various subplots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
