It is the 2018-19 NBA Playoffs discussion thread for hoops friends ONLY

looked like it yeah

jeez

Not sure I can finish this game man alive

aha cp3 fn w draymond

Cp is a clown and a scourge on the earth

dray should rub the top of his head on every single play

cant argue w that but its also kinda funny what a lil bastard he is

mmm

Early indications on Kevin Durant's lower leg, league source tells ESPN: It doesn't appear to be an Achilles injury.

Praise be

“calf strain”

pivotal game five.....tied

Ugly hoops this series is gross

the rockets are toxic

If dray fouls out....

durant being out for this long puts in stark relief how much the warriors rely on him now... they basically have 2 guys on the roster right now who can score the ball

LOL come on draymond

Cp won

lmaooooo at dray's tech

cant help himself

lmao he is such a doofus

lets pause to appreciate how petty that whole exchange was

dray and cp3 were made for each other it’s true

this is an awful look for the rockets and harden in particular

cp and dray are both pretty much “we live in a society” guys

hahahahahaaaaa

that was a soft foul on dray

refs tired of him

sooo many offensive boards for the dubs tonight

rox blowing a real big opportunity tonight

yes

also did we see the gent sitting behind kerr with a hat that says FUCK in old english letters? bc they just put FUCK on tv ~*UNCENSORED*~

Hahahahaaa

extreme playoffy win tonight for the dubs

i hope daryl morey loses so much sleep over this game

Inspiring win

Truly a whacko game and series

don't think anyone expected so much ugly basketball from this series

It was kinda like this last year but this is even more extreme

Looney what a hero

Kerr just dropped two f bombs in his live presser lol

Lol at kerr in a live press conference repeatedly calling his guys “fucking giants”

amazing to see the Warriors triumph through the adversity of losing Durant and reverting to the 73-9 squad

Kerr sez durant out for game six

that was a nice finish by the dubs but i remain unconvinced they have the horses to run w the rockets for a full game minus durant... steph and klay are gonna need to put up like 70+ points combined

interested to watch them try tbh

also they're going to be really susceptible to foul trouble... steph was ok last night but has gotten into foul trouble before against the rockets. dray fouled out. they're gonna have to figure out how to deal w/ targeted switches and a physical game for the three guys (well, klay is usually fine) that they absolutely cannot afford to lose

true

this game should be fun. splash bros will have the greenest of green lights, probably more high pick n roll between dray and curry which is still one of their deadliest plays (that we rarely see any more), rockets are going to blitz curry so hard so there should be plenty of 4 on 3s if he can keep from doing dumb turnovers. dray will be doing more pushing on offense, iggy will have to make a couple threes, got to get anything from Livingston. kerr will probably give minutes to bench dudes that havent played yet (bogut can play vs nene, maybe cook when rivers plays) to see if they have anything to offer. looney will be important, his offensive rebounds yesterday were massive and he can guard harden respectively without fouling. feels good to be the underdog again!

love being the underdog with a 3-2 series lead

me too
