this could have been so much easier with some of those fts

or 3pts
getting killed by offensive rebounds in crunch time is the worst way to lose

what a play by tatum

oh gosh van vleet dribbling that whole possession into a garbage shot it's just not what ya want

incredible possession from the best coach in the league nick "nurse" nurse

he was totally bottled up by jaylen and then grant held up on the switch
― call all destroyer, Saturday, 12 September 2020 03:47 (three years ago) link
i mean lowry being out of the game is massive, you get to shift a lot of resources to van vleet and as much as i like him he's not a #1 guy

For the first time in NBA history, the Eastern Conference Finals will NOT feature a No. 1 or No. 2 seed!
that's wild
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 September 2020 04:05 (three years ago) link
da bubble baby
like 75% of the layups van vleet took this series were pure prayers
― lag∞n, Saturday, 12 September 2020 04:06 (three years ago) link
yeah, van vleet sucks at the rim.
― call all destroyer, Saturday, 12 September 2020 04:07 (three years ago) link
and he shouldn't iso on anyone. he's a good catch and shoot guy and like a third option on offense.

Please note: Meyers Leonard has now led** two different teams to their conference finals in consecutive years!
**if one weights intangible contributions from the bench very heavily

I usually tune in for the fourth quarter, but I was determined to watch most of last night's game from the start. I got disheartened early on and switched off, missing the one stretch where the Raptors apparently played really well (their 24-9 run to take the lead), otherwise saw most of it.
For a close game, it was ugly and not very satisfying. The Raptors really had no business being so close at the end. Boston seemed determined to keep them in the game, but even when they missed those late free throws, Toronto continued to throw the ball away.
The one area where Toronto was legitimately impressive. They really swarm the opposition when they need to.
I mentioned something similar in the finals thread last year, before he became a hero: his maddening habit of dribbling into traffic around the basket seemingly without any plan or purpose.
I'm not sure what to make out of Siakam. (Lots of blame to go around last night besides him.) I don't know if it was a specific match-up thing, or if he's just not as good as everyone had come to believe.
Jayson Tatum is really great.
― clemenza, Saturday, 12 September 2020 14:35 (three years ago) link
siakim just doesnt have #1 scoring option skills its kinda crazy he averaged 23 in the regular season not sure how he did it but he got exposed in the playoffs, as we saw last year he would be great as a second option/all around player
