Reggie Jackson is making so much money these playoffs.

He's another one, along with Middleton and Cam Payne, that really rehabbed his reputation these playoffs.

Clippers and Suns just raining 3s. The shooting is unreal.

Didn't Bird and Wilkins have one back in the 80s? 

[Machinator 32,099]

Waited too long to put George back in.

lso, I think it was really inspiring for the Clippers to have Kawhi on the bench providing his leadership and support to his team. Oh wait... that goldbricking fuck stick was nowhere to be seen. 

Pretty sure I saw him on the bench.  Or at least in the stadium somewhere

Bird didn't get to 40 that game.  I remember that game well - it sure as hell seemed like Bird had 40.  What a great duel that was between Nique and Bird.

Atlanta Hawks at Boston Celtics Box Score, May 22, 1988 | Basketball-Reference.com

Kind of comical looking at the boxscore - just 14 3s shot combined by both teams.

Clippers are just mentally tougher than Phoenix, especially with no CP3 to settle the Suns down.

(Hopefully I'll be wrong about this and Phx comes back to win, but things looking bleak late in the 3rd qtr)

Nailed it.

NBA officiating is trash. And they're full time.

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

Just like everyone predicted pre-season: Suns/Bucks as the NBA finals favorites

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,921]

Kevin Heuter shitting all over Philly

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

Flagrant fouls are so dumb in today's NBA. Makes it too WWE 

[Vic Mackey 47,439]

Embiid is such a frustrating player - talented as hell but makes a lot of dumb decisions and takes a lot of unnecessarlily tough shots.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,921]

Wow this games awesome. Baskets coming at a premium

Both teams nervous and bricky.

 

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

76ers need to unload Ben Simmons. You just cannot have a 0 on offense if a championship is the goal.

I'm rooting for Seth Curry though.

[Firemans4Horn 18,348]

Lol, Simmons gives up a wide open dunk. Dude is mentally broken.

No worries - Philly on the hook for only $140 million over the next 4 years.

[Brothahorn 10,088]

And Doc is leading his team to early vacation by leaving him in.

[Esque 135]

Lol, Simmons gives up a wide open dunk. Dude is mentally broken. 

Yeah, yikes. How much value has he lost this season? Just in this playoffs alone? First Fultz and now Simmons. No idea what PHI does going forward if they lose this. Dump Simmons and do what / get what? Do you really want to continue to center the team around Embid? I wouldn’t.

Porzingis for Simmons. Let’s get weird. 

[Firemans4Horn 18,348]

 

[Message Board User 12,397]

Such a close game - that flagrant by Dwight Howard looks even more stupid.

[Firemans4Horn 18,348]

Philly play like a Doc Rivers coached team.

fouling huerter on the 3.

 

stupid gets you beat.

[Message Board User 12,397]

I hope Simmons stays in the game here - I always find it funny how much energy he expends to make sure he DOESN'T get the ball in these situations.

[ztejas 43,787]

Philly lol. I think that was Meek Mill they just showed. He doesn't look super stoked.

[Firemans4Horn 18,348]

Cool iso ball with your center 22 feet from the hoop.

I’m loving the stupid, and the Philly crowd shots of miserable assholes. 

[Firemans4Horn 18,348]

😂 at that travel and or foul and neither being called. 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,921]

The fuck was that? Botched pass, missed travel bucket?

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,921]

Hahahahah here come the water bottles. Trash city.

[Wulaw Horn 19,343]

I like Morey a lot. He gets a pas from me as a Rockets fan, just as Harden does, because I’m absolutely certain I’d rather squeeze my dick in vice grips than have Tillman Ferntits, the worlds 2nd worst fake Billionaire, as a boss. 
So, I was kind of rooting for Philly and DM. But, watching Philly fans get shit all over is pretty satisfying too.

Cam Johnson coming up big.

Cam is a good dude. His dad, Gilbert played at Pitt and was a couple years behind me in school. Gil is a good guy as well. I used to watch Cam some in high school. The neighbor kid across the street “held” Cam to 35 points in a playoff game. It might have been worse but Cam had spent the first two days of the week in hospital and was cleared that day to play.

Nobody holds a grudge against Cam for transferring during the Kevin Stallings disaster. Some of the things Gil told me that Stallings said to Cam were ridiculous and stupid. 
 

I wish Cam nothing but success.

[Message Board User 12,397]

Your franchise players, Sixers fans.  

Charles Barkley commentary should be pretty good coming up.

[staboner 5,017]

holy hell some of these stats are just mind bottlingling 

the embiid turnovers may be the worst of the bunch. good lord man. 

[Firemans4Horn 18,348]

Ben Simmons shot 100% from the field in the 4th quarter this series and the 76ers still lost.

$177,000,000 in five years for Simmons, guaranteed 

[Message Board User 12,397]

Non-zero chance that in a few years the consensus will be that the Hawks won the Luka trade.

[Message Board User 12,397]

 

[Aqua Buddha 14,672]

The Embid turnover number is high because his PG can't touch the ball.

[Machinator 32,099]

This Philly team was a chore to watch. Glad they're out. Curious to see what magic Morey can work with extracting value from Simmons.
