Embid is so dirty.

PHI gets game 6. damn. TOR played awful.

props to their coach for keeping in the starters to take the beating in the 4th, up until ~3 minutes.

I'm disappointed with my man Ben Simmons this playoffs. I guess it turns out that having absolutely no jumpshot is not so good in today's NBA. I read this stat somewhere on RealGM about his jumpshot this season vs his rookie season:

Quote
Jump shots outside of 10ft:
Rookie season: 31% on 187 attempts
This season: 20% on 87 attempts

I've never seen a player regressing so badly on such a glaring weakness from rookie to sophomore season. Bizarre given how crucial it is to unlocking his offensive game.

(Having said all that, the Sixers drive me crazy and I'm hoping they get squashed by the Raps, hehe).

damn that's nuts.

i wouldn't mind it as much, if somehow his freethrow percentage wasn't so awful.

if he was determined to get to the rim, and either score, dish, or get fouled (and shoot a high percentage), it'd be fine.

but the fact that his FT % is so awful, means you can basically hack-a-shaq him.



he played great tonight. attacked the rim like a madman. even without the J, he's a threat. that's skills. if he had a J, man o man.. but, if his free throw percentage was decent, even that would open up his offense without shooting J's. just no confidence shooting i guess.

Wall split x 2 mins

Good sesh.

PM ball game. Refs were fucked. Completely terrible both ways which made the game hard. We got hit with a 10 point penalty for not having a scorer and ended up losing by 5. I played ok but missed a couple of easy shots. We were playing with a Molten ball and I've noticed these bounce way more than other balls off the backboard which I didn't adapt to quickly enough. Body felt god though but need more jumping practice.

Day 3 of clean eating in the books.

10 point penalty? wtf?

GSW gets game 5.

enormous W considering Durant went out, and HOU went up 1 shortly after.

hopefully Durant is back. as much as I don't want GSW to win, I don't want to watch the NBA without Durant. lol.

Curry heating up!!!

Curry reminding us he was 2-time MVP etc, in case we forgot.

Durant hurt, Curry immediately steps up, and has taken over.

Yep. That's not good. Hope it's not his Achilles. That would suck so bad.

ya man.

crazy.. especially considering it seemed to happen *AFTER* the shot/play. just trotting back down the court and bam.

hope it's just a cramp, but didn't look good.

Meanwhile they are playing like a bunch of under 10's

GSW in serious trouble right now.

oh man.. Durant hurt. looks bad.

not good. :/

like the commentators said, looked like Durant thought someone threw something at his calf, the way he turned back. then he realized he was hurt.

damn.

 >:(

looked like minor achilles "origin" tear, or soleus strain.

the rebounding situation in this game is insane. HOU looks so small.

pretty crazy.

the way the game has gone so far, can't believe it's still fairly close.

LEGGO BUCKS!!!!!

let's get this done with.

FU*K BOS.

BOS are cooked!

so happy.

Now Kyrie can get across to NY and wait for KD to show up.

i hate NY but i wouldn't mind seeing Durant + Kyrie there.

would be pretty cool. those dudes are "NY af".
