I usually don't get excited until the conference finals but this year with so many UNC guys playing in RD1 I'm watching everything.Unfortunately not many former Heels left, but SHEESH, this 1st round has been FANTASTIC !!! Trea adds to the eye popping stuff. Ant and Jam Murray going at it. Every night has been good stuff.
Should’ve blown it up this year. Maybe not trade the young guys, but why keep 3 slightly above average players? Very weird organization. They’re like the only organization in the NBA that’s ok with being mediocre.From what I hear they are going to pay and keep him. His attitude is A-ONE, he worked hard to get competent in his ball handling. He shoots the 3 which they SUCK at. Ayo may be the trade target now.
Agreed, without Ball as the main cog the pieces do not fit, and Ball is unlikely to ever recover. DeRozen was the obvious trade deadline move with his value. Vuch is a free agent, LeVine is a max contract.Should’ve blown it up this year. Maybe not trade the young guys, but why keep 3 slightly above average players? Very weird organization.

Imo lavine is like dame, and cannot win with those guys. Need the ball too much and too many shots.Agreed, without Ball as the main cog the pieces do not fit, and Ball is unlikely to ever recover.

Yes, DeMar and Zach are ball heavy guys. Ball was the cog to space, good 3 % and deliver the rock, they meshed pretty well with him at the helm. Levine is on a newly signed max contract, DeRozen is on a closer to expiring deal, and had interest from this year's playoff teams at the deadline. He was the prime movable piece, with Ball's return doubtful at all, and at the least a long way off still, I do think they should of dealt away at the deadline.Imo lavine is like dame, and cannot win with those guys.

Will be an interesting offseason for HB. UFA and the Kings probably need to upgrade from him. But free agents don’t really go to Sacramento so it might be in their best interest to try to keep him.Disappointing end for Harrison Barnes and the Kings.
Game 7 loss at home to then defending champs!
HB with only 4 pts in 14 min.
He definitely didn’t help any. Hard to watch. He probably helps a lot on the bench and locker room with his leadership.Will be an interesting offseason for HB.

Really thin margins at that level. He makes the game winner in game 4 and the Kings probably win the series and HB is viewed entirely differently right now.He definitely didn’t help any. Hard to watch. He probably helps a lot on the bench and locker room with his leadership.
One of my first thoughts was Cam on this team or even him on grizz to replace brooks. GameChanger to both teams imo.Really thin margins at that level. He makes the game winner in game 4 and the Kings probably win the series and HB is viewed entirely differently right now.
But a difficult matchup going up against Wiggins, Klay, and Draymond. Three plus level defenders.
Probably need a better wing player if you want to be a contender.
Make open 3’s, defend your position, pass it a little is a good way to play in a lot of meaningful NBA games.One of my first thoughts was Cam on this team or even him on grizz to replace brooks. GameChanger to both teams imo.
Yep, he struggled in this series for sure.He definitely didn’t help any. Hard to watch. He probably helps a lot on the bench and locker room with his leadership.
Cool! Should we leave off Jayson Tatum, Brandon Ingram just because?NBA wings Harrison Barnes is still better than
1. Jabari Parker
2. Justise Winslow
3. Rodney Hood
4. Gary Trent
5. Cam Reddish
Vince Carter > Tatum and IngramCool! Should we leave off Jayson Tatum, Brandon Ingram just because?
I agree man. Been good so far.Knicks/Heat keeping up the elite competition, grinding with elite play/shot making. This year's NBA playoffs season has been incredible. So intense, gotta love the game.
Definitely one of the best playoffs in recent years. One would be guessing if you picked a favorite to win imo.My gosh, this year's playoffs are insane. After the Sixers/Celtics classic this afternoon, this Sun/Nuggets game is bonkers. The next level performances by the stars is jaw dropping. The competition level is through the roof!!!!
Insane !!! When he gets cookin' it's oh my !!!! I think he has a 70 point game and 2 60 points games for his young career? He has been knocking down everything.Devin Booker shooting near 80% from the field combined in games 3 and 4 is absolutely absurd.
TJ Warren was an 18 ppg scorer and shot 40% from 3 before but has always been injury prone.TJ Warren is hot garbage.
How is that guy still in the league and getting good minutes in the playoffs?
Justin Jackson can score 6 points and grab 3 rebounds.
I'm just rooting for KD to get 1 more rebound to get a pretty nice parlay home...😆TJ Warren is hot garbage.

His career is about the same as yours right now. 🗑️TJ Warren was an 18 ppg scorer and shot 40% from 3 before but has always been injury prone.
Damn... Justin Jackson must REALLY suck then.His career is about the same as yours right now. 🗑️
