  1. wtf with his injuries

    I like how he just casually checks himself out of the game after it happened. Happens so many times he’s just like “I’m done”

  2. Ingram can be so good when he's on.  Everyone except Zion sucked for the Pels last night, though.  And of course the Lakers got their +14 FT differential.

    Think the only starter with Zion was Herb Jones until his injury. Yea their 7-8-9 guys were far more effective than CJ, BI and JV

    I don’t think JV played the second half and I don’t think BI played in the 4th qtr

  3. Yeah, that was huge for OKC after the Spurs beating the Nuggets over the weekend and who knows what's going on with Ingram and Zion?  The Kings would win a few games against them and give them some problems but the Lakers would be 50/50 to beat them if not more.

    Ingram looks like some high, disinterested player. They’re about to complete some 18 pt comeback to tie and he’s sitting on bench pouting. I hope sacramento wins. Sac/OKC would be interesting. Keon Ellis has developed into a decent SG with monks absence. That’ll be an up and down series. Sabonis would be a bruiser for Chet
  4. I do. If you aren't in the top 8 after 82 games, then you deserve to sit at home. But money talks so this will never go away.

    I like it. Teams try hard to get out of the play in the latter half of the season. I do think there should be stipulations. Win 47-48-49 games? You’re in and just play for seeding.
    If the 7/8 are 5 games up on the 9/10, then scrap the 9/10 game. Non34 win team should have a shot at the playoffs
    Kings should feel pretty shitty with how that half ended. Won the offensive rebound battle 9 to 1 and the Warriors had 9 turnovers. Leading to 13 more shot attempts for Sac. Steph's been quiet. Klay has been abysmal. They should be up 15, not 4.
    Two aggressively mediocre basketball teams.

    Haven’t seen much of this so far, but klay 0fer? Yikes. This his last season as a warrior?

  5. Pelicans with some life the last half of that qtr. they benched almost every starter but Zion and came back.

    Now Zions gonna need a breather, can they keep it close? BI and CJ have been their worst players

  6. Youth vs. experience, with the unlikely possibility that inexperienced role players forget how to shoot in the playoffs* to make things interesting. 
    *aka the Joe Harris effect

    They keep defying the odds. I didn’t think Chet would last 82 games because he’s outweighed by 60 lbs every night but here we are.

    That would make for an entertaining series tho. OKC would def be out on upset alert. They’re a year removed from getting blown out by MN in the play ins by 25. No chet then but they were outmanned big time. Interesting to see how they’ll do. GS would probably be the one team they’d want. No sabonis, AD/lebron and Jonas/zion.
  7. Also I think Phoenix beats MIN and Dallas beats LAC.

    Wolves have to make defensive adjustments this week. We pride ourselves in protecting the paint and perimeter forcing middies which is phoenixs bread and butter.

    Cut down the turnover cute shit(17 in 21 first half min yesterday) and we should be competitive.

    One thing I’d like to see if 90 foot ball pressure on Beal or Booker. neither are point guards. Letting them casually walk the ball up and get into their set helps Phoenix immensely. Wolves have the defenders and body’s to do this …hope the make those 2 work all series.

    Also Beal cools off this week. He’s shooting >60% in April from 3. Maybe the off week will help. Gotta stay on Grayson Allen too. League leader in 3PT%. Can’t have those 4 scoring 20+ while shooting >50%.

    When drew eubanks is in, we should be attempting 0 3s and attacking non stop at the rim. There’ll be lay ups all day
  8. Do you risk tanking the 7/8 game if you're NO or LA?
    The 7 seed is a death sentence - meanwhile - OKC can probably be had.

    Ain’t nobody tanking win or go home scenarios. The loser gets sac or golden state.2 teams fully capable of winning a single game and ending your season

  9. Lakers are the sleeper team, but GSW might be sleepier.  These HOF loaded teams are so lowly seeded, West was loaded. 

    Gonna be a good play in series.


    Glad the wolves are sitting this one out.
