  1. I'm sure we will see a good bit of small ball with Gobert on the floor. After game 1 of the Utah series, he only played more than 30 minutes once the rest of the series after Dallas went small. I can't imagine Kidd doesn't try to replicate some of that strategy early.
  2. Tissot PRX is a pretty solid watch in that range with plenty of options for dial colors. You can pick up a rubber strap as well for more sport durability and what you spend can vary from a few hundred to 700 or so depending on movement you choose.
  3. Gotta love the media shitting on Kyrie to the point Dallas could pick him up for next to nothing.
  4. Unreal. Another chance to ass fuck the Mavericks.
  5. Just hilarious Chet gets those calls for being so fucking soft.
  6. Kidd cannot want to win this game if he keeps playing Hardy. He is a defensive abortion.
  7. THJ and Hardy on floor at same time is just criminal at this point
  8. Yep. Regardless of result tonight it needs to be said: fuck Tony Brothers and his soft whistle.
  9. This is also due to the way Dallas is funneling all of the shooters inside to concede a floater or challenge at the rim and running them off the 3 pt line or forcing rushed attempts. OKC has missed some open looks but it isn't like they are just bricking wide open shots.
  10. If that’s a foul Dort commits 20 a game.
  11. Dort getting away with constant hacking and still getting cooked by Luka is very amusing.
  12. I agree. I also think we start fast with a young OKC team struggling to get up after a big win.
  13. We got bad Green and Hardaway tonight and it showed. The same guys who kept things going when Luka/Kyrie needed rest or couldn’t on Saturday were dogshit tonight and it showed. If they turn in this performance on Saturday we probably would have lost that one too.
  14. If Luka and Kyrie can get remotely warm at same time this is going to get ugly quick.
  15. Yeah, I think that two things can and probably are true: Luka does complain quite a bit and he also takes a lot of contact that doesn't always result in FTs.
  16. The fact that Scott Foster skated by after his connections to TD were exposed without a legitimate inquiry should tell you all that you need to know about how Stern felt about this stuff. While there hasn't been anything concrete, when there is enough smoke around this stuff generally there is some element of truth. I find it very hard to believe TD was the only official gambling during that time period. Scott Foster-Tim Donaghy links
  17. It put Mavs into bonus with six minutes to go and they were lucky that Dallas didn’t take further advantage of that. It also completely took away the ability OKC has to create turnovers and score/get to line in transition which is a huge weapon. I would be pretty surprised if we see it again.
  18. I can’t think of the last time a #1 seed was so desperate in a game 3 to resort to the hacking strategy. This feels like a newer coach getting desperate.
  19. Interesting strategy to willingly get torched by PJ to cheat off on Kyrie who is happy to make the wide open pass all night.
  20. I know what the numbers say and I think he’s a good defender. I just don’t think if you took him off that team he would have the same impact like you would see with Holiday. OKC has a unique defensive scheme that emphasizes his combo of size and aggressiveness.
  21. I watched a good bit of OKC this year and I still don’t get all the Dort hype. He benefits so much from that system of random blitzing and double teams with Chet playing safety.
  22. Have never been happier to be dead wrong.
  23. Pretty lucky to get out of that sequence still up 9.
  24. Maybe one day Chet will get called for a foul
