This Celtics/Wiz game is amazing

I’m not even sure you could call them the Celtics - missing arguably their top five players

Luckily the reserves can probably hold on to the 2 seed before the end of the year. Which is great if Cleveland stays at 4. Standings right now are awesome

I like RUSS and all, I think he’s one of the most fun players to watch in the NBA today - but what’s with the obsession with his triple doubles? I mean, Lillard routinely beats RUSS when they play each other. Just sayin’

:trollface:


It's hard to do and it's become routine for him. We've seen a lot of players that have won a little bit like Lillard, but we've never seen anybody able to produce like RUSS. Anytime something new comes people talk about it, especially in cases like this where it can be effectively argued if it's bad or good for the team

Meh. The insane usage rate+okc's philosphy in regards to letting the guards get defensive rebounds to push in transition help a ton. I'm not sold on it being a formula for working in the playoffs, especially with his league average efficiency as far as scoring/shooting .

What has been the key to the Trailblazers win streak? It doesn't look like anything big has changed. Are they just clicking at the right time? Have they gotten over some key injuries?

Defense playing solid, health, Dame playing like a top 5 player, and role players taking turns stepping up are the main things.

I think the team wanted to shop ET as well. Harkless has been starting since the deadline and eating up minutes Turner was playing and he's just a better overall player .

The Blazers bigs are PROTECTING THIS HOUSE and the guards are going #ripcity on some ass

Same, although I feel like Collins might be getting groomed for the 4. I'd rather they resign Davis then overpay for Nurk. Offseason will be interesting for sure.

yeah I guess your right, he's at 220-230 so he needs to put on another 20lbs or so which shouldn't be too difficult with a couple seasons with NBA training. I figured he was lighter then that

Yeah that specific body type is super beneficial to basketball. Probably isn’t real prevalent in the population at large, even of people of that size, but is just over represented in basketball.

Also you do a shit ton of conditioning. My weight would fluctuate around 20 lbs heavier during the off-season compared to in-season during HS.

Celtics win the Kendrick Perkins Memorial Trophy!

Barry Larkin’s son was the C’s third leading scorer

I mean, they call that a loose ball foul and it’s blazers ball with 8 or 9 seconds on the clock with just a 2 point deficit. Instead it isn’t called and CP gets free throws, game over. Idk mang.

I can’t hear you over the sound of Harden circulating the water bath to give you the perfect temperature L.

Houston won a regular season game off the back of a shitty non-call on the last play.

If you want to gloat, we can link The Shot for you if you like. I seem to remember that year the blazers beat yous in a playoff series. No biggie though.
