Welcome back!!!



I think if the Twolves are to have any chance to win tonight they need to go small and start Towns at Center (LOL DPOY unplayable in the playoffs!) but this will mean KAT needs to be super smart and stay the **** out of foul trouble.

He was mashing buttons with the rotation all year but it seemed to work pretty well and I thought there was a method to his madness until they acquired Hayward and he inexplicably kept giving him more minutes than good players like Joe/Wiggins/Wallace well past the point where it was clear that he's completely washed.

I agree Dallas is better which I didn't think before the series. I probably expected a bit too much from JDub/Chet (and I guess the coach of the year) in their first postseason. The counterpoint is that the Mavs have been on the right side of 3 point variance - it could easily be a different series if OKC was shooting close to what they did all season. But that's balanced out by the fact that the Mavs completely blew game 4 and would've otherwise won 4 in a row.

after game 2 malone made good adjustments, murray healed his leg, jokic returned to joker form. but man wolves D fell off a cliff. not sure if its physical fatigue from berserking the first 6 postseason games, or mental breakdowns after charles barkley declared them western conference champions and they lost the nothing-to-lose chip on their shoulder, or just rudy returning to the lineup (have another baby please), but they'll have to regain that form to have a chance. also conley/mcdaniels/towns need to make some 3s so nuggets cant keep doubling ant all game. thanks.

I think the Mavs have gotten significantly better looks than OKC

OKC could really use a high volume 3pt shooter as their SG, a poor mans Klay Thompson or rich mans Max Struss type.

NBA needs some good playoff games before 1 of these bidders for the tv deal tells silver "deal is off, sue me, my company is based out of Dubai" like in Entourage when they thought they had a deal to sell Medellin before it bombed at Cannes.

playoffs have kinda sucked besides some knicks games

I love his offbeat sayings and analogies.


"Big Body Brunson". Brunson is not 6'2.. he's gotta be max 6' 0.5'' barefoot. And he's listed at 190 lbs but I say he weighs at least 205 lbs.

Yeah I think he plays a bit like a mini-Zion or Barkley. Super physical like them, but he can pull up at any time and pop. Seems to make it ungardable. You need Rodman or somebody like that to guard him.
