Don't worry guys, the Celtics will come back and win the series because they have Playoff experience.

Hey aren’t you the retard who thinks the lakers aren’t total garbage and will win a chip with cryrie? Lmao

That's just how it goes, shame /nba/ had to suffer

listen pedro, you don't want to mess with us. We have one of the most autistic fanbases on all of Yea Forums. If we wanted to we could send sparks poster or larry to ruin all of your soccer threads.

As long as they’re eating more of them cookies, they’re good. You know what, we’ll make it fair for Philly and someone should send embiid some cookies to settle that upset wittle tummy he’s having.

Hot take: the east is still garbage and the winner of GSW/HOU will win the chip as both teams are miles better than the rest of the league

I don't know, the Bucks are a formidable foe and Kawhi's playing the best he's ever played so the East ain't all bad, and I'm also doubtful of both the Golden State and the Rockets winning the chip this year, I'm all in on Denver .

he's seething. Also looks like he got 10 years older in the last 2. Like he's not so slowly morphing into uncle drew

>hot take
Don't think you know what that means

gonna be a quiet one at scotiabank tonight i think. game 6 will be the real clincher

If I were playing on that Celtics team, I’d want to fucking throttle him. If this was hockey, we’d take his bag and dump it in the showers and when it goes to get it, lock him in for a couple hours.

He's lashing out because he failed. He's realizing that he's not as good as he thinks he is and it's made him angry and defensive.

This fall from grace is legit funny as hell.

Hot take: Canada can get fucked

You really don't know what that means

I still don’t understand Milwaukee. What happened? Did ownership started caring? Luck at the draft like Cleveland? It’s not like people give away free shit to them like how Boston gets showered in free picks for Ainge.

Reminder Irving never lead a team to the ploffs till LeBron went home

I'm in college, so I have the luxury of annoying you.

O Canada

Why is Ben Simmons hyped up? He's one of the most useless starters in the NBA. Butler would be a fool to stay in Philly with Mr. 2 years away from being 10 years away from being elite.

Go Portland

Fuck Embitch.

Pretty much this, Giannis was a fucking string bean when he got drafted and then in the next few years he developed into the fucking hulk. Then they got a lot of great shooters/role players that don't give a fuck about stats other than the W. This year they finally found a HC who knows what the fuck he's doing

Should the Bucks keep Brogdon out the rest of the playoffs? Hill and Pat are playing great in his absence and the last thing they need is a chemistry issue. They barely have any stars to begin with.

I remember back in 2009 when the Magic brought back Jaqueer Nelson in the finals against the Lakers. Jaqueer fucked the chemistry up so bad the Magic crumbled in 5 after BTFO'ing the 65 win Cavs. Magic should have kept Rafer Alston in the starting lineup and the Bucks should continue to keep Hill in the starting lineup.

TOBIAS HARRIS SUCKS

Really disappointed with my Sixers. I thought they had the strategy and mindset dialed in when they won game 3. But they just looked lost tonight. Tobias Harris isn’t shooting well, Embiid looks like he’s really slowed down over the past 2 games, and they just got absolutely BTFO tonight. I’ve never been the guy to make excuses for when my team loses and I call it how I see it. Raptors fans, I don’t know what next season is going to look like for you, but at least for now I hope you both realize and enjoy just how good Kawhi is. That dude is a fucking MONSTER. I think everyone knew he was great, but watching him in this series and seeing how complete his offensive game has become is straight up amazing to me. I feel like I’m witnessing something special. He might be the best player in the league right now in my opinion if he keeps this level of play up.

Thanks bruh. Just trying to enjoy as much Kawhi as possible right now and not worrying about the offseason. Feels nice to finally have a true superstar, and arguably the current greatest player in the world at that

Why do you think all the higher seeds have beaten the lower seeds. Its because regular season actually fucking matters.

>Imagine trading basically 3 first round picks (counting Shamet) to get Tobias Harris
>Imagine thinking of actually maxing Tobias Harris when he is nowhere worth a max contract

Will the 76ers actually going to do it due to MUH SUNK COST?

"your raptor"

Haha, I bet you don't even know who Vince Carter is. Fairweather "We the North" frauds. I hope you REALLY REALLY enjoy watching Kawhi in LA next year.

He scored 18 ppg while shooting 39% from the three. He was 21 years old. He had a fantastic playoffs which was why 2018-19 regular season was such a let down. But go ahead and believe in your headcanon while Jaylen shits all over the East and especially whatever shit team you support the next ten years.

Attached: i-2-360x155.jpg (360x155, 12K)

The Sixers have to sign Butler and Tobias to the max now. If they don't they won't have a future. Embiid and Simmons will never be enough. Also, I think Simmons is getting traded to the Lakers soon.

The 2015 Hawks would like to have a word with you

If they could hit an open 3 before tonight this would have been a sweep

Jaylen Brown is Tony Allen 2.0. He will never be anything more than the 5th or 6th best player on a contending team.

The 2019 Bucks are actually the 2009 Cavs.

IFF they do max both Jimmy Buckets and Tobi while giving Simmons his big boy paycheck (max rookie extension like Embiid) this offseason then wouldn't their cap sheet be fucked for the next few years?

>Also, I think Simmons is getting traded to the Lakers soon.

Would Lebron really want another PG that can't really shoot?

Isn't it more like the 2009 Magic? (Giannis and a bunch of shooters vs D12 and a bunch of shooters)

Lakers and Celtics picks are anywhere from decent role players to #2-3 options on a contending team.
Suns picked straight up busts.
Sixers picks range from historic busts to deeply flawed stars.

No, the sad thing is these teams didn't have their draft pick in 2018. Well, the Suns did but they're retarded, lol.

The 2018 Draft is the draft of the decade. It will produce 3 HOFers (Doncic, 3rae, JJJ), 2 all-stars (Bagley and Ayton), and a lot of great role players (Bridges, SGA, Sexton, Carter).

>while Jaylen shits all over the East
>currently one game away from elimination after promising a finals trip
kek. The Celtshits won't be dominating anyone with their contract situation. Unless they trade for AD, but your beloved Gaylen will be shipped off to irrelevancy land if that happens. New Englander tears are delicious.

Of course LeBron would. Now that Ernies gone he's the worst GM in the league.

No, because D12 is a much superior defender than Giannis and Giannis is a much bigger refbabby like LeBron.

How does Giannis swish threes sometimes but completely airball them the other times? It's like he has no middle ground.

2009 Magic actually made the Finals. Bucks won’t.

That’s exactly the mindset I would have. Enjoy the playoffs knowing that you have the best basketball player in the planet playing on your team against other playoff-caliber opponents and dominating. I felt happy as fuck when we beat you guys in game 3 because I know you guys are legit good and we ran you that time, and Embiid entertains with a different energy. Obviously I want to fucking win the series but I love playoff basketball period, and I’m not just a bandwagon fan who hopped on the Sixers once they started emerging. I’ve been through the lean years so a second round exit while mega disappointing is nothing to me in the long run.

If we lose then maybe it’s a sign we shouldn’t lock up Tobias Harris idk

nothing but refs

I’d guess muscle memory from not locking down his form yet, if I were a bettin’ man.

Danny Ainge is a retard. He wasted a golden opportunity by swindling the dumbest and most desperate GM in the league at the time, and what does he do with his pot of gold?

>Drafts literal team cancer in Rozier
>Drafts a bunch of Euro faggots and white dudes
>Then he trades the heart and soul of his team for the biggest diva of the decade in Kyrie. He follows that up by maxing a white boi.

The only smart move Ainge made since the Nets trade was signing Horford. Horford is the only player that was keeping the Celtics relevant all those years.

Now, lets contrast that with what the Nets did:

>Drafted great value picks in RHJ, Jarrett Allen, Levert and Kurucs
>Traded nothing for D'Lo
>Have a bunch of capspace for stars
>Doing this with zero lottery picks the last 4 years

Isn't it funny the Nets have a brighter future right now than the Celtics?

literally what went wrong with the Celtics?

How low does your bbiq has to be to think that getting rid of Isaiah Thomas was a bad move?

Apparently they forgot to max IT according to this genius here

Hell, I'd rather have Sexton on a rookie contract right now over a maxed out, blown knees Kyrie for 5 years.

Ironic, the biggest reason why they traded IT was injury issues and that's what they'll be facing if they re-sign Kyrie.

The only situation that makes sense for Kyrie is going to the Lakers to reunite with LeBron and Lue. At least then he can blame it on LeBron instead of having all the blame shouldered on him.

We'd have Celtics vs. (Nets/Magic) and Warriors vs, (Spurs/Blazers) conference finals. The warriors would probably still win though, but it'd be a lot more exciting than what we got.

At least he’s more believable than Mr 2 viruses.This philly team is the second most disrespectful team in the playoffs. They’re above the warriors and their thug tactics that makes streetball look civil but below Rockets and their utter bitchfits at the refs and endless excuses And harden reliance on the refs.

They’re children in every sense of the word. Puffing their chest out in victories burt utter cowards with no grace when things start going badly in winnable games. They rely purely the physical abilities to overpower teams.

When your team fucking leader and defecto veteran is a dude whose constantly burning bridges on the other teams he’s been on, there’s something extremely wrong. The 76ers culture is a sick gimmick, an insult to sports. We’ve had professional tank jobs in the clippers for decades that have since become admirable contenders compared to “The Process”

Shitxers traded for an all or bust lineup and they still getting bounced in 2nd rounds. It's so fun to shit on Brett Brown

Except that can’t be the case because those one games would’ve been treated in a dramatically different way than as it is in a 7 games series. Stop being dumb.

Brett Brown can coach the new Celtics after Kyrie leaves.

With Brad there's too much expectation to reach the ECF or beyond and that's just not possible with a trash roster.

With Brett Brown, all he needs to do is turn Brown and Tatum into All-Stars.

Lonzo and Kyrie on the same team?

Would Lebron want to even want to play with Kyrie again? I’ve heard no talk about Kyrie to LA

They aborted the process dumbfuck that’s why they fucking suck

Oh ya, like how he taught Simmons how to pull a jumpshot or made sure that Embiid wasn’t eating junk food or fucking around on his cellphone

Brad Steven knows how to play with random kids from who Ville. Brett brown can’t even control adults

>both Celshits and Sixshits playing bad and getting btfo

they truly belong with one another

7 game series is really gay for basketball

by the same logic Stevens can't control adults either and can only coach kids. He damn sure isn't controlling kyrie

Brad Stevens has made zero impact on Brown and Tatum's development.

He also can't coach a real team, he's only good when its bench guys like IT and Jae Crowder.

>hurr hinke didn’t get to finish. That’s why they suck.
Do you come from an alternate reality where McDonalds is healthy and 76ers became a 20 year dynasty? It was a shit plan to start and costed the reputation of a once decent franchise to get to this point where Their all stars are good for being on Twitter. Get tucked

I vote for Hollins

All of those commentator guys are straight talking out of their asses, all the time, saying shit that is either common sense, or just being flat out wrong. How the fuck do they even have their jobs being so consistently wrong? Its like a bunch of idiots shit talking, none of them ever have anything insightful to fucking say. Id rather watch a panel of Canadians shitpost than the average NBA analyst, thats how fucking worthless they are.

That's just ESPN

With all the mouse shekels all they get is Jalen Rose, Paul Pierce and Chauncey Billups begging for a front office job

At least FS1 has LeShannon and Skip Bayless

I mean there used to be someone like Stewart. God bless his soul

The current batch of so called "sports analysts" are basically nothing but hot take artists peddling nonsensical opinions for views and clicks

But aren't some of those current analysts in FS1 have besides Shannon, Nick and Chris Carter just ESPN rejects anyways? (Skip, Boussard, and Cowherd)

Holy shit wait, so in theory the Clippers could go 20 million or more over the salary cap and all Ballmer has to do is shell out a paltry 50m? Thats chump change to him. Now I see why having a rich owner is so important. They could realistically sign Kawhi and two other superstars without any real issue. Ballmer seems to love the game and the franchise to it wouldnt be surprising at all if he wants to get the franchise that ring. I know jack shit about NBA finances so someone correct me if im wrong. Is this why Jerry West signed on? Because Ballmers insanely deep pockets allow him to basically pull off whatever the fuck he wants since money is no object?

Ballsy user. You probably only bet like $10 though.

The salary cap doesn't work like that. They do have around $60 million in cap space to work with next season since there are a few contracts off the books, but you can only sign players over the cap limit if you have their Bird Rights. IFF the Clippers really want a second max contract player then they'll probably have to bundle Gallinari's expiring contract with something else (their extra picks from the Tobias Harris trade and maybe an extra young player or two) to make it happen

>Is this why Jerry West signed on?

He probably wanted to work in the Lakers FO as his last gig but didn't get it due to "personal" reasons so he took Ballmer's offer. Remember that he is "just a consultant" for the Clippers giving advice to the actual PoBO and GM

Their job is shitposting in real life.

They just fill the dead time between commercials and when the game is on. That's it.

So that whole luxury tax thing only comes into play for players who the team has "Bird Rights" to, and to have those, they have to have been on the team for at least 3 seasons. Throwing out Gallinari with a few picks would definitely be the best option at this point. He simply could not show up in the Playoffs to save his life.

So the real advantage of his ridiculously deep pockets for the team would be long term, bare minimum 3 years from now. Signing two stars now would be fantastic though. Thanks for the explanation. Either way, the future looks bright.

it's weird how that doesn't translate to anything tangible on the court. A team with Lebron and a guy that good would surely make the playoffs

Ingarbage is a 130 pound shrimp scrub

Is Anybody vs Raptors in the Finals gonna be USA vs Canada posts?

Both Ingram and LeBron were injured for 1/3 of the season at separate times. They barely played together. When they did play together the Lakers were a 4th seed.

Oh, and just looking at Ingram, he looks like an undeveloped Siakam. Once he reaches Siakam's age, he will have Siakam's build. Combine that with Ingram's better slashing abilities, Ingram will be somewhere between Siakam and Giannis when he reaches his peak.

Jamal Murray is a poor man's Kyrie Irving. He is a total meme that will get exposed hard against the Warriors or Rockets next round.

Pascal and Ingram have a four year age difference. Ages 21-25 is when you gain muscle in the NBA.

To write off Ingram as the best prospect in the 2016 draft is retarded. The draft was incredibly weak and has yet to produce a top 25 player yet. Ingram has plenty of time to catch up and pass Murray and the east memes.

Ingram was balling the fuck out in January and February before his injury.. He was averaging 21, 6 and 3.5 on 50% shooting. Rest of the league will see very soon. The kid is still raw and has the tools to grow.

murray isn't really a point guard

I think Kawhi has the edge, but they probably won't guard each other as often as we would love to see.

Ben Simmons does that on an average day and he can't even shoot. Why is Ingram better than him or have more upside

That faggot has such a punchable face. Just want to smack that hairlip off his face.

This will happen. They will play Kyrie at SG

There's been many stories of players having full careers after blood clots even in the 80s and 90s when technology was shit. Bosh was a fag so the HIV didn't mix well with the clotting.

He literally only played 75% of the season. People forget he was suspended the first week of the NBA and then left in February.

But yeah, Ingram will never make it. Might as well write him off with injuries just like Curry and Embiid.

Face it, youre not making the Playoffs next year either, faggot

>Might as well write him off with injuries just like Curry and Embiid.
correct, blood clots always come back and he has had other injuries, hes another one of the >le perpetually injured men who will never amount to anything and will eventually be traded per leGMs request. His career ended before it even began

>Ingram this
>Pascal that
>Simmons bad
>Murray good

For me, it's Markelle Fultz. Just you wait until he returns with his shot back. Just wait!

Because Ingram can create his own shot. His midrange was gaining a fuckton of steam in January and February. You literally can't block his shot. Simmons apes his way to the basket with his HGH arms. That's not sustainable in the playoffs.

Are the lakers fans just showing up to talk deluded? And I thought being in nfl and always hearing DEM BOYS chirping was bad.

how exactly are they getting davis again

pelicans dont even have to trade davis this year lmao

let lebeta waste another year of his career, he's already declining severely and constantly gets blocked by scrubs now

The trade:

Pelicans get: Lonzo, Ingram, Hart, 11th pick
Lakers get: Davis

This will be the absolute best offer the Pelicans will get. Their bargaining power is gone now that Kyrie is leaving the Celtics.

If the Pelicans don't trade Davis next year, they will be left with Jrue and the literal who's for the next decade.

>Ayesha Curry: I don't like groupies around Steph. Also, I'm upset random guys don't pay attention to me.

Steph is shit at picking marital partners like he's shit in the playoffs.

The only reason the Pelicans nixed the trade to begin with is because Danny Ainge told them sweet lies about literal shitters Tatum, Smart and Rozier. Now that Kyrie is leaving that sorry ass team, Ainge will be forced to stick with the youth movement. There is no other team that will trade for Davis because they don't want the free agency drama. Celtics don't have the bargaining power for it.

TL;DR- Lakers hold all the cards

Lonzo is more valuable than Tatum at this point considering Tatum is shit at defense and both bring the same amount of offense to a team.

Lonzo's ability to guard other team's best guards is the trump card. Tatum gets routinely beat by white bois named Pat.

and people give a shit about injury prone bustzo, bloodgram, and blackhole chucker kuzma?

Tatum is better than anyone who's played on the Lakers in 5 years

I am so sick of the Eastern Conference meme. We all know damn well the real finals is being played right now with the Warriors and Rockets.

D'Lo is leagues better than Tatum

The Bucks, unlike the Raptors, are a solid team even without Giannis. Giannis will cancel out Kawhi and the rest of the Bucks are better than the rest of the Raptors

>team with two certified chokers

Tatum is virtually the same player as Kuzma. The only thing that separates them is 2.5 years in age.

so very dense. lets just wait a week and see

Kuzmutt is assisted on like 85% of his shots. Faggot cannot create his own shot

I fucking hate boston but Tatum is still better than all the young shitters on lelkers combined

Fucking literal cancer. FUCK, we had to deal with this last year with the Celtics and Cavs. Now, this year it's the Bucks and Raptors. If you only have one top 25 player on your team you're going to get curbstomped by the Warriors. It's like clockwork.

kawhi curbstomps the warriors singlehandedly when he isn't injured by some euroscum

eat shit

Tatum can't even score 30 points in a game.

nuggets-blazers is the real finals

ingram is better than tatum at everything besides defense

He can tho

How are the nuggets ass raping the blazers but went to 7 against the spurs??? Are the blazers that much of frauds?

Kawhi had Aldridge who was/is a top 25 player and championship pedigree in Ginobli, Parker and Pau.

Kawhi now has the biggest choke artist in playoff history in Lowry, a total meme in Siakam and the lesser Gasol on his team with zero championship pedigree around him. Same goes for Giannis. Durant basically cancels out both Giannis and Kawhi. What are the Raps/Bucks going to do with the rest of the Dubs?

One time his whole career he has done it. Kuzma scored 40+ in 3 quarters. Also, did you see Tatum get blocked by Bledsoe in the 4th last game? Shit was so embarrassing. Tatum telegraphed hard a layup. His handles are so shit that he essentially becomes useless if going up against a brick wall like Giannis in the paint.

Please review this video and tell me Tatum will ever be an all-star.

It's because that was a relatively simple two footed dunk. Cavs defense was so poor that slow poke Tatum was given a red carpet to dunk.

Watch right here to see a man's dunk: youtube.com/watch?v=sjj8Uob7HuM

No. He is a poor, fat Euro version of Pau Gasol. If Gasol played in this era he would be averaging 20, 15 and 7 too.

CP3 isn't even a top 15 guard

Kawhi is going to the Lakers to form a dynasty with LEBRON

It's easy to be efficient when you're trying to protect your stats while losing important games. Harden is a gamer and a true champ just like his mentor Kobe Bean Bryant.

>KAT
even Gobert is better, what a fucking bust KAT is

Giannis is shooting like 40% from 3 against the Celshits

Your muh feelz lists are hereby discarded.

>Celshits
opinion discarded, I could shoot 50% against them

WTF bros you told me Vucevic was a fraud

le statpad on a shit team man

He's not. He's also the only basketball player in the Orlando Magic.

Real life solutions for the Sixers:

>Trade Simmons to the Nets for D'Lo
>re-sign Tobias and Butler
>sign Beverly to MLE
>sign Seth Curry and Redick to Vet Min

C: Embiid
PF: Tobias
SF: Butler
SG: D'Lo
PG: Beverly
Bench: Boban, Seth, Redick, Zhaire

There, they are title contenders now

>ben simmons having any trade value after this series

>harden is a true champ and carries the whole team every night!!
>forgets dantonio's system is ISO ball into chucking 3s and stick out legs for fouls
>forgets he has a surrounding cast that took them to the first seed the year before
Harden is part of the system because he works well with the bullshit ISO into foul strategy. Give any of the top 7 I mentioned that many ISO ball situations and they would have better PPG than harden. What he does is impressive but only for his insane endurance.

>Gobert 16ppg
>KAT 24ppg
There is a difference when KAT is more efficient and has 1/3 more ppg than that jobber.

sorry I did forget vucevic.

>Oh hey look, mah, our team was blown the fuck out tonight but I made sure to make 9/12 shots!

Gobert made winning plays on defense. KAT was upping his stats on a garbage team.

why would brooklyn make that trade? filthadelphia homers are so embarrassing

>not taking the best point-guard in the euroleague right now

He's gonna win the EL in a couple of days, Sixers have his draft rights.

Nets like D'Lo and D'Lo seems happy with the Nets.

Anyone else notice that nu-Lakers former platers always seem happier after leaving LA?

PER and efficiency ratings are the cancers that are killing the NBA. It forces superstars to team up with other stars to protect their stats and their legacy. It also turns every player into soccer players.

What happened to the fadeaway shot? Where's the tear drop? Where's the 15 foot stutter step bank shot? Fuck this gay sport. They took all the artistry out of it for "measurable" "greatness".

>PPG determines who's better
Gobert is a DPOY who also happens to be one of the best screen setters in the league. He's regularly in the playoffs. The only way KAT's bum ass got into the playoffs last year was because Based Jimmy put the T-Wolves on his back and single-handedly dragged him there. KAT is a soft ass fucking wimp.

It's easier to live a happier life when you're not pressured to ever win a title and can just grow your bank account.

>implying nets will trade their future star for le "bring the ball up" man.
>implying butler isn't dipping for Clips, Lakers or even GSW to actually have a chance for a ring
>implying will be able to sign beverly
>implying anyone with Curry in his name is suddenly good
>implying sixers didn't trade away all their assets for tobias and boban for a chance to contend this year
They should have trusted the process and tanked a 2-3 more years as it was intended to actually win a title, not a feel good team that gets bust in the semis.

>winning plays
>on defense
lmao. what's that, 2 blocks per game or something? Kat was carrying his whole team in reg session because the rest of his team is hot shit. The only reason he couldn't carry them back like harden did is because the rockets actually have good role players.

>le only play defense man is better than a team carry!!
>implying being in the playoffs isn't a team effort
Glad you got swept by the rockets. didn't see gobert make any significant change lmao

you arent wrong
>Kat was carrying
lol

Based, he's unironically John Stockton for that Shitmonds guy.
Can shoot threes from deep, plays solid defense and on top of that he is a floor general.

...

>better than a team carry
where did KAT carry his team again?
