By domino Go To PostMaaaan I wish I knew this the first time I drove to Nashville.Everything between Chimney Rock and Nashville is invite only
I never feel shook anywhere in NC but I felt like I was being watched in bumfuck Tennessee 😂
By diehard Go To PostI know the Jazz won't go far but It's nice to be back to being excited to watch the playoffs. Wasn't feeling the bubble playoffs at all.There's no reason to think that unless Mitchell is actually out for the rest of the season.
By Branduil Go To PostThere's no reason to think that unless Mitchell is actually out for the rest of the season.They aren't positive Mitchell will play game 1 yet, supposedly the injury was worse than first thought.
Jazz are a good team with 2 very nice players but have exploitable weaknesses (especially perimeter defense and lack of athleticism) that don't really show up until a good coaching staff gets time to tailor a game plan for. Then they go through seemingly random stretches of not being able to hit open 3's which they are heavily dependent on.
By diehard Go To PostThey aren't positive Mitchell will play game 1 yet, supposedly the injury was worse than first thought.Pretty much every team is dependent on threes now, except maybe the Lakers. And the Jazz can't face them earlier than the Conf. Finals now. Memphis really shouldn't give them much trouble and I'd certainly take the Jazz over the winner of the Clips/Mavs series.

By diehard Go To PostJa gave us all sorts of problems this year, I expect a tough series and honestly wouldn't be all that shocked if the Grizzlies won.could be worse, just enjoy being the favorite in a series as a top seed and not dealing with the most annoying media hot takes and the most annoying fans. Like this epic combination of lebron stans added to the already obnoxious lakers fanbase.
No offense to the ones on here i'm sure it comes with the popularity but man is it ridiculous to hear some lebron band wagoner try to argue saying "oh lakers 17 chips we the best".

Like this epic combination of lebron stans added to the already obnoxious lakers fanbase.Look at the positive side though, if the Lakers win then the Suns still had a great season and have a good future, they just lost to a team that everyone had going to the Finals anyway. If they Suns win then it might be the greatest season since '93 and everyone loves them for beating the Lakers. I talked myself into it a couple weeks ago.

That's true, i'm just hoping the games are at least competitive, where it feels like we have a chance. Especially with it being Booker's first playoff run. It's like great we get to watch him against the number one defense in the league and AD curb stomp Ayton and the marshmallow frontcourt into submission.
I'm just putting this here as well -

LeBron is going to get covid probably mid second round or in the conference finals if they make it that far.
By diehard Go To PostJa gave us all sorts of problems this year, I expect a tough series and honestly wouldn't be all that shocked if the Grizzlies won.man we played 3 games in the span of a week none of which were close except for one were your team feel asleep up 20 in the fourth and not only that you won one of them a day after your entire team almost died. Conley will give us our gentleman's sweep out of love and we will all be happy.

Lakers fans mental gymnastics for why Lebron shouldn't miss game 1 is something else.
"The rules were written before the vaccine"
"Everyone at the event had negative test or vaccine card."
"Lebron doesn’t have to share his vaccine status with anyone but he definitely had it."
Silver would never suspend him even if he ended up positive at this point.
By Sho_Nuff82 Go To Post"Lebron doesn’t have to share his vaccine status with anyone but he definitely had it."
Getting sick of how we get to hear everything he does but this is apparently off limits
I’m torn. I want the Suns to win but then I also want to see LeBron test positive before the Finals and see if the NBA has the balls to have him quarantine.
I think outside of Lakers or Nets i would be happy for all the teams to win.
Okay maybe not the Knicks or Boston but only because of the fans.

Bron is a fucking idiot for being anti vax
Like the million dollars he pumps into his body is any safer
NBA would make him wear a mask if he got it to play and that’ll be his flu game

By aka Espi Go To PostI’m torn. I want the Suns to win but then I also want to see LeBron test positive before the Finals and see if the NBA has the balls to have him quarantine.why would you wish that on anybody?
By domino Go To PostIf Bron got covid, he don’t have itAfter Schroder was put in the protocol Lebron's ankle acted up and he wasn't even on the sideline for a week. I put my tinfoil hat on and told my friends "yeah, he is probably quarantining and he's lucky to have the ankle as an alibi."
They’d say his ankle was acting up before they suspended him
Now obviously there is no way to prove that, but the timing was p sus.

By Doomsayer Go To PostBron is so dumb.nba aint gonna suspend him lol.
At this point fucking suspend him.
By blackace Go To Postwhy would you wish that on anybody?People test positive and show no symptoms. That’s why half this country thinks Covid is a joke
Never said I wanted the dude to die from Covid
By aka Espi Go To PostPeople test positive and show no symptoms. That’s why half this country thinks Covid is a jokePeople also die from it, or give it to their loved ones and they die from it. It's a pretty shitty statement.
Never said I wanted the dude to die from Covid
having access to the vaccine and not taking it then breaking protocol is worse than wishing that same person to get covid
By post-sy Go To Posthaving access to the vaccine and not taking it then breaking protocol is worse than wishing that same person to get covidDon't agree with that.. but not defending LBJ actions in the slightest. You can shit on him without wishing he catches covid to see how the NBA would react.. ijs.
By Eduaraujo Go To PostCeltics Will shock The earth harden am cry
Celtics in 4
By post-sy Go To Posthaving access to the vaccine and not taking it then breaking protocol is worse than wishing that same person to get covidPretty much. I'm not going to wish covid on him but if he or any anti-vaccination person gets the disease I'm not going to shead a tear. And in LeBron's case him getting the vaccine and advocating for it could go a long way in getting the black population on board so in that regard fuck his anti-vaxxing ass.
By friskykillface Go To PostBubble Robinson backnah i doubt it this time
Bucks legit gonna get knocked out round 1 lol
Miami has about 10 other jerseys they can use that look better but they’re wearing their Pacer uniforms?
By friskykillface Go To PostCeltics in 4
I will be surprise if the Cs win one tbh
By friskykillface Go To PostWonder which team throws a max contract at RobinsonThey will regret it lol
Shooters are only great when they are underpaid for some reason
By Kuma Go To PostI will be surprise if the Cs win one tbh
Celtics only chance is game 3 if the fans heckle Kyrie and he goes full Myrie
Otherwise it’s most likely a sweep :(
