I much rather play the Cavs. Magic got too many wings and bigs to much up against us
By Sharp Go To PostI'm sorry the Clippers have scored how many points this quarter?Is it zero? Feels like zero
By reilo Go To PostIs it zero? Feels like zeroIt's four apparently (with less than 5 minutes to go) but I must have missed them.
Hot take but the Clippers will lose every single playoff game where Jaden Hardy doubles Harden's scoring

Again, not saying Ham is an amazing coach, but...
Roster construction > coaching for the most part (as long as you get basic stuff right like actually playing your best players high minutes in the correct positions, which playoff teams usually do).

Of course roster construction is more important than coaching, but in close games the difference can be coaching.
Suppose the difference is Spo maximises his roster while Mazzulla just needs to put them in the right position. There’s also that sense that Spo is - perhaps sans Jimmy - the most important figure on that team, whereas the coach is never going to be that figure when LeBron is playing. So you need a coach that’ll appeal to his ego as well as work with him. If he doesn’t think Ham is up to it, that’s more important than if Duncan Robinson doesn’t think Spoelstra is up to it.

NBA app trolling me. It was frozen on the half time score from the Lakers Nuggets.
Checked the box score of the Mavs and Clips game. Must be nice to have double figures off the bench from multiple guys.

I miss Tom’s Watch Bar.
I don’t think Americans realise how insane a place like that is to outsiders.
I remember being a young lad and falling in love with ESPN Bar in New York.
America truly is the home for sport lovers.
Catching up on some highlights from the Heat Massacre and Bam is going to get away with literal murder on the court one day
They don’t call shit on this guy no matter how blatant

To be fair, LBJ teams look the exact same regardless of roster for a reason. JJ on his podcast asked Bron if anyone's ever tried to get him to change what kind of shots he takes due to analytics and he laughed it off. Can't tell LeBron shit. To his credit he's always been efficient but nobody is telling LBJ to stfu and run the offense x way.
Even Spo didn't really do it. I think Bosh was the guy who completely unlocked that offense with his versatility.

[Buha] "The latest I've heard is the plan is still to move on from Darvin [Ham] at some point, likely by the end of the week, potentially as early as tomorrow, then the head coaching search will start. I've already started to hear some names from different people." [15:25]https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/s/mTjdELHMqb
