Wolves looked totally dead in the second half. Nothing going to the basket, settling for all these threes, missing wide open looks. Really bad games by Towns and Conley.
By domino Go To Postgame 2 edwards shouldnt guard kyrieJaden can't guard everybody and Finch is certainly keeping him on Luka for game 2.
By You got 14 bricks right there? Go To PostLuka is the best player in the series and Kyrie is a better scorer than KAT or Ant.Is he though?
By diehard Go To PostIs he though?Yes?
By Sharp Go To PostYes?Ant's playoff scoring has been substantially better than Kyrie's.
also no history of going MIA in a series
By diehard Go To PostTowns being able to take 30 foot set shots is kinda crazy
Fill me in, my fellow muslim brother watching things out the work window to the east, my brother, to the east. Was this like an old school set shot, almost like a chest pass, that went in? I was watching the Yankees then on a video call with my mother, with every intention to switch onto Mavs/Wolves but the call ran long, but even then I feel compelled to comment.

Cam above the rim really isn't the best perspective, if we're being honest? You kind of need rim level shit from multiple rim level angles if you're calling foul.
By diehard Go To Postwell technically i was wrong after seeing the replay. His feet got about .1 inch off the ground.

You kind of need rim level shit from multiple rim level angles if you're calling foul.But from all angles the ref is an ass for making that call at that time. It was clearly coming away and the rebound was totally uncontested. Way too big of a call for a tiny technicality.
Didn't see the game live, preempted, just asking questions with my 3rd 4th and 5th eyes open and by the way the world is flat as hell. Recognize.
By Pac-2 Go To PostCam above the rim really isn't the best perspective, if we're being honest? You kind of need rim level shit from multiple rim level angles if you're calling foul.Pretty sure the Replay Center has the equivalent of Hawk-Eye technology to assist with this type of plays.

Way too big of a call for a tiny technicality.I think you want the ref making the call that way it can be reviewed and be corrected if it's the wrong call.
By jar155 Go To PostBut from all angles the ref is an ass for making that call at that time. It was clearly coming away and the rebound was totally uncontested. Way too big of a call for a tiny technicality.Nah the ball would have hit the rim again for sure and that's the rule.
Didn't this franchise fire Michael Malone for *checks notes* having a winning season after years of mediocrity? Hope he ends up an assistant on another western conference rival.
By Splatt Go To PostTwo seasons of winning basketball was too much for the Kings.
Return me to the purgatory
Tbf the original source of the article walked this back, saying that ownership's disapproval with the season-ending result may or may not have anything to do with Brown (and his ongoing extension talks). Whatever that means.
If Redick is getting into coaching, this (and Wizards? Did they hire anyone yet?) seem better starters than Lakers.
By DiPro Go To PostWow didn't expect this to go this way. Looks promising for the Mavs but a lot can happen.The Mavs' bad shooting luck was basically canceled out by the Wolves' bad FT% luck, so I don't think that's really a meaningful sign of things to come. The main question IMO is whether the Mavs can keep it up if Luka and Kyrie continue to be pretty much the only sources of offense and are taking a ridiculously tough shot diet. Even Jokic couldn't keep up his usual efficiency all series against the Wolves and he is the king of bad shotmaking.

Missed opportunity, would have been like having a WWE announcer that favors heels if he was just openly rooting for the Pacers.

The Lakers job is poison. They will not win and he will not look good. Ideally he would be an assistant for a few years before getting a main gig but if not he should take on a young team that doesn't want to win now. Anything else will just Steve Nash him.
