You're a clown. Shey it's Ham's fault Russell played like a bum in multiple games, Hachimura as well

It's his fault AD buttersoft ass brushed with MPJ and reacted like he got hit with a buckshot

His fault that Bron couldn't hit the 3 to win Game 2

Let's see the next guy wey una go hire nau. And the miracle he will perform. Coach #4 in 7 seasons

Shebi we will be here

You are the biggest clown I've seen on nairaland.
Defending a coach that make poor rotation.

You're a doofus. What does your dumbass know about rotations? See this Mgbeke feeling funky.

Better stick to your Up Lakers, Lakers will win this series even though they are 3-0 down posts and stop using lingo above your paygrade.

The team wiping your Lakers now are reaping the benefits of sticking with their guy that took 8 years to win, keep hiring and firing coaches every other year and let's see where it gets you.

Are these refs blind? Jones clearly didn't touch Harden

Kyrie is a bad man

Clippers getting blown out

You're just arguing to argue at this point. Holiday was there last season when they lost in 5 in the first round, as the first seed, so they had to take a chance. Few teams will pass up a chance to trade for Dame Lillard, no need playing Monday Morning Quarterback.

How can injury excuse not matter? Does Denver beat the Lakers without Jokic and Jamal Murray, scratch that, do they beat the Lakers without just Jamal Murray. The Bucks didn't have their Jokic and Jamal so why you think this is a gotcha moment is well and truly beyond me

If the Bucks didn't fire Griffin and hypothetically finish 2nd they get the Sixers not the Magic. The Magic are a 5 seed. And they don't beat the Magic or Sixers anyway without Giannis and Lillard so your entire argument is still moot.

I know you desperately want to be right but injury to Giannis and Dame has binned the argument anyway

You still haven’t answered why there are talks about the Bucks trading Lillard just after one season. Is that a coincidence or a justification that buttresses my position about the trade?

In the contrary while many teams showed interest, they passed on from a trade, leaving the Heat and Bucks and we all know Lillard’s head and heart is in Miami, he made it clear from the get go.

You are making my point with the Denver example. The Nuggets own the Lakers, in fact their banner should hang at the Crypto Arena until further notice. We have seen the Lakers get pummeled every time they played the Nuggets with the full compliment of Ajala and AD. Same way we saw the Pacers own the Bucks with the full compliment of their starting 5.

This win feels good for Kyrie. Some good press for the brother. Pure soul, crazy decisions, but good guy

A40:

Are we talking about same Giannis that hyperextended his knee and still played the conference Finals

This is only his second season missing the playoffs through injuries. Don't compare him to guys in their 4th year of service please

This is your MCM pretty much admitting he is now glass footed so I am not sure why you think otherwise.

"I don't know. Maybe I do follow a different pattern," Antetokounmpo said. "Maybe try different things. I don't like the word 'rest.' Like, if I can play, I will play. If I cannot play, I can't play.

"I'm for sure going to sit down and think about it, of how my summer is going to look like and how next year is going to look like."

"Usually I heal pretty fast," Antetokounmpo said. "Whatever happens to me, whatever they say [for a time frame], it's half that. I think this time it might not be the case."

Suddenly, all of una Dey love on my guy Kyrie

All of 'em young stars would avoid anything Los Angeles now. Why allow some washed up stars use you to bolster their CVs when you can do bad all by yourself and attract all the attention they are getting? CP3, Bron, Kahwi, Harden & Westbrook are finished goods. Curry has a lot in his tank but until he learns to use his midrange more & stop stat padding by chucking 3s, I'll call him washed too.

Roland17:


Suddenly, all of una Dey love on my guy Kyrie

Not me! Kyrie has one of the best handles I have seen in my life. I'm an handles guy. If Iverson is number 2 in my book after M. J, Kyrie is up there too after Curry.

Kawhi doesnt know how to spell shame. I feel like the reason Lebron has been relevant this long is that the next set of superstars refused to man up. They blame coach, they blame team, they blame media. Everyone but themselves.

Thats why I like the new generation. Proud and humble at the same time. Put in the work and stop expecting everyone to bow to your greatness just because. Even Beal dey talk about coach. Lazy man... i feel like these last 8 teams deserve to be here. Every game gon be good.

Roland17:


Suddenly, all of una Dey love on my guy Kyrie

Never hated the guy. More like annoyed at how he made it easy to pile on him. Bro has to own up to his mistakes. But you knew guy man was speaking his truth. Even if it was flat earth lol

Thunder are low on experience, so this is a good matchup for mavs i think

A40:
Guess we will never know. The point is Giannis injury rendered everything irrelevant. If the former guy was there and Giannis is injured they would still lose

Bucks are doing a poor job of blending their young players with the old ones and that's why Indy gives them so much problems. It's the speed, they're too quick

Without Giannis, they won 2 games, Without Lilard, they won one. My guy, no ifs, no buts , no maybes, With Giannis, they are beating Pacers. Already, beef is on the table with that stunt that Turner & co pulled by stealing the game ball, them fit drag themselves to game 7, them fit wound themselves, them go even fight, that one sure. Still, Bucks are coming out tops. This is playoffs not regular season.

A40:
Cavs vs Magic Game 7

Lol is anyone really going go watch that

I haven't watched any game in their series. I just reckoned it will be boring. No one special to look out for.

Poor rotation indeed. What the Lakers need is someone who will sit Lebron's candy ass down and not allow him handle the ball so much. He is stagnating their game play because most of the offense goes through him. He is taking too many isos, has the ball longer than he should and doesn't track back on defence when he loses the ball.

At one point in the series against Denver, He dribbled the ball off his own foot and then turned around and yelled at Prince about it. Like say na Prince make am lose ball. At another time, he was in pole position to catch a defensive rebound when Murray drove to the paint in front of him and Reaves. Reaves contested the shot, he didn't. He stood right beside both of them expecting the same Reaves who contested the shot to catch the rebound. When he didn't, he scowled at him. Who does that? He wants to play all offense and play no defense. He takes the glory when they win and shit on his teammates when they lose. You too dey here dey blame Darvin Ham because of the rotation. Yes I support you because he didn't have the balls to put Lebron in his place. LeBron has no business being PG at his age. When he pushes DLo out of PG position, what is the poor guy supposed to do if not to stand around and wait for crumb shots with no minute left on the clock, delayed shots because young Papa oldie is playing PG with his old arse moves.

Agreed on all points. Lakers should have used regular season to fine tune an offense that is not centered on lebron. Even of it meant losses this team has to keep game pace with the rest of the league

There was some really atrocious three point shooting from the Dallas game

Doncic - 1/10
George - 2/10
Harden - 0/6

Hehehe I dey laugh people wey dey marvel at him numbers. Anyone that really knows can tell they do not have the same impact that they used to. Inflation don set in

I love it. Let them keep hiring, firing and trading. What does that mean? No continuity,no chemistry and more Fuji House of commotion next season (if they're fortunate with injuries to even play)

He go 30 this year. Clearly his body is not healing as quickly as it used to. Sign of old age

However this is just his second season, the guys you previously mentioned have 3-4 seasons injured at this time of year

I watched the end of Game 6 quite interesting. Banchero and Wagner are interesting future prospects

The Cavs allowed Donovan Mitchell score all 4th quarter points.

Anyway they're both fighting for the rights to get destroyed by the Celts

Talks from who? Tabloids and Hot take merchants?

The same Dame and Giannis that have repeatedly expressed that they wanted to play with each other?

What's different if he went to Miami, They still don't go anywhere as Jimmy Butler is injured, their roster is worse than Milwaukee so what exactly gives??

I'm not making any point for you Mr Man. The Pacers are not Nuggets level #1

#2 The Suns swept their season series with Timberwolves only for the Timberwolves to sweep them in the playoffs. Regular season does not matter

Without Dame and Giannis the Bucks won 2 games forgive me if I believe a healthy Giannis and Dame wins the series

Since you clearly don't understand hyperbole as the dumdum you are. Let me play your game and inform you that a human IQ cannot be less than zero. Even for a severely ret@rded specie like you the IQ would still be at room temperature. At least 30-42

Na them ..

Nuggets don begin this their slow start nonsense again. Their halfcourt offense is not clicking at all, better try and get some transition buckets

If Anthony Edwards is going to keep knocking down these 3s this series go long or not

Wtf are Nuggets playing. They look scared to death

Nuggets playing like they are drunk.
