Your daily reminder that there is no such thing as a safe lead in the NBA

 

oh thank god I almost forgot. not sure how I would have gotten anything done today

 

20 years ago, if there was a 16-point lead with 3:41 left, the benches would get emptied (if they weren't already).

Today, that lead can be erased in 70 seconds.

 

because of woke

 

Also think the wolves just know how to game plan and match up well against OKC also. But yea coming back from behind down Donte/julius/rudy is wild shit

when Julius comes back leave his ass on the bench and give my son naz starting duties at the 4, dudes been BALLIN with everyone out, even Jaden has stepped up offensively

 

I’m sure this teams cap is a second round exit but they have had some good wins this year

 

Feels weird to even be talking about this as a Pistons fan but they’re a game behind the 4th/5th seed and I think I’d rather them have to play the Knicks in the first round. That team does not move me

 

Welp, today is the day.

 

Knicks starters will be dead by the playoffs

 

Wolves have a really impressive bench of young players. Great to build around, and also gives Wolves better chips for any future trade negotiations.

 

Still can't get over this photo

 

luka's over under is 30.5
seems low.

 

agreed

 

The Heat are a great representation of this

 

I am so happy we got De’Andre Hunter!

 

Ty Jerome: the new Steph Curry

 

Another horrible showing on national TV by Orlando. To be fair, it's typically because they're playing better teams. Which is at least 2/3 of the league these days.

 

With all due respect, the Magic are stuck in the 1990s. Attempting *only* 13 threes is criminal.

Meanwhile the Cavs have *made* 17 threes.

They’re playing an entirely different game.

 

go celts

 

They're on pace to shoot the 4th worst three point percentage of all time, so attempting more definitely isn't going to improve their outlook. They took a roster that wasn't great at shooting to begin with, and decided not to employ an actual pg.

 

This is the second time in the last five nights that the Cavs have been up by at least 42 points vs an Eastern Conference Playoff team.

 

probably lame as hell but I'm anxious about this game and pretty bummed.

 

So dumb that this game is tipping off at 9:06 central time

 

Go embarrass the Mavs
