According to the NBA maybe not such great D. NBA in their last minute report said the refs missed Tobias Harris hold on Allan that should have been called a foul. Sean Marks who was fined and banned for a game for confronting the refs in their locker room area for their lack of calls on Embiid ain't going to like this.Great last couple of minutes in the Nets/Sixers game with Redick and now Mike Scott knocking down 3s to give the Sixers a 11O-1O8 lead with 19 seconds left.
Sixers with a great defensive play trapping Allen in the post with 3 guys so he can't pass the ball or get to the basket and turns the ball over. Nets lose a heart breaker. Dudley got ejected along with Butler earlier in the game, both knuckle heads, you would think seasoned vets like those 2 would know better. People will now wonder how that would have affected the game if both were able to play, Dudley was having a good game until the ejection.
I said I thought the Freak has the perfect body to play basketball unlike the overhyped Zion Williamson. The dude is built, they should call him Giannis Adonis.
Don't want to come across as anti Zion but the kid is over hyped, even his height which is listed at 6'7" when he's actually 6'5". He's basically a post player right now and that's the one place the NBA still allows physical defense to be played which is the reason that is given that post play offense is becoming less important than outside shooting. My attitude is the same as Stephen A. he's probably going to be great or at least good but let's tone it down until he's played a year of NBA bball. Lots of areas he needs to develop including his body.I get a kick out of how anti-Zion you have become. Watch us win the lottery and draft him and then all your criticisms end up being spot on.
No sweeps in the WC. Utah gets to go back to HOU for game 5 beating the Rox 107-91. DM with a sensational game and 4th qtr including a sensational dunk off a slightly errant pass by O'Neal where he had to stretch for all he was worth to get his hand on it well away from the rim but gets his palm on it and hammers it through for what should be the NBA's play of the day tomorrow.Rockets have their work cut out to sweep the Jazz on their home court. Breaking the game open with a 15-2 run, DM scoring 13 of the 15 pts during this run. 91—80 Jazz 9 mins left.
Took a trip to Disney World, I had to record the Easter weekend playoff ....
The Philly vs Brooklyn series has great intensity, and their 4th game of the series turned out to be a war of wars. One of the best playoff games I have seen so far. Philly has all the talent, and Brooklyn are performing with team-heart. Phiily lead series 3-1
I was expecting to see a full 7 games played in the series from the Blazers vs OKC .. Blazers lead series 3-1
Raptors own a 3-1 lead over the Magics in their series ....
GS Warriors own a 3-1 lead over the Clippers in their series ....
The Denver Nuggets vs Spurs are an interesting series tied at 2 games a piece ..
The Spurs has postseason experience, and the Nuggets has young star talent ..
Experience vs Youth Talent ???
Boston swept the Pacers 4-0 to win the series ..
And tonight it look like the Bucks are gonna sweep the Pistons 4-0 .. To much Giannis !!!
And the Rockets are gonna sweep the Jazz 4-0 ..
The Rocs Harden/CP3 tandem are way to much for the Jazz tandem Rubio/Mitchell to slow down.
To be fair to Kenny he doesn't have many options to counter with Davis being out.Going to be an early night for the Nets if Kenny doesn't make some line up adjustments with this small ball lineup. Dudley guarding Joel is not going to cut it. Haven't scored yet with 6:20 left in the 1st.
