2023-24 NBA (Playoffs!) Thread: end of bench player on Knicks roster feeling self-conscious about not having crippling, season-ending injury (76 Viewers)

Dallas was probably the most brazen in terms of the ignore Giddey approach during the regular season

Seems like prosecutors may have them beat though

The Wolves slobber-fest and the Celtics hate has me now wanting Boston to beat the ever-loving-dog-piss out of the entire field.

They were #1 all season for many reasons. You have all been warned!!!

lol. I didn’t really follow the story at all. Was there more to it than the one Twitter post that had video of him with that girl at a nightclub?

Hey guys, be nice. I'm having a tough day.

I know we butt heads a lot, I hope that it is just a run of the mill bad day and nothing serious.

Dude

?

I thought it was pretty obvious he wasn't really having a tough day, it was just Nugget collapse related

My first thoughts were he just got home after taking his dog to the vet and got horrible news or his car broke down on the way to work and it was some absurd price to fix it.

I know you aren't our only T Wolve fan, but you are the most active in the thread o er the years. Are you planning on going to one of these games soon?

Have Boston rescind all 17 of their titles and have Tatum quit crying and we would all love the Celtics too.

Although the thought of the Celtics winning doesn't make me throw up in my mouth like the thought of a few other teams.

Idk man I thought the Nuggets would win this series but I can see Tatum melting down again while Ant powers up by mocking the Boston crowd.

This is Derrick White's team now. That guy can't be shook

After last night, my dog had it coming. Too closely related to a wolf.

I looked into it but prices are way too high. Nosebleeds are $300 a piece for Game 3.

I dunno man, I paid not much less than that for nosebleeds against the Suns and the experience was worth far more than that.

If you can swing it, go. Given that I am a Wolves fan and didn't go in 2004 (though I got to spend the preseason mini camp with the team which was awesome), I had zero experience being at an in-person playoff basketball game for a team I root for. It exceeded expectations. I'll remember that game for many years.

If it makes it back to Denver for game 5, I bet you could get two tickets and two RT flights for about the same price. Plus Denver is way cooler as long as you don't mind walking around all the passed out homeless.

Cavs showing some life

 

[Fruitbat]

Just poking my nose in here regarding attending wolves playoffs.

Got nosebleeds for game 7 vs the kings in 2004 off craigslist. Was AWESOME. But wasnt $300. Think it might have been $250 for 3 tickets.

Tried to get the crowd to start chanting "beat LA!", to no avail. I don't think half of them knew the reference.

I used to joke that I had been in attendance for every wolves series victory in the last 10..15..20 years. No longer.

 

[thecatch]

One of the reasons I loved going to Wizards games back in the day was that I could sit in the fifth row VIP section for a playoff game for $300.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

The PTSD in me as a Minnesota sports fan had me biting my nails and worrying last night when the lead was cut to 26.

As much as I’d love to see Denver make this a competitive series, that’s absurd Murray isn’t getting suspended.

Was it announced that he wasn't? Just a fine?

Ridiculous

 

[Kev4029]

Results based decision making, not intent based. If he would have hit the ref, it would have probably been a big suspension. Good thing he was off last night.

If a challenge will yield 2 points, you do it regardless of the quarter.

They should take 10k of that fine and pay for some tickets for our FBG T Wolf homers.

I don’t give a flip about the Celtics. I just like both the teams in this Knicks-Pacers series.

 

[Jayrod]

Derrick White out there playing like Tatum should be

Tatum has been rebounding and making a handful of good plays on both ends, but he has been subpar all game. Brown, White and Holiday carrying them.

 

[hagmania]

Wolves-Magic would have been better for the thread titles tho

The way the Celtics are built and as bad as the East it shouldn't matter.

It would never happen, but if they Celtics don't win the East this year they should just blow it up.

We are unbelievably getting there.

I'm going to just say what everyone is thinking...

Luke Kornet has been a revelation.

 

[ZADO]

Boston Celtics look like a team of destiny , so dominant

 

[Long Ball Larry]

I mean really, Do they give a Nobel prize for attempted chemistry?

Niang looks like one of the dudes I play against at the rec center.

This Boston team is pretty good

This Boston team is pretty good

They are, but I'm nervous how they respond when they face a legit team. Miami and Cleveland aren't whole and neither were that good at full strength.

Can’t imagine the pacers will be an issue. Knicks could be interesting.
