2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

Lakers prevented a sweep. Could they be the first team in NBA history to come back up from 0-3 and win a series? They did hang close with the Nuggets in the first three games esp in the first half of each game.

Even your other predictions would have had more chance of happening than that Sparz

No. Nuggets way too good to lose this series…lakers super scary in that scenario if they did somehow win this series.

True. Predicted Nuggets in 6. I think LAL can steal one in Denver next game.

Can we unplug you from the wall and plug you back in at this point? I’m personally happy the lakers won so I can go see them In person Monday. If they somehow win the game I will make a small fortune.

I'd love to see splits on who has held the lead the most in this series. How much game-time has DEN been ahead. How much has LAL been ahead.

This graphic came up in the 4th quarter last night. It has to be pretty demoralizing as a Laker player/fan, but at least they finally won one:

Lakers have led this series for 129:06 Denver has led this series for 41:53. Tied 14:07

I guess you can add 7 minutes to the Lakers lead time since they never relinquished the lead after the graphic showed.

Just unfortunate for the Fakers that those 41:53 minutes Denver led included the last second of 3 of the 4 games

Great games today. NY-PHI, LAC-DAL, MIL-IND, MIN-PHO.

Giannis and Lillard OUT tonight

This series is right there for the taking for Indiana

Sixers up by 2 at halftime

Giannis and Lillard OUT tonight

Pacers cheerleaders should take this game .

But this is the type of game Celtics blow all the time . Stars missing, Over confidence, not playing to win , same metal letdown.   This where great coaches work to prevent this .

I ll go with the underdog and predict Indy chokes

[Phantom255x]

OG, Brunson and Hart are gonna play like 46-47 minutes today, dang

[Phantom255x]

This series is so physical. As a neutral fan it's pretty nice but yeah I just worry when the C's play them especially Embiid, the guy is dirty but acts clueless just to make it seem "harmless"

[Phantom255x]

Brunson may be annoying with some of his antics but he's a joy to watch. 30 points so far and he's playing angry. It'll be interesting to see if Brunson can help NY steal this on the road, though idk if you can call it that when there's quite a few NY fans in the building lol (funny when Brunson steps to the line, you hear "MVP" chants AT Philadelphia)

Man, Embiid is on a playoff tear. Along with his dominant performances on both ends of the floor, he's getting away with murder every game. Body checking, forearm shivers, injuring several guys. The Knicks are not going to have many healthy guys left when this series is over.

Nurse is blowing this one for the Sixers. Should have rested Embiid earlier. He was gassed, the Knicks are pulling ahead, and Embiid still has not rested.

Doing us a favor for when we play the Knicks in the ECF 

But now comes the test. Embiid looks gassed and Brunson has 40+ now, Knicks up 5. Big stretch here

some people might say that the dominant performances are related to the getting away with murder every game....
but Embiid has looked way better than expected coming back from the injury.  it is his fitness at the end of games after 35+ mins that hurts Philly
