Murray vs. Mitchell has been insane all series.

I love the offensive explosions in this Utah-Denver series... but man, I don't think I've ever seen perimeter defense this hopeless before, lol.  The players suck at defense and are barely trying, and beyond that, even the schemes are nonsense.  In what world does it make sense to put Jordan freaking Clarkson on a red-hot Murray down the stretch?

Yeah, everyone is talking about the scoring (which is fair, it's been absurd). But the perimeter defence is YMCA-calibre. Just watching Mitchell and Murray do as they please

I can't believe the Jazz might be the next victim to blow a 3-1 series lead....

I continue to feel justified about my trade for Murray as the Magic in our 2020 Mock Off-season. :) I knew all along ...  ;)

Utah Denver series feels like an AAU game. Im kind of losing respect for Synder as a coach.

JM having his IT4 moment. Fools gold.

not sure where else to put this, but it is pretty awesome.  We are lucky to have Tatum and Brown.

Go C's!!!!

Here's the thing though:

- The vast majority of players prior to the 90s stayed in college till they were 21-22 years old.

- Most top prospects get drafted by terrible teams which aren't ready to make the playoffs.

Anyway, it's still a cool stat! TP! If you ask me, Tatum and Brown are the second best wing duo in the NBA right now, behind Kawhi and PG13%!

How likely do people think it is that Miami can knock off Milwaukee? That’d be a best case scenario for us, I think.

I was asking this about a week ago.  I am in the 'I don't think they can beat the Bucks' camp, so I was surprised that a bunch on here give the Heat a really good chance at knocking them out.

Well, I believe they have a better chance than we do.

The Celtics have no answer for Giannis. Theis + Timelord ain't tall/strong enough. Kanter ain't mobile enough.

Bam can't stop Giannis 1-on-1 either (nobody can), but at least he can slow him down a bit more.
