NBA Playoffs 2021

I think Ty Lue is ascending to one of the top 5 coaches this playoffs. I'm so impressed with his adjustments, and how he gets the most out  of every player on the court, in spite of all the injuries to their roster.

He’s a much better coach now than his Cleveland days. I can see why players like him so much, seems very genuine.

Ironic that so many on this blog want the C's to get a big PG because Kemba was a 6 ft tall defensive liability, yet two of the team's in the Conference Finals are led by, you guessed it, 6 foot tall PGs.

Reggie Jackson is 6’2”, 210Lbs and has a 7’ wingspan.  Shot 45% from the field and 43% from 3pt this season. CP3 was nearly a 50/40/90 player this season. He’s a nine time NBA All-Defensive player and a top 5 point guard of all time. Both are Superior defensively and overall better players. Have you noticed how neither team is singling out Reggie or CP3 like Miami did with Kemba? There’s a reason for that.

But It wasn't Kemba's fault that they lost.

This is like an old-school game. So much physicality and with low scoring.

Never read anyone say they wanted a big PG. Folks want a playmaking PG. Kemba is a shoot first PG. Rondo is a small PG, folks did not have a problem with his game.

I hear he was an assistant coach in Cleveland.

i read plenty about wanting a bigger point guard, but i agree, we need a playmaking pg...how about a big playmaking PG lol

Every time there's an offensive rebound in a close game like this, I think of how great a rule change it was to limit the shot clock to 14 on an offensive rebound.  That was a great move by the powers that be.  Definitely makes the game better I think.

Don't understand Phoenix's use of a timeout.

[PAOBoston]

Why didn’t they review that? They literally replayed that same exact situation in the other game.

[Ogaju]

lol that was off Payne.

Why didn’t they review that?

Officials are so terrible. Also, how you going to let CP3 get the ball from a side out???... he’s 93% from the line!
