NBA Playoffs 2021

So much off-ball movement from Bucks and Heat. I wish we could do something like that. 

That great off-ball movement is doing the cHeat so well as they get pounded by the Bucks for the third straight game  .

Bucks have even better off-ball movement. Bucks have a top defense.

It seems like every playoff team has 5 guys off their bench that would all be better than everyone off our bench except TIMELORD. These teams are deep. DiVincenzo got hurt and the Bucks didn't miss a beat.

I picked Milwaukee to win the title, but I thought Miami was going to be a real challenge, especially after last year, but Miami just isn't the same team and the Bucks are not only a better team this year, but are just quite simply a lot better than Miami this year.

So even though the Heat hammered us in those 2 back to back games for the 6th seed a fat lot of good it did them eh. Getting caned by the Bucks, they're going out 4-0 just like us.

There's a certain schadenfreude to watching the cHeat getting killed by the Bucks. At least we have the excuse of not having Brown.

Milwaukee vs Brooklyn is gonna be good. But I think it's gonna come down to talent and Brooklyn has that.

I want to see Giannis dunk on KD

But Brooklyn is also incredibly suspect on defense. Asking Durant to guard Giannis with Blake Griffin as the rim protector could be a bad time. I think the series depends on if they get flamethrower Middleton or just-above-average Middleton.

Miami got worse. They lost their vital piece from last year like Crowder and KO. Not playing in the bubble might also be a factor.

Brooklyn has elite offensive talent.  Milwaukee has elite 2 way talent.  The Bucks are going to abuse that poor Nets defense.

Isnt KD longer than Giannis? Or is it close?

KD has verticality also

But Giannis will try to play bully ball

It will be an interesting series

KD is a lot weaker though, and putting KD on someone like Giannis runs a huge risk of getting your best player into foul trouble. We've seen it so many times with Horford and Brown on Giannis in the past.

Holiday on Irving will be fun though

Holiday's best playoff basketball was 2017/18 with NOP.  Holiday abused Lillard in a 4-0 sweep and then he had a strong performance against GSW in a losing effort.

Good call. People always talk about Rondo in that playoff, but in the Portland sweep Holiday averaged 28/7/4 and clamped Dame

AD acting like he just went a round with Mike Tyson. When did NBA players become soccer players?
