NBA Season 2021-22

So many good young guys in Grizz and Wolves....

Both teams should have solid futures. I say should because of Minnesota's propensity for messing things up

I'm not totally sure I've ever seen Jaren Jackson Jr. make a shot.

He starting to enter Michael Finley territory for me. I know what the stats say, but I watch a lot of basketball, and I can't remember him every making a shot.

His jumper is ugggggly

42% from the floor. Very little playmaking. Very foul prone.

What am I missing about him? Is he really a building block? He's a nice player with some potential, but he seems very replaceable to me.

Defense will be the major factor for each team. You have to play it.

He's a great shot blocker and was a deadly shooter in his sophomore season. Not sure what happened to the latter... His first two seasons he was actually quite efficient (48.5/38.4/75.7). Not sure where that guy went

He's a great shot blocker because he jumps at everything, and has since his days at Michigan State.

Like I said, there's a lot of potential to like, but he's been in the league four years and seems replaceable to me.

The Wolves are better with McLaughin than Russell.

Memphis and Minnesota are simultaneously streaky and resilient; they string together good/bad possessions and never quit. When they get it right, they’ll be real Championship contenders.

The minute to minute ebbs and flows of this matchup make for great games.

Philly is out..no way they can beat Miami now

Yeah I'm going to wait to see the extent of the injury and timeline but if he's out for this series, then it's easy for me to say Heat in 6 or maybe even just 5 games. Harden isn't carrying the Sixers as the alpha

I’m betting Embiid comes back for game 3 with the Rip Hamilton mask. His eye didn’t look that bad following the game. Imagine it’s painful, but the swelling didn’t look severe, the hit was slightly above his eyebrow and away from the nose, which is good.

KAT throwing this game? Lol

End of game execution is poor.

Grizzlies should win but will get destroyed by the Warriors.

[Atzar]

This series has been a strange one.  I've felt like Minny has outplayed Memphis for the majority of the series but their inability to finish a game off has ruined them. 

[footey]

Round one officially over. No 7 game series.

8 teams left.

Including the Celtics.

I never want to see another trade idea sending him to the Celtics. No thank you.
