2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

Philly is hanging around but it looks like the Knicks are gonna get this game.

[JSD]

Nurse is an idiot. How do you not make your team foul there?

[Who]

Knicks rebounding won that game. A 55-33 edge.

[jpotter33]

Limited overall offensive talent, but they play tough and kill you on the offensive boards. That’s the only thing that worries me about that matchup.

[Who]

Kelly Oubre played great D today. Fair dues.

How many games do you think the Lakers can get in this series? I say they get at least two.

Embiid clearly struggling with his knee. Slow to recover on defense and shot the Sixers out of the game late whenever he tried to post Robinson.

One, that's it.

[Who]

Lakers could have a chance. They played DEN tough last year despite D Russell being a complete no-show. If he shows up this time round, LAL could give them a run.

And Denver are worse this year with Bruce Brown leaving.

2. Not surprised if they get 3. They got some type of mojo going late in the season.

Philly is somewhat laboring. Barely hung on against Miami with a hobbled Butler and now Embiid might be a bit more hurt. Feels like they'll be put out of their misery soon. Even the ending of this game, the Sixers looked lost and Embiid clearly wasn't himself. They don't really have that "closer", which in fairness to Harden despite all his playoff choking, he was that for PHI a few times last Spring.

The scary thing is, Jokic doesn't even get that many calls or superstar treatment from the refs like Embiid and AD do. If he did, then boy...

I saw someone pointing out that Embiid had more FTAs than Jokic did this season despite Embiid only playing 39 games and Jokic playing 79 games.

Embiid - 452 FTAs
Jokic - 438 FTAs

Exactly. Jokic isn't going to the line like 20 times a game like some of these other bigs (Giannis, Embiid)

These Lakers-Nuggets games always follow the same script. Lakers start of well, shoot well, Nuggets at times look like deers in headlight, but then 2nd half they just flip the switch and know how to close. Feeling the same tonight. Nuggets are missing a bunch of very open looks too.
