NBA play in tournament thread

I think the Jazz will beat the Warriors in 5 games. Putting Mitchell and Conley back on the floor gives the Jazz too much offense and depth for the Warriors. The Jazz have creators who can attack from all angles. Warriors will have to rely on hitting from long range with Rudy cutting off the rim.

Plus, the Warriors are a much better home team than road team. They really punch above their weight class when they're at home.

The Grizzlies played a tight game with Golden State on the road despite Curry going off for 46.

I am failing to understand why you find that less impressive than the Spurs getting beat by the Suns garbage unit.

Grizz came back strong and were up late until Horseface flopped and got Dillon Brooks his 6th foul. Grizz could easily have won that game without the refs riding to the rescue.

I like the optimism but think we need to give Kerr and the Warriors more credit for the improvement they've shown since early in the year. They really play defense, and when you combine that with the hottest player on the planet, you're going to have a chance.

This. If we end up with these guys in the first round that is a trap series to top all trap series. Could easily lose that one if we are not on our A-game.

I think Quinn has them thinking right. That is, not skeered of anybody! Its our year baby.

I guess I will be the one to say it (yes I am still bitter about the Denver series). The fact is this team especially Donovan, Quinn, and Rudy need to prove they aren’t chokers. I hate to say it but I have Zero confidence they will do anything substantial in the playoffs. I hope I am wrong, but this is shaping up as a bad match up for us. I don’t want to see either of the Lakers or Warriors.

That is true. Brooks was getting them buckets and shutting down Curry. I thought they would ride the momentum after Brooks fouled out but they were pretty stupid defensively, especially Morant and JJJ.

There is this one simple play with Looney in the post and Draymond up top trying to free Curry that wrecked Grizzlies because they never knew what to do.

Gonna go ahead and pencil IND to win this one. Up 30 right now.

Hornets tanked hard to end the season.

I think Washington beats the Celtics for the 7 seed and pacers beat the Celtics for 8th.

Things are working out real well for Ainge and Hayward.
