2023 NBA Playoffs Discussion Thread

So on the Hoop Collective they were saying that is a 'club' that is situated between the away team's bench and the away team's locker room. And ever since Covid (when the club was closed), players have been using that shortcut as a way of getting to and from the locker room.

I mean, how stupid is that? To have the club situated there and let away players walk through it. It's just an accident waiting to happen!

Yeah that’s insanely stupid.

Was there any mention as to why neither Marcus Morris or RoCo didn't play last night?

Quite frankly they both have been terrible as of late.

Interesting. At some point, the Clippers have to start looking at shedding some salary with how deep they are in the luxury tax and that they are or will so be in the repeat payer tier. They are both expiring contracts next year but they will save a crazy amount of money by dumping them into space (and the Jazz should be careful to preserve capspace next offseason so they can renegotiate and extend Lauri). Renting the capspace is not my primary aim, but it would be good to assess that landscape in case the other options don't break a better way.

I cannot make myself care about the Nets/76ers series. Even if we have former Jazz players on the teams.

It's pocket change to Balmer

Cam Johnson is playing great, I wonder what it would take to get him in free agency (he’s a RFA)

Lol the nets suck. I do like Cam and Mikal. But that team sucks. Their bigs are worthless twigs. Hit the weight room guys and develop an offensive move other than jumping high

 

[The Midnight]

Man the Kings are so much fun to watch. I really hope the Jazz can reach this level in a couple of years.

That’s what people say about most owners.

 

[The Midnight]

Man, amazing atmosphere here.. turnovers galore early on though from both teams. Guys need t settle down.

The way humans become billionaires is by worrying about the pocket change amongst 1000 other financial issues I'm too poor to have time to even know about.
