2023 NBA Playoffs Discussion Thread

Heat are in good shape imo. Caleb Martin still hasnt broken free. Jimmy hasn't had a signature game yet. Denver's bench played exceptionally well due to a lot of errors by Miami and they still lost.

Heat really need to play from ahead so Joker has to feel pressure if self creation. When he gets ahead he can just sit back and play his game, but if you build a lead he can press his own offense.

I'd like to see Miami get Bam in more spots where he can dive to the basket instead of taking tough middy's, but that will probably open up the more shots the perimeter players make.

For Denver I think Jokic has to impact the game as a scorer from the jump in Miami. Put the pressure on early instead of playmaking and build an early lead on the road.
 
That worked so well for the Celtics
What worked so well for the celtics? I didn't outline some strategy for winning a particular game or series or whatever. I simply said that I, as a fan, hate to see the defenders sagging way off one of my teams players playing on the perimeter.

Also regarding the celtics and "it" (whatever that is) not working for them or whatever, I would be ok if my team finishes with the second best record in the league and makes it to the conference finals game 7. Its not the best result but it isn't horrible either imo.

Do you try not to understand things?

In this case, that would seem to be you. I was simply posting my opinion as a fan of a team that I hate seeing defenses sag off my teams perimeter players. You brought up the celtics and said it didn't work. wtf. I didn't say anything works or doesn't work or anything about any particular team. again, wtf?
 
Felt like the nuggets got a little bit better whistle in that first half, though I felt the officiating was pretty good overall
