NBA play in tournament thread

[yamers]

Anyone that believes gsw or the grizzlies can come close to or beat the Jazz in a 7 game series are off their rockers. The Lakers just guaranteed us a trip to at least the western conference finals. I think we're going to win it all this year though.

clippers are very good

if we don't get past GS or Memphis we should blow up this team. Including the coaching staff.

Rudy owns Valanciunas. There was a tweet the last time we played the Grizzlies showing his stat lines and said try to pick out the game he played against Gobert. It was quite funny actually.

Hard to agree with you when JV had his fair share of monster games vs Rudy and Jazz.... In 19 games vs Jazz he played he outplayed Rudy in 8 games, 5 games they were basically even and in 6 games Rudy outplayed JV. So no, Rudy does not own JV. ...Those games JV had vs Jazz with 28pts, 14reb, 4 blks, 27pts, 7reb, 2blk, 22pts, 17reb,3 blk, 21pts, 14reb, 3blk, 14pts, 18reb, 2blk are perfects example of him more than capable of scoring vs Rudy.
Now the fact that Jazz owns Memphis is nobody arguing.

That 3 by LeBron though

I loved Steph’s reaction

Lebron is such a drama queen. Dude acted like he got shot on the disputed call last night and is shooting free throws three minutes later.

Strategically, totally get it as selling a flagrant gives them more opportunities in a close game. But man, he's a crisis actor for the modern day NBA of being soft AF.

CP3 is going to destroy Schroeder. Suns will make them pay for having to bring in Wesley Mathews to cover for him.

Schroeder was unusually bad. Out of rhythm. He normally guards Steph well.

Great moment

I'm so happy this isn't how the Jazz FO does things.

You're not wrong, but the tide has turned with that match-up. When JV was in Toronto he gave Rudy problems. But recently Rudy has owned him.

This year in particular Rudy clearly was taking JV out of his game to point where I don't think it's a concern.

Also, Memphis can't afford to sit JV for long stretches and go small like GSW can.

He he. I like this team but don't want first round exit. NBA is a business , jazz haven't accomplished anything. Buddy buddy is cute but the goal is championship or deep playoff run. We have to be brutal or else every year it's going to be like this, First round exit.

We haven't even played a single playoff game yet. What do you mean "every year it's gonna be like this, first round exit?" That doesn't even make sense.

And "blowing up" the team is not being brutal, it's being weak and stupid. It's what teams like the Kings and the Knicks do over and over and over.
