NON-JAZZ NBA PLAYOFF thread

You can say "might" and "maybe" in front of anything posted here. You posted like 12 hypothetical situations above that seem to indicate you know how it'd play out.

KD might have helped us... but what if he didn't like it here or doesn't like Rudy... you don't know that we'd win a title with KD. See. I'm not gonna go there.

If Quin is dumb enough to not understand how this **** works and that guys like Craig tend to be more viable in the playoffs then guys like Niang... then I'd want to know that about Quin. Its something we can look more definitively at and say he had options. Oni/Brantley/Forrest/Thomas/Morgan have not proven nearly as much as Craig. If Quin is still that rigid then we should move on because he won't be the guy that wins us a title. We didn't find out because he has guys at the end of his bench that are likely not NBA players. (and yes we don't know they aren't.... I also don't know that Joan from accounting isn't an NBA player either... but Craig has already proven it).

The clippers are really good... part of the reason why is they are very adaptable and have so many options at the end of the bench that they can plug in. I always said the Clips were good. Assholes on here were talking about how it was a 5 or 6 game series at best... I was saying I didn't think we should be favored. I know they are good. We didn't give ourselves the best chance to beat them.
Exactly. Hypotheticals are hypothetical. In your hypothetical Craig helps us. I'm mine he might help us. Neither of us are right or wrong.
Then there are the non hypotheticals. The things that happened. Like Craig having a good game and helping the suns win in game one. And Craig playing less than 1 minutes and being a negative 5 in game 4 and not helping them win.
The bucks thought a player named cash considerations would help them win more than Craig

Weird that he would take more shots when he has THE Durant stopper guarding him.
Seems like he would shoot less with when guarded by the best defender he has ever faced.

Dude... he had to shoot. There was no one else to create a shot.

No one is right or wrong then... no one should post... its all a simulation anyway... you can't tell me its not.

Bucks dumped some salary so Craig must suck. Payne was in the G League last year so he must suck. Mann was a second round pick he must suck. Pistons cut Jackson and Blake they must suck... front offices nail this **** all the time. Lolz.

Individual plus minus in one game is a really tough measure... especially in a 1 minute sample. The guy could have checked in when someone was at the free throw line and gone -2 immediately. In the series he is plus 13. Niang was a -33. If you don't see a delta there between that and the other numbers then we are good here.
 
Are we really arguing for 8 freaking pages about Torrey Craig?

Hes a role player on a Suns team stacked with 5-6 2-way wing players.
We are... because even the stacked Suns thought it was a good idea to go get him and a few on here are like "lOlz We goTs NIAnGs and MiYEa... wE no NeEEds hElp"
 
I think the bottom line is that the clippers have shown and continue to show that they are a really good really will coached team that is capable of beating the suns even with Craig on their roster despite being banged up and exhausted and if things go just a tiny bit different in this series then the clippers could have beat the suns in 5 already.

I think we lose to the clippers even with Craig as crazy at that sounds to some people.

Would they have thought it was a good idea to go get him if they had to give a player better than cash consideration though?
