Negated by one weird trick found by a stoner coach: playing a lovely rookie in place of the league's second best player.

My only regret is that I didn't bet more (same holds true for the last Bulls/Raptors game)

Same. I don't even gamble and I did as a lark, should have bet my entire savings. It was a done deal! No chance!

Kibner posted:

They like him, just not for running the offense long term. They would prefer him as a big shooting guard paired with another guard who has excellent playmaking skills that he can work off of while also being a secondary ball-handler.

But he's not big at shooting guard? He's like, average to below average and would need to put on some weight.

wasn't someone on this board claiming that rebounding doesn't matter that much anymore?

those offensive rebounds just won the celtics the game

They don't correlate well with winning in general, but it's very clear that the Warriors specifically are vulnerable to being beaten by a team that can bully them off the boards completely. Even moreso now that Durant is out.

Y'know that ringing in your ears? That 'eeeeeeeeee'? That's the sound of the ear cells dying, like their swan song. Once it's gone you'll never hear that frequency again. Enjoy it while it lasts.

It probably helps that Portland seems to go under literally every screen leaving 3 point shooters wide open.

McCollum and especially Lillard are awful at fighting through screens so they haven't got much choice

Down 15 at the half.

Richaun Holmes is 8-12 and has 17 points 9 rebounds so far. Saric and Covington loving roasted them too. Their defense is an incredible combination of no ability combined with also not giving a poo poo whatsoever.

Jordan used to release the ball after the peak of his jump and it was always the craziest thing to me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsRu0x_bQeY
He could somehow jump in the air and then decide what to do which would lead to generations of kids thinking that was a thing normal people can do and loving up their games

throwing it up while you're falling is really really hard to do

He wrecked literally thousands of people's games. You can't do that if you don't have the most ridiculous possible vert and court vision, plus freak arms with double freak hands. The 2000s were scarred beyond recovery by a million lovely fade aways and hopeless jump passes

edit: he also traveled a lot but not the way people said. he didn't take too many steps, he often went up and down and released after his toes touched back down in the attempt to draw a foul
