2021 NBA Playoffs Thread First Round. Vale Heat, Celtics, Wizards, Knicks, Grizzlies, Trail Blazers, Lakers, Mavericks

[peternorth]

Welcome to the inaugural post COVID-19 crowd restricted NBA playoffs. The playoff picture is almost complete as the Grizzly bears are trying to claw their way to 8th spot in San Francisco. Winner to take on the Jazz.

So as it stands right now (22:47 Friday 21st May, USA Eastern daylight time), the Grizz look like advancing. But as we know, you can never go the early crow in sport (see Brisbane Lions QF in 2020).

The below image illustrates the bracket so far

Calwell Pope ruining Lebrons assists stats

THT is dynamite

Phoenix 12 FTs in the first Q.

 

[Westy Bogan]

Lucky to be close Suns....

Lebron getting his early stats before he thinks of Skip and chokes in the 4th... (As we know, Skip is always right)

Lakers look better when Davis plays the 5.... He is such a spoilt NBA brat not wanting to play it. "Pay me sqillion of dollars but don't make me bang with the big men down low"

NBA owe Suns after that series with Nash years ago...

Why isnt Chris being more aggressive?

 

[Westy Bogan]

Lakers would also have much more cap space for shooters if ad played 5

Injury

 

[Westy Bogan]

Warrior... Heard a crack... arm hanging off... had to wank with other hand... could not brush his teeth... could not feel his arm.... But here he is...

 

[Westy Bogan]

Put Lebron and Booker back on so I don't have too watch these scrubs stink it up

Dont you love it when lebron holds it, holds it hollllds it. then first a pass to a mate with 2 seconds on the clock?

 

[peternorth]

Drummond shades of Kareemmm!

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Lakers getting to all the loose balls. Hope the ball is checked for magnetic devices at half time

 

[peternorth]

Good half. Paul missing hurts the Suns.

He likes them to shoot without the pressure of wondering if they shoot or not.... He is playing 3D chess

 

[Westy Bogan]

Clips no answer for Luka.... Does Kwhai even defend these days?

 

[QuietB]

How good was LeBron's pass

 

[Son of Skeletor]

Mavs/Clippers is the better quality game at the moment.

Mavs/Clippers is the better quality game at the moment.

Leonard V Luka shoot out... Better than Lakers V Suns brick out

 

[Westy Bogan]

CP3 had a BBQ at his house to watch an NBA game.... What a leader!!!!

That must make me a leader too...

Harden's a better leader, he has hookers at his get togethers.
