Play Nice The Official 2024/5 NBA Week 15/16 & 17 Thread

[Memphis]

its refreshing to see a poster acknowledging too many foul calls on the opponent.

That was for us I was referring too.

Just over the soft foul call and techs in general in the game, just completely ruins the flow and the game itself.

It is getting so out of hand that the commissioner needs to step in and do something about it.

Lead is a lead but not sure I wanna give up last shot

 

[Gak Attack]

Amen has ****ing arrived!

 

[hotchilli]

Amen has ****ing arrived!

And I thought that shot slightly earlier over Porzingis was a big time bucket!

 

[NSWCROW]

spot the western conference team determined to tip a top 4 spot down the sink ffs

 

[tigs2010]

Missed the end of the game. Stupid ****ing work

You can see this coming a mile away. Big Laker lead is always extinguished. they get lazy and complacent

Hornets even more lazy and complacent. Waited til they were 20 down to start playing. Lot in common with the Pels.

 

[tigs2010]

Beal cockblocking Jimmy trade. Funny

Ah so boston getting soft fouls called up them? Not against Houston

Both creatures of flight. So much in common

I was saying in general the whole NBA is like that not just one team like some think on here.

It is destroying the game there it is a massive reason as to why the ratings and viewings are down.

Amen is a ****ing animal. League MVP in his future.

Houston need a PG upgrade but hard to see where it comes from. Fox would be the one but unless they do it in 10 days time, hard to see how it happens afterwards.

 

[fidstar]

Klay with 7 threes in a quarter

 

[peternorth]

Another away game for the Lakers, and a B2B in that!

 

[Iceman!]

Fox to the Spurs?

 

[peternorth]

THE RISING STARS GAME (brought to you by Castrol). Effectively 3 teams competing for ONE spot in the ALL STAR GAME pool.

 

[peternorth]

Danger game for the lakers

 

[peternorth]

bronny james checking in.

 

[peternorth]

In things that don't surprise you....Anthony Davis is in the locker room.

 

[Borough Blood]

Faking it so he won’t get shown up by Yabusele. Understandable.

 

[DangerSloane]

So whoever jumped a bit early on Maxey ready to retract?

 

[Gak Attack]

What a putrid game of basketball. Don't think you can play worse than we did and still win.

Think that's four straight games we've given up double digit runs in the last. Still won but don't think it's a strategy we should keep!

We absolutely should be after Fox even though apparently we aren't.

I dunno. Every comment by Kings supporters seems to indicate they are happy with him going. That he can be lazy, is not a leader, and doesn't respond well to a hard-arse coach. Throw in the fact he wants a max and I am having my doubts.

 

[peternorth]

Could see the lakers losing it a mile away

You're a weird team in that you play a helter skelter style that mostly works for you.

Bottom five in the league for effective field goal %, bottom five in 2Pt, 3Pt and even FT%. And yet because you average 6 extra possessions a game due to offensive rebounding and turnovers forced, it often doesn't matter. Reminds me of previous iterations of the Grizzlies and Raptors in the past.

Be interesting to see how you go in the playoffs. Your D is elite, which should translate well. The offence might be more problematic, but at least you don't rely on one player like the 2001 Sixers or anything.
