I turned on a show when the Warriors were down by 13 with 8 minutes left to play. Didn't think they had it in them without Draymond and the way Steph was shooting.4/5 wrote:At least the Heat are being kind by humiliating themselves after I go to bed this week.

Re: NBA Thread
Idk. I'll admit that I've enjoyed watching Ainge overplay his hand and let his resources waste away, but the Celtics still have 2 absolute stud wings. The Heat screwed up because Riley thought he was gonna get Giannis. Or at least settle for a really nice consolation prize this summer but lord all that cap space doesn't amount to anything right now. The decisions to resign Myers Leonard and let Jae Crowder walk have aged spectacularly badly. There's been bad covid luck and injuries but Miami's offense that looked so good through most of the playoffs is unwatchably bad this season.bada wrote:I'd still rather be a Heat fan than a Celtic fan right now. Riley will figure it out I'm not so sure about Danny. This was the Celtic roster a few years ago. Irving, Hayward, Horford, Tatum, Brown, Smart, Rozier, Morris and a treasure trove of picks. Now its Tatum, Brown a gimpy Kemba and a injured Smart. No picks. No cap space. No moves to make. Just a large trade exception in a league now with a play in tourney so even bad teams think they can make the playoffs so why sell. It's dire. Oh and they play in Boston. You're in Miami trick.

Watching this Bucks team roll over on national TV is hilarious. Hope you enjoy that supermax Giannis.
