    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers - The Danse Macabre

    Hield thought there was one second left instead of 3.7? That was inexplicably dumb.

    This is dumb. Going to OT with Embiid out isn’t that bad. Playing the foul game is the only way the Knicks lose this game.

    You have to do this I think.

    That was a goaltend. Super close but definitely a goaltend.

    The Unikornet

    My general understanding is Kornet stopped shooting threes to focus on developing his interior skills as he thought that was more important to his ability to contribute. You can’t do everything all at once. That decision looks like it was smart as it’s not clear he was a good enough shooter to...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    If the Celtics win this year, Tatum will be a top 3 MVP vote recipient next year. (This assumes he is healthy.)

    Asking his team if they want to keep playing or call it a season?

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    Show a player contesting into a player low on a practice shot. The position of everyone else here is (1) we agree contesting practice shots is normal; (2) we cannot recall anyone ever coming close to sliding under a guy to do it. If your position is that the second one happens all the time (as...

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    If our coach had impacted a player doing that he should’ve been ejected and suspended for at least several games. If he had slid up under a guy on a practice shot I’m not sure what the right penalty would’ve been, but it probably starts at like a 10 game suspension.

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    NBA players don’t contest into guys to block practice shots. Bam chose not to elevate to contest the slow release shot by Tatum well after the whistle but to slide into and under Tatum. He chose to do that.

    Eject Bam. That’s a flagrant if it’s not a dead ball.

    There may be a correlation between Tatum only taking 7 shots (now 8) and Derrick White scoring at will.

    SVG thinks the Celtics have only contested 1-2 of Miami’s 19 threes?

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    Last year, mostly make or miss. Game 2 was a combo of no close outs and above average shooting despite the wide open looks. Game 3 was a bit of bad shooting and good close outs combined. I wasn’t able to watch the first half close enough tonight but at 3/16 it is at least a combination of bad...

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    I don’t think that many would disagree that Horford is a better defender than Porzingis. He should take as much time as he needs to heal but hopefully it’s less than a month.
