    Re: NBA Game Discussion Thread Apr 9th - Apr 15th

    First of all, let's pump the brakes a little bit. If someone drops 29 on you, you lose the right to say you locked them down on D. If they drop 29 on you when your game is on point and you're locking them down, then I shudder to think what happens when you have your off game against that person and they're blowing by you or having one of those nights where the hoop looks like an ocean. That's first of all.

    Secondly, how you gonna come in here talking like people in here don't play ball NoSkillz? Get that trash outta here there's a lotta guys in this forum that have played high school and even above ball not to mention rec leagues and just generally pickup games at the park. Fatigue doesn't have anything to do with a rolled ankle (exclusively anyway) cause you could step on someone's foot and roll an ankle. We don't know how Rose did it, so again, minute counting means nothing in this situation.

    Third just because he tweaked his ankle in the second doesn't mean Thibs should've hit the panic button on the minutes. Did anybody here even know something was wrong with his ankle at any point during the game on Sunday? I sure as hell didn't see a single limp or anything and I was watching his reactions and movements closely just to make sure the groin wasn't flairing up. Whole lotta brake pumping need to be happening here.

        How good was Iman Shumpert's defense on Derrick Rose in Sunday's win?

        Just take a look at the numbers:

        Shumpert was toe-to-toe with Rose for 10 of his 26 shot attempts.

        He forced the reigning MVP into eight misses and seven turnovers on those plays. Rose's two makes were from beyond the arc.

            I am Greg Stiemsma. I am a shooter.

            That was a great display at how good Boston halfcourt defense is.

                If Miami wants to beat Boston in a 7 game series, James Jones is gonna need to be the X-factor. When he is knocking down 3's they're unbeatable.

                  Ex, I know you say Spo gets more crap than he deserves...

                  But how many times do you get beat from trapping before you switch up your strategy?

                      Celtics could end up being the 3rd seed after being in 8 for a while, I think things are coming together nice bulls are banged up and the heat are not playing well (wades injuries too) I think we have a chance...

                        Still don't think they have a real chance. They're playing a lot better, but I don't think they have what it takes get out of the East this year. They can beat one of the Bulls or Heat in a seven game series this year, but I don't think they can beat both which they would have to do to get to the Finals.

                          It all comes down to injuries if rose is not healthy and the heat are not playing well we have a chance, to me all 8 teams have a chance to make it to the ECF....

For example there were quite a few of Derrick's patented floaters in the lane that he just laid short in there. Defense didn't effect the shot it was just left short. You don't get to beat your chest about locking somebody up when pretty much 30 is staring at you in the box score.
