Pissed I miss this game (but thankful I can work again) but damn why is Bud still playing Giannis less than 40 MPG? Was he in foul trouble?

Can't really say you're saving him for the playoffs anymore...no reason to not crank his minutes up now...

Giannis was in foul trouble in the first half, but he could & should have played the entire 4th quarter.

Oh well, they gotta make some adjustments & play with a lot more intensity to start game 3. They've come out in a malaise during the first two games & they end up in an early hole.

Who gave Richard Jefferson a platform?

He’s now saying Giannis is a Scottie Pippen who needs a Michael Jordan.

I get what he is trying to suggest but damn the hyperbole for clicks man.

Get him, Kendrick Perkins and all those like them off of TV. Forever. They absolutely ruin what used to be a decent discussion of sports on TV.

Hahaha that's actually a nice burn lol

I'm trying to answer the question. RJ didn't win a chip until he was on the Cavs right? Height of career was for the Nets I'm guessing. Yeah total burn lol

Great comeback from Pip. [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]

The Bucks aren't out of this series yet & Giannis could easily go on a tear, but the holes in his game (perimeter shooting & no "go to" post move) need to be rectified.

How he is defended reminds me of how folks defended David Robinson, but way further out on the perimeter.

His first half foul trouble in both games didn't help matters at all.

The Bucks also need to get some more easy, transition buckets. Everything has felt like a halfcourt grind for them.

No but the Toronto rumors have started.......

Re: 2020 Eastern Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

Raptors wake up? Or Celtics put a knock down punch?

And Miami.

I’m extremely confident that the only way Giannis steps foot into Toronto to play basketball, is as an away game as a member of one of the 29 other NBA teams in the league.

I understand it needed to be done this way due to COVID and all of that but put me as a no on these garbage hologram ads. Get the real thing.

Re: 2020 Eastern Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

It is ok Raptors, you defended the Title to the best of your ability. Some even thought you wouldn't make playoffs or just barely. But you just don't have it.

Can't give your whole back to the audience for the entire segment, Draymond. He will get it over time.

I got some defense for this. There are only 2 court. Since the beginning of the bubble. There are only 2 court prepared for boardcast the games. So they are switching from one court to the other each throughout the day. All those ads have contracts with each team. They would be losing all that money because they can't play at home. So the only way to get it on the court. But not switch it. Is with the holograms. The games end and another game is starting right after. That would cause so many problems trying to either remove or change the ads for each game.


Edit: I'm guessing the NBA got approval from each ad.
