    Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - 1st Round Games Discussion Thread

    I also thought KD played more of a facilitator role tonight and he did that real good, like he’s done in the past.

    But he didn’t play like KD so I’m confused as to why I’ve seen and heard folks say he played great tonight.

    I thought Bruce played “better” tonight than KD.

      KD over the past month or so has done a good of a job (better more realistically) at making those reads when he sees help/doubles. He’s always been willing to make those passes, he’s he’s seeing the better ones at a high level right now.

        Looking at how Cleveland has done against the Hornets and Hawks, I think both those teams have a good shot to beat the Cavs.

        Cavs are 1-3 vs Hawks (Hawks +29 in those 4 meetings) and 2-2 vs Hornets (Hornets +28 in those 4 meetings).

          So Kyrie will be fasting all month? Will be interesting to see if that effects them any going forward I guess. Would only be a few games.

            This is Year 2(as far as I know/heard publicly)of him fasting during Ramadan.

            He cooked this time last year while he was fasting.

              Yeah I remember last year and him being fine, just wondered if the payoffs would make a difference.

                A lot of guys have done it for years. They would have sandwiches on the sidelines.

                Bruce Brown starting drama? Lol

                  I like how KD handled that whole thing…

                    My claim to fame is a back and forth I had with him on Twitter when he was with the Sonics lol

                    He tweeted saying something like "Working on my shot"

                    To which I replied saying something like "You lead the league in scoring already. Gotta get those assist numbers up"

                    Well...he didn't like what I said too much (which makes sense now lol) and we went back and forth for a good 5 or 6 tweets a piece. [emoji41][emoji38]

                    I shared that I thought with the amount of attention he gets, facilitating would make he and the team better. Which he agreed with me that he could do better and will work on it. Then his assist numbers jumped the following year. Like to think i had something to do with that (y'all let me have this [emoji23]).

                    It was funny because years later after I had moved and made some new friends, one of them was like "Y'all I was on "TMagics" Twitter today and saw this fool had a full on conversation with KD"

                    Kinda mad though because I'm pretty sure he deleted it some years later because I can not find those tweets. Woulda been cool/funny to put them in a man cave or something lol

                      I think your Twitter timeline only goes so far back; try searching your Twitter handle with KD's Twitter handle as well
