Re: NBA Playoffs 24

I expect the Pacers to get a game or two. I dunno about four of em. They can score in bunches but can’t defend. Agreed. Pacers have good depth too, but still feels like there is a talent gap between them and Boston. I'd be surprised if Boston didn't win the series tho. Obviously porzingis health is...

Re: NBA Playoffs 24

Teams really struggle to match up with Denver, but Minnesota had the right pieces to be a bad match up. Elite defenders everywhere, tons of length and versatility, and a few big bodies to throw at jokic. Just a bad match up for the nuggets

Re: NBA Playoffs 24

I'm not sure how anyone could watch the nuggets and decide Malone is a "stupid ass coach" The Timberwolves are just really good. They have a legit shot at winning it all. That defense is special. They have a bunch of dogs on that team and they play HUNGRYYY. None of those dudes have won a ...

Re: NBA Playoffs 24

Nuggets "whole plan" included a 26 point loss, a 45 point loss, and one of the worst 2nd half game 7s for a defending champion at home in the history of the league. Stupid ass coach. https://twitter.com/TheHoopCentral/status/1792390120857112940 Dumb comments by Malone and rainbows here. B...

Re: NBA Playoffs 24

The culture in Minnesota has completely changed. Edwards had a big impact on that. He lead a team to the conference Finals at 22. Took Jordan a lot longer to accomplish that

Re: NBA Playoffs 24

Michael Jordan, I mean Anthony Edwards, is 1 for 7 with 4 pts and getting blown out in an elimination game. This sure didn't age well He hasn't played particularly well. He's 6 for 24. His teammates are saving his ass. *he didn't shoot well. But he competed and did all kinds of things for them. The...

Re: Welcome Noah Shelby

He's 6'3 and can shoot. Former 4 star guard. Didn't do anything worth getting excited about in his first 2 years, but plans on redshirting. Could be a good college player in his 4th and 5th years

But yes, it's a stability thing

Re: NBA Playoffs 24

Not sure I have ever seen a Tom Thibodeau coached team play such apathetic defense. The Knicks are getting rolled in MSG in Game 7. They're just worn down. Injuries and fatigue. Randle, robinson, annunoby, hart, and Brunson all with injuries. That's a whole starting 5 lol Edit: and bogdonavic too

Re: 2024/2025 Lineup

I wouldn't worry about rebounding. We have a deep athletic team. These guys are competing for minutes. They will be fresh and competing for minutes. They'll be going after rebounds I don’t think we can (in the context of rebounding anyway) call this team athletic, particularly in the frontcourt. Hu...

Re: 2024/2025 Lineup

If we end up with him instead of Furphy, this team is going to have a lot of wings with size, and some real shooters. But the issue is going to be making up for McCullar and Furphy's rebounding. Per 40 rebounding last year: Robinson - 3.8 (Yikes) Storr - 5.5 Griffen - 5.1 Adams - 5.4 vs McCullar - ...

Horford is amazing. 38 y/o soon.
He really has been one of the most underrated players of the past decade and a half. All that dude does is win and play good basketball

Re: NBA draft

By measuring, 6'7.5" without shoes, furphy probably helped his stock, definitely didn't hurt. It confirms he's a legit 6'9 wing. That's perfect nba size for a player like him
