Both camps staying classy by trading insults via the Grizzlies' crowd chant of 'whoop that trick', a euphemism for a 'beat down' that comes from what a pimp does to corral an uppity prostitute. Beatdown, indeed. Flipped channels to check on that gane during Caps v Cats, said "da fuq?" when I saw the score. Also referred to as a hoedown-and I don't mean a country one.

goose Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Draymond is a man possessed so far vs Dallas. If Golden State wins, he will be why. Splash Bros are 1 for 10 so far Wiggins also had a great first half for GS, though I can't hear his name without thinking of the Carol Burnett Show.

goose Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Dallas comes back to make a statement in game two, putting up a 19 point lead on Golden State, and then finding themselves down 7 pts after allowing a 27 point turnaround. The statement? This thing is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted May 23, 2022 Author Share Posted May 23, 2022 Golden State's Wiggins just posterized Doncic, putting the Warriors up yen with six minutes to go. Warm up the bus. Oh, it's a Dallas home game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit I'm not paying much attention to the NBA playoffs, and certainly not the statistical analysis, but at what point during 7/45 does someone (coach? team leader?) say "Hey, fellas, you know what? Our three point game is not working tonight; maybe we should try driving the ball?" Or -- given that it's the modern NBA -- does Jimmy Butler turn to his teammates and say "Keep launching! We'll regress to the mean soon, surely!"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrubs aren't making up for Butler, Lowry, and Herro out or half functional. Friday in The Garden is going to be brutal.

goose Posted May 28, 2022 Author Share Posted May 28, 2022 Having dropped game 5 at home and facing elimination, Jimmy Butler is going off for the Heat.

goose Posted May 28, 2022 Author Share Posted May 28, 2022 Jimmy Butler, derided for laying and egg at home in game 5 - scoring only 13 points - exerts his will on the Celtics in the Garden and puts up 47 to carry the Heat to a game 6 win. Miami goes home now, where they can close out the series! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted June 3, 2022 Author Share Posted June 3, 2022 Curry comes out hot and sinks six first quarter 3s to lift the Warriors to an early lead, but lockdown second quarter defense brings the Celtics back to gain a two point lead by the break at the half.

goose Posted June 3, 2022 Author Share Posted June 3, 2022 And again the Celtics battle back and build an 11pt lead with two minutes left.
