NBA 2020-2021 Season

[The Buscher]

Yep.  Total no-show from Randle.  If the team plays this well on Wednesday and Randle shows up, I think they can pull it out.

Pressure’s on though because I can’t see the Knicks beating this Hawks team 4 times in 5 games.

[gunnar hendershow]

Yeah dropping both home games to start the series would just be beyond deflating, especially for a young team.

[Pooker]

I'm glad to see Alec Burks getting some good run with the Knicks. Always had the talent, just couldn't stay healthy in Utah.

Look how they massacred my boy

[JasonM]

Lord, knowing that the Clippers tanked their final games to get the Mavs as their first round match up, to only lose their two home games quite definitively. That gives me life.

Also if it hadn't been for Richardson draining four clutch freebies at the end, Mavs would've had a higher 3pt percentage (52.9%) than FT percentage (54.2%)

[Pooker]

Man, MSG was rocking tonight! The Knicks having a deep playoff run without a true superstar would be great.

[The Buscher]

Very fun game, that 3rd quarter was something special.

New York is just dying for the Knicks to be good.  Linsanity was just a 7 game winning streak in the grand scheme of things but it felt like so much more because of how red hot the Garden was.

Today has got to be a record for most fans banned in a single day, right?

Knicks banned one, Philly banned one, Jazz banned three.

I know about the first two but what did the Jazz fans do?

Three Utah Jazz fans have been banned indefinitely after being removed from Vivint Smart Home Arena for a verbal altercation during the Jazz's 141-129 win against the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 2 of their Western Conference playoff series on Wednesday.

They were hurling insults towards Ja Morants family. I wouldn't call them fans. More like disgraceful pigs.

Boy, I'm sooo glad I have tickets to the Bucks-Heat Game 4. Wow. That will certainly be a game!

[gunnar hendershow]

Teams really need to stop grinding all regular season. Suns looks beaten down and it's only Game 3 of the first round. Gotta keep yourself fresh for when the games actually count.

[Pooker]

Jazz legend Mark Eaton has passed away at the young age of 64.

At least you got to see live basketball again?

[Benjamin]

Man, whenever I’ve seen this Heat team they’ve been fun like last season. Shame they went out, which is crazy that I’m thinking that.

Will this be the year Giannis doesn’t botch it?

He'll find a way. 

[livid]

Not this year! He actually trusts the team around him this year instead of in the past. I think they match up really well against the Nets too. Gonna be a tough series but I think they can pull it off (assuming the Nets make it past the Celtics at least).
