Playoffs thread

Bucks win in Toronto.

Lebron and George duel it out and Lance goes for 16 points in the loss.

Jazz trying to hold off the Clippers without Gobert. That would be an upset if they pull it out.

Utah showed why you sign vets. Take note Thibs. It's a man's game.

I told people Joe Johnson signing was a bargain. It sounds like he earned a bunch of his money tonight.

Edit: And the Jazz are one of the teams below the salary floor.

Him, Hill and Diaw were all very solid. Hayward tried to screw them out of a win but the vets wouldn't have it. It made me think a lot about our team.

Yes they do. I was curious what they got for Kanter and seeing what they have for draft picks makes me see now giving up the draft pick last year to get Hill makes more sense. They have GS pick this year and have OKC's lottery protected pick next year and are owed some 2nd rounders the next few years too. I would have liked to pick up Diaw last summer. There will always be some deals like that I think the Wolves should jump on them if they basically just have to absorb salary or even get paid to take the player on.

I thought he looked like Favors at age 34.

He's usually much more explosive and mobile. But he was a gamer. I don't know the last time he played 30+ minutes, especially in that type of game. He looked gassed.


[Note: What are the odds Thibs calls a timeout with 10 seconds left in a tie game in that situation instead of Snyder letting them play it out? I say 100%... unless he already had wasted those TOs prematurely...]

I've watched this clip from tonight of Doc Rivers answering a reporter like 15 times. Lol

I don't think we are telling Thibs anything he hasn't already known for years
