    2023-2024 General NBA Season Thread

    Is there anything in KD's career that suggests he (let alone he and Booker jointly) will take responsibility? He's an all-time great player but this is not, imo, his strength.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    I take his point to be that we need to accept they will lose some games and some bad quarters and such are inevitable. each loss/each bad game/each bad quarter is not a crisis, and doesn't merit a full 'code read' That is pretty different than being fine with the Celtics losing the series...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    We can talk about the offense, but the reality is that the defense gave up way too many points. that's the biggest thing to fix. The offense created a reasonable set of shots--they scored 94 points even wtih some garbage time at end and an aberrant 3 pt shooting...with a whole bunch (5? 6?)...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    I expect the idea was to get control of the boards, which was killing them late third. It didn't work, but it wasn't wrong to try. He also is an energy guy---something else lacking. The least of their problems last night was plugging in Tillman for a few minutes to change things up. they...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Hopefully the number of posts about matchups vs Knicks and western conference teams can stop and we can focus on the Cavaliers? That'd be good---here, and for the team as last night it didn't seem like they were.

    5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

    That’s a ludicrous call. The Celtics have been awful tonight—-as usual officials at least as bad

    Tatum has 25 on 17 shots. Anyone blaming him is really missing how this all works. He’s not perfect but he ain’t the problem here

    5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

    They need to attack at both ends. So passive. this is still winnable—-get focused guys, just need to be who we are. not say the garbage of last ten minutes!

    5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

    We had a discussion about defensive rebounding proper to playoffs—-this is why

    Highly suspect call

    (2) New York Knicks vs (6) Indiana Pacers - 2024 EC Second Round

    I don't believe you can challenge a double-dribble call. Or a kicked-ball call. So part of what frustrated Carlisle was that in back to back games there were obviously awful calls made live which he cannot cause review of. And in one case they huddled and got it right and in the other they...

    (2) New York Knicks vs (6) Indiana Pacers - 2024 EC Second Round

    I agree---they had the right process game 2, even if the same team benefitted as the mistake in game 1.
