***THE OFFFICIAL BGOL 2015 NBA PLAYOFFS THREAD*** Who you Got?

[RoadRage]

Been saying that for over 20 years

To me the Knicks fall into the trap that most NY teams fall into, that is feeling the pressure from the press to win now.. Sometimes you have to let players naturally jell instead of trying to rush the process... I was a big time NY Mets fan, and the same shit used to happen to them were they get rid of players only to see them flourish on some other club..
In NYC if your team isn't winning right out the gate somebody ass is going to be on the hot seat, and thats enough pressure to make anybody play tight..

Do that shut and I promise you Barnes will kill you. He showed flashes in the last few games against Memphis and frankly, no one stops Curry, especially with Terry at your PG. Start shifting and playing out of your element is a recipe for disaster. Xfactor for me will be Dwight Howard who has to absolutely dominate his match ups and Green who will have the advantage over any 3-4 Houston can put on them. Harden vs Thompson is too much of a wash to offset the gap at PG and Hardens as plays no defense. There are no Tony Allens on Houston roster without a Healthy Beverly so I see GS backcourt going bananas... they may have to call in that bald a dude from Rocky on this one...

...GS is clearly the better team; J Terry will not be able to stay on the court guarding Thompson or Curry or Barnes; And who is Harden guarding?? Who is Jones guarding?? Clippers let Houston off the hook, GS wont; When you look at it, GS toughest test will be Memphis; It was a mental test; They are over that now and no team can consistently guard them thats left...

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Barnes entire career dating back to high school is about showing flashes and having people think he was at the brink of going off and killing the competition.

He will have a good show here and there. Thats it.

Harrison Barnes is just a guy.

In a short series all he has to do is show enough flashes to sway 4 games though... agree with your point though, but if anyone can turn this into a coming out party it's him, especially if Houston who are a notoriously weak defensive teams steps out of pocket to try to shut down Curry.

Yep, if Memphis couldn't stop their backcourt no way Houston without a healthy Beverly can. Hell, GS slapped them up this season WITH Beverly so...

Is Beverly coming back this series?

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Is Beverly coming back this series?

Possibly, but I wouldn't bank on him impacting too much especially initially. You don't shut down an offensive juggernaut like GS rusty...

i think he's a little more than just a guy. not MUCH more but he can be a factor.

Howard should dominate Bogut but bogut is in there for 6 fouls not for offense or even rebounding. they need him and lee to give them 12 fouls.

the interesting match is green vs smith.

i don't see curry or thompson getting stopped. grizzlies have the toughest perimeter defense on the western side of the playoffs. thompson actually overall had a piss poor series against the grizzlies his high in the series was 21 points that was about as good a defense as he's going to face.

Exactly...Houston hasnt stopped anybody in this playoffs; The Clips melted period; They were up by 19 at the end of the 3rd; Rockets hit a few shots and Clips froze; Does anybody think if GS is up by 19 in the 3rd the Rockets will come back and win????? The Clips should be ashamed of themselves; They shoulda closed the Rockets in Game 5; All this Clipper talk from these suppose experts after they beat an old hurt Spurs team was ridiculous...GS will win and I think its gonna be an easy series for them...

Is Beverly coming back this series?

It wont matter...

He can impact alot if he gives another Westbrook bodycheck to Steph bitch ass.

Thompson is self check these days. Curry, just gotta hope he's off or his rubber ankles make a cameo. Smith streaky ass can shoot over Green undersized ass. If Harden gets the DWade '06 whistle this can be a interesting series.

Curry gonna cook that rockets back court like Elmer Fudd was cookin Bugs Bunny in that big ass Pot,, gonna sauté them niggas wit carrots and broccoli

Terry on Curry? Man listen somebody eating and it won't be Terry

But let's talk about the Clips melt down.. I mean this will go down as the biggest choke job in sports...

Ridiculous...Doc should be fired; He is the reason they melted; They have 3 and a half players on their team..No bench, no consistent starter support and its because of Doc; Hes the GM and his moves have sucked; Someone said H Barnes is just a guy...No, A Rivers is just a guy...

I agree Doc should either give up the GM duties or Coaching but he has to give up one..

Man i wanted CP3 to get a ring. This was his best chance to do so. But im glad they lost solely based on Jimmy ho ass running his cunt mouth. Nigga wasnt used to winning and got beside himself. Same ole paper clips.

Ridiculous...Someone said H Barnes is just a guy...No, A Rivers is just a guy...

I said he just a guy. Because he is. And Doc still got a ring as a coach so lets not mention him and Barnes mediocre ass in the same breath.

Barnes is a 10 and 5 guy as a starter on a team he gets mostly open looks on. JAG. Stop wasting bandwidth on that passive ass nigga.

 

[Day_Carver]

He should be Coaching and thats it; but he not giving up that power so he will die with that ship...The Clips are salary cap strapped right now so they arent gonna be able to improve their team at all, especially if they give Jordan the max; And GS is younger and better; And GS has more assets to trade to keep getting better; Clips might be done...

I mentioned Barnes and Austin as comparison, not Doc, follow whats going on; And right now Ill take Barnes over any wing role players the Rockets, Clips, Memphis, Cavs, Raps, NO, Boston, Dallas, Bucks, Nets, more than half of all playoff teams...

I don't know. I think Thompson is due which is a scary thought.

Green is a pest though so will Smith stay in the game mentally and step up?

Game 1 will tell us what we need to know.

3-1 then throw away a game up 3-2 and up 19 at the end of 3 and now you're fishing.



Blake needs to be talked about

he always has fake points. you'll end the game he has 27 but he had 27 through 3 quarters and shit

To me he is the best points off of mistakes, guy in the NBA... The problem with him is that when teams bear down to cut back on mistakes he can't find a shot no where.
But let the defense slip up an inch, he is ready to throw down a dunk in your face.

 

[Big Tex]

Just sit and watch....

Yep. Let niggas tell it the Rockets should run away and forfeit. Golden state supposed to blow them out by 30 every game so let's just see.

Famo GS ain't the clips and besides Houston is the worst in offensive efficiency among the 4 teams left with a minus 40pt while ATL, GS and Cavs plus 30

Ain't no sitting back and watch Houston is the best matchup GS could have I mean it didn't matter if it was the clips but you got to understand GS was the best defensive team in the league.. Now put that with Houstons offense that shit ain't gonna be pretty for Houston.

Had the Spurs beat the clips then yeah they were gonna come out of the west..

No he's not, because its really difficult scoring 40 shooting the types of shots he shoots... But he wont need to score over 40 to dust those guys off..

Follow whats going on? Nigga how can i when you write like my barely literate nephew. Go back to grade 5 and learn how to properly construct a sentence and the proper use of punctuation, commas and semi colons. Your entire paragraph was about Doc. Everything leading up to the last sentence was about Doc and referred to parties by their first name. When you follow that with Rivers, it communicates to the reader you are referencing the same muthafucka!! If you were gonna start a new thought, about a new subject, who shares the same surname as the original guy... The least you could do was call him by is first fucking name. I cant read your empty lunchbox of a mind nigga. And i was on a phone so i didnt see "A" before Rivers. I saw "..." which communicates a continuation of the previous subject matter (Doc) and Rivers.

Now, that thats out of the way, I have to slightly disagree. Austin is a fucking bum. Less than just a guy. A talented bum. But a bum nonetheless.

 

[playahaitian]

^^^^^ snicks stay losing

Priggy
JR
shump
Moz
Ariza
Brew

and some got RINGS!!!!

for all of I. Thomas criticism go back and look at the players he drafter and traded for and see how their careers have done.

..Yo this is an internet porn board; I dont have to nor do I want to write perfect sentences; and im posting from my phon also so again im not trying to be perfect with punctuation; None of that matters though, the insults were funny though

Golden state is the best team in the league, they're supposed to win.

In fact, according to the world, you're supposed to get swept.

Rockets you have NO CHANCE.

There is 0.0% chance of you beating the Warriors so you might as well come out loose. I mean, you're going to lose by 50 every game. So you might as well have fun.

In fact, you don't even deserve to be on the same court as the Warriors.

Also, real rap, the league wants a feel good story, and with Bitchass Dwight with all his bullshit among some other things, they probably want the league to be represent by the feel good goody two shoes Curry, Thompson, Kerr types. I don't think its going to be an ass whipping, but I do know with full certainty Curry is going to roast them, Thompson and Green are gonna play bigger than they did against Memphis, and Barnes WILL be a huge factor! Dwight SHOULD dominate the big men, but outside of that it's a wash, and the talent of GS's back court is gonna put Hardens no defense playing ass on full display in the bitch! I really wouldn't be surprised if there are multiple 50 point games between Curry and Thompson...

Look at it this way... and I absolutely LOVE Curry's game. Who seriously deserved the MVP this season? A guy with basically the same team as last year, whose team for the most part was healthy all year so he couldn't be the total focal point of the defense, or a guy whose 2nd best player, and his starting point guard were hurt for a huge chunk of the season, and he still led them to what, the second seed?

The league was subtly campaigning for Curry and conditioning the minds of the general public for him as MVP long before the voting Bruh...

 

[THE DRIZZY]

Like I said earlier the Rockets will really miss Pat on defense. He is Houston's glue guy. I see Warriors in 5.

Well considering Curry wasn't recruited by the big time schools especially Duke and UNC that ninja been playing with a chip on his shoulder since those 2 years at Davidson where he got them to the elite 8.. He's made a lot of mofos eat shit and has become one of those players who is unguardable..

Dispite his pops being a legend on the hornets the kid had to work, shit wasn't a cake walk for him.. Yeah the league wants this story
