Topic: 2022-2023 NBA Season - Draft Day to Playoffs

[frequenzy]

pambihira tong Boston, natalo pa kahit wala si Embiid. akala ko nga tatambakan nila yung sixers eh.

[blue_123]

Crucial yung interception ni Maxie, wala ayaw ng Boston tumira eh.

[Tha_Mann]

It's like the Houston Rockets version of Harden that played tonight hehe. Parang walang sense of urgency ang Boston kanina, knowing that Embiid is not playing.

[vinci]

Low scoring half between Den and Phx.  Parang old school NBA e.

[synchro_01]

per Skip Bayless may tear daw sa knee si Embiid which will require surgery .  It is unknown if they will just resort to a cortisone shot and let him play.  Even if he does play, he will be hobbled by that injury.

BOS will win that series eventually where they will face the winner of the MIA vs NY series.

injuries sa playoffs games that made them miss games or affected their performance so far include:

Embiid
DFox
Giannis
Herro
Kawhi
Oladipo
Randle

[vinci]

baka ma add si CP3 jan sa list.  parang may groin injury.

Jimmy Butler as well.

[anya618]

mukhang 2-0 denver na

[synchro_01]

DeAndre Ayton is just being outplayed bigtime by the two time reigning MVP Nikola Jokic.

That and the almost zero existence of a productive bench unit for PHO. 4 points from the bench?   Good luck in going all the way to the finals.

Booker played for 45 minutes tonight. KD 44 minutes.  Even if they hurdle DEN, 2 series pa yan if ever they will compete for the championship.  By that time eh gulay na legs nyang dalawa.

[Tha_Mann]

mismo hehe

People who crowned the Suns as champs when they got KD are dead wrong.  This team seriously lacks depth.  The loss of Mikal Bridges in particular is a biggie.

[VenoM_Unleashed]

Masusubukan yung depensa ng Lakers sa GSW bukas. Sa series ng Lakers vs Grizzlies maganda interior defense nila lalo si AD, swerte sila dahil hindi naman ganun kagaling sa tres players ng Grizz sa tres na injured pa si Kennard, pero ibang klase itong GSW sa labas naman sila titirahan ng mga ito. I remember kaya hindi manalo Lakers sa Clippers dahil pina ulanan sila ng tres. Napag aralan sana ni Ham yung galawan ng GSW.

[synchro_01]

Isang player lang naman kailangan nila paghandaan dyan eh.  Yung pinaka maliit pa at that.

Klay gives out pedestrian numbers these days. So is Poole.  Draymond Green naman wont wow you with his offense.

Easier said than done though.  That small guy can just bury your team if he gets hot.

What the Lakers need to do here is to hunt Steph and make him work on the defensive end just like what the Cavs did when they bounced back from a 3-1 deficit.  Expect a ton of pick and rolls involving Steph's  defender and LBJ.  Steph then end's up guarding the bear.  The double will come....it then frees up a man for an open shot.  Kailangan mabilis ang pasa ng bola kasi the Warriors are masters of the switching defense.

Yup. Notice the trend for the 2 games?  Nakakasabay sila till Q4.  Then their shots arent falling na kasi pagod na.

Game 2 scoring by quarter:
 
Final
PHX    21   21   31   14   total 87
DEN    18   22   30   27   total 97

Game 1
Final
PHX    32   19   30   26   total 107
DEN    31   37   26   31   total 125

May ibubuga pa naman si Klay but more on catch and shoot.  Si Poole dribbles too much and lately is prone to taking wild drives and turning it over.  Wiggins will be key on both emds of the court.

[synchro_01]

Ang deadly sa Warrior is their Motion Offense.  Non stop screening, running around, handoffs etc etc.

The guards of LA will need to be on their A game defensively.

Maganda itong match up talaga.  10AM tomorrow.  Let's enjoy top level basketball.

[Bravesfan]

They also need to lockdown Looney who is dominating the boards this playoff and giving GSW a ton of possessions.

[thebat]

Go GSW!
Go Celtics!

GSW vs Celtics part 2 possible pa rin!

[thebat]

... and thanks Chuck for picking the Lakers to win ;-).

[vinci]

Sana gumana opensa ng Lakers. Parang di pwede daanin sa depensa lang ang Warriors e.

[raptor]

Phoenix gave up a lot of their supporting cast to get KD, I don't think it's a win it all team this conference ... they have to add personnel next year to be a serious contender

[thebat]

Delikado na amg Suns pag di na nakabalik si CP3.  Also, pag na sweep ng Nuggets ang Suns another blemish sa reputation ni KD for being swept consecutive years in the playoffs.

Yep. Yun lang hindi na pasok sa timeline ni CP3 yan.  He will turn 38 na.

[synchro_01]

They also need to lockdown Looney who is dominating the boards this playoff and giving GSW a ton of possessions.

Because SAC was ranked #21 in rebounding for this season that's why Looney looked like Dennis Rodman out there.  Wala ibang rebounder ang SAC aside from Sabonis and he plays with Barnes, Huerter, Fox, Murray.  Those 4 are not rebounders. They play out there sa perimeter.

The Lakers?  #5 ranked for the entire year but nonetheless this would be a battle.

Yung upuan ni Jack sa Cyrpto.com Arena is 22K per game or 1.2M Pesos.  Ganung ka mahal courtside seats sa playoffs ng Lakers.
