NBA PLAYOFFS 2023
 

Not sure how much traction an NBA thread is going to get with the majority of you probably being Wizards fans. Sixers with a huge win tonight without Embiid. Harden was so clutch. Got the Lakers making a statement. Knicks vs Heat 2.0. This is an old school race to the finish.
Go Sixers.

Go Heat! Jimmy Butler is my favorite non-Thunder player in the NBA.

Sixers never should have gotten rid of him. Absolutely love Buckets. He has a nagging ankle injury I think. Heat vs Sixers is a real possibility. Out of the four teams left we are absolutely guaranteed an epic Eastern Conference Finals.

At this stage, anyone besides Warriors or Lakers is fine with me for the championship. I guess I'd go:

Heat
Nuggets
Knicks
Suns
Sixers
Celtics
Lakers
Warriors

I used to love the Suns when Barkley was there and the sixers were irrelevant. Ainge, KJ, Majerle stickin the threes. Loved that team. You were probably like 10 years old. Lol. Can’t root for Durant though. I would love to see a Jokic vs Embiid finals.

Glad the knicks won. Want that shit to go to 7!

Well that sucked. Offense was flowing better without Embiid. Dude better be ready for game three.

Basketball playoffs are weird. Y'all got whooped tonight. But it was such a whooping between 2 equally matched teams, that I don't see a huge lesson. It's a throw away game. Go home 1-1, and try to go back to Boston 3-1.

the only team that can stop the celtics from getting to the finals is the celtics, they are seriously so bone headed at times it blows my mind

Equally/evenly was the wrong word choice. Should have said closely matched teams. I was just basing it off of only being 3 games apart in the regular season.

Looks like mredskins was right.

Celtics gonna give the 76ers the gentlemen's sweep.

It will go 6 or 7 watch, the Celtics just don’t have the heart of a winner. They will make it a series.

What is killing Philly is the every other day schedule

Are you a 76ers fan or Celtics fan?

Man the Suns are butter cream soft. Perfect team for Durant
