MVP: Jokic
ROY: Banchero
6MOY: Brogdon
DPOY: JJJ
MIP: SGA or Markkanen, can't really decide
COY: Mazzulla
GMOY: Pelinka Proud

Jokic is my boy, lets get that 3-peat. Banchero has no competition really, for 6th man everyone is saying Quickley but I haven't seen a single Knicks game tbh so I go with Brogdon because I like the Celtics and he's never came off the bench before I think. Lopez has been a beast defensively but JJJ had a rough injury plagued career so far so seeing him and the Grizzlies do so well won me over. As for MIP, I think SGA is the man because his numbers are outrageus, what a jump. I have given up on Markkanen so seeing him up there makes me happy.

I just loved when he was on the bench earlier. They looked great.

I hate that award in general though. It's a sham most times.

Trades were really effective at the deadline.

Every time I said something like this it always went to shit for Lakers.

Still no timeline for Zion's return, man's turning into a mascot.

And you are right. That Stojakovic/Divac era runs deep, but Kobe is the one who got me into basketball so there's that. I couldn't decide which team I support more, but Kings have murdered my soul for the past 20 years. Especially with Walton.

Blame our medical team, they're too cautious for their own good. He wants to play is cleared but they won't let him. Same thing happened with BI who was out 3 months with a bruised toe.

BI looks amazing rn but it took like 5 months to get to that point. :/ and we're at risk of being in the play-in because of this shit.

Gobert trade getting even better... Sent home for punching Kyle Anderson, ffs Laughing

I can't believe I'm defending the idiot that is Gobert, but if you tell your teammate "shut the fuck up, bitch" (like Anderson allegedly did), you've got it coming.

He was also vocal about Draymond punching Poole, Dray gonna have a field day with this.

Celtics-Heat and Grizzlies-Lakers could be the best series of the first round so i hope that happens

In 8th seed i grew some sympathy for the Thunder this season it would be good to gain some playoffs experience. Wolves and Pelicans been disappointing this season.

I rate Raptors more than Hawks and Bulls i think they can advance and... not last very long against the Bucks Laughing

by El Gunner Mon Apr 10, 2023 9:23 pm

Suns are lucky they got the Clippers... Warriors or Lakers would have bounced them 1st round. Now they can play themselves into playoff form. And then ease off perennial playoff underwhelmers Nuggets in the 2nd round.

I don't think disappointing is the word for us, we've just been hurt.

We've lost the 2nd most of any team in the league due to injuries. We were a no 1 seed when Zion went down, Ingram looked 100% the last 12 games and we ended 10-2.

That's without mentioning the likes of Jones, Nance, Alvarado all missing 20 games minimum each.

It's just unfortunate, it's not like we sucked when players were available.

Lakers and Hawks clinch the 7th seeds

by Warrior Wed Apr 12, 2023 8:30 pm

Big sabotage by Timberwolves these last few days huh

Wonder why they felt the need to suspend Gobert in a play-in match against Davis, for a brawl without any punch, the type you see every other day at practice Laughing

and McDaniels breaking his hand out of frustration what a mess

by El Gunner Sat Apr 15, 2023 2:04 pm

i usually suck at these, but here goes...

Nuggets v Wolves (Nuggets in 5)
Grizzlies v Lakers (Grizzlies in 6)
Kings v Warriors (Warriors in 6)
Suns v Clippers (Suns in 6) for some reason i have a feeling Suns in 5, but i'll be generous to the Clippers

Bucks v Heat (Bucks in 5)
Celtics v Hawks (Celtics in 5)
Sixers v Nets (Sixers in 4)
Cavs v Knicks (Cavs in 7)

by Warrior Sat Apr 15, 2023 8:13 pm

I've been trying to post my custom bracket without subscribing to any website and receive emails etc... but that's too much to ask in 2023

Just know my final is Celtics 4-2 Grizzlies. Could not resort myself to predict a Bucks-Suns final for the third year in a row, i got a feeling both their journeys end in conf finals.

----round 1----
Nuggets in 5
Grizzlies in 7
Kings in 7
Suns in 6

Bucks in 5
Celtics in 4
Sixers in 7
Cavs in 7

by El Gunner Mon Apr 17, 2023 12:58 pm

Kawhi turning back the clock to 2019, you love to see it. Awesome first weekend of playoff basketball, but we've already lost Giannis, Ja and Herro to injury

by Warrior Mon Apr 17, 2023 11:55 pm

LIGHT THE BEAM !! what a match that was

This series is gonna be damn close i think. Both teams don't defend the guards very well, the Kings will live or die by their strategy to outscore you, keep shooting and endlessly moving the ball. On paper Warriors have most intangibles going for them but they're coming off quite a disappointing season. Maybe they can kickstart their season right now, i have doubts on that. Kings in 7 imo

by El Gunner Tue Apr 18, 2023 12:35 am

Watched the full game, didn't really see anything that worried me that much. We led for most of the game, and had a solid 10 pt lead close to the end of the 3rd, then Kerr took out Steph and Kings went on a run. When Steph came back we were down 5. Had enough chances to win the game, just bad execution. Took 50 3s, missed 34 of them. We were in the bonus for last 6 minutes of the 4th, should've taken advantage of that. Malik Monk will probably not have a game like that for the rest of the playoffs.

Kerr should stop playing around, and make Steph's playoff rotation 12-6-12-10

by El Gunner Tue Apr 18, 2023 10:21 am

clear cause for concern after that performance...
we're getting out-rebounded, we can't stop fouling and turning the ball over carelessly.

First time Steph has ever been 0-2 down, first time Warriors have been 0-2 down since 2007.

Needless to say, we gotta win the next two in the Bay
