    The big toe of KD was the difference in the end. You can't blame him for that last shot as no one else wanted to step up. Harris had a great look for an open 3 but rimmed it.

        Shut your face hole 🤣

        First game starts at 0730NZT. Paul and Kawhi are both out. But Paul should be back for game 2 and the prognosis on Leonard isn't as rosy.

          But we’ve got Boogie Cousins to save the day 😉

          Paul coming back will be massive.

            CP3 is critical

              I want either Giannis or CP3 to win a ring from here, both are great blokes.

              Main thing was not the Nets or Clippers to win so we're halfway there

                Outstanding finish, and Phoenix draw first blood. Booker with a superstar performance and a 40 point triple double.

                        What a finish. Trying to work with that on wasn’t easy.

                            Ben Simmons is taking an absolute kicking

                            I've seen him passing off an open dunk because he saw the foul coming and didn't want to go to the line

                            In 4th quarters this series he shot 100% from the field. 3/3. in seven 4th quarters. That's diabolical.

                              Joel Embiid: "I'll be honest. I thought the turning point was when we — I don't know how to say it — is when we had an open shot and we made one free throw..."

                              Wow

                                You'd be so gutted if you're a Philly fan. Because you're almost certainly trading Simmons now, and you're only getting 30c on the dollar for him. All that after the years of the Process.

                                  Simmons is copping shit, and rightly so. But they all failed the test. Embiid needed to step up and carry the load, but he kept making incredibly frustrating decisions - taking deep 2s instead of taking it to the basket, giving away soft turnovers including one in crunch time.

                                  Tobias Harris also needed to do more when the heat was on.

                                  Embiid needed to be the alpha male, like Jimmy Butler was a few seasons ago. But I wonder if he's got it in him.

                                    @barbarian he’s 7’2 and he’s shooting fadeaways. You ain’t Dirk mate…

                                    Ben has lost all confidence on the offensive end. Once he passes the ball to the wing or whatever he’s a passenger. It wasn’t always like that but he’s had a very poor season offensively. Defensively he is still all-NBA.

                                    Happy for the Hawks. They made those moves last season and added one or two others and have a decent unit.

                                    Bucks in 4.

                                      ESPN reported that Simmons’ 34.2 per cent free-throw percentage through the postseason was the worst in NBA history from a minimum of 70 attempts.

                                        If the rumours were true the 76ers should have traded Simmons to Houston for Harden. He's gone from a centrepiece player to a defensive role player in one series

                                          @act-crusader yep I'm pretty sure I was talking about Atlanta at the start of the season when i said that I didn't see their off season moves as being much of anything, or words to that effect. Happy to be proven totally wrong on that one.
