NBA: 2022 NBA Playoffs

Kind of surprised at this...Snyder stepped down as the Jazz coach today. I thought he did pretty well with them (regular season maybe more than playoffs). Will be interested to see who they get and what's left of all these key players next season.
He doesn't see a way to keep them up there, I think it's that simple.

Agree. They just string this postseason out as long as they possibly can
They change it up from round to round. First round takes like 2 weeks then in semifinals and conference finals they get closer to an every other game schedule then NBA finals takes like a week and a half to 2 weeks

Not too surprised that team has no clear direction. Mitchell is good but supporting cast is weak. Gobert is so Jekyll and Hyde at times. There has been more than one occasion in the past playoffs where they were weaker at times with Gobert on the floor.
 
I was watching on a phone so maybe I couldn't see clearly but he 2nd potential Tech on Green looked just like a foul, which is what they called. I can't believe everyone is chirping so much.

This final schedule sucks IMO. the breaks are way to long I would like 1game day off 2nd game travel for 2days 1game day off 1 game. etc..

These breaks are long enough you forget the games are being played unless your really vested.

He left his feet laying on whoever he fouled (Brown?'s) head when they went to the ground. Brown was reasonably upset and pushed his feet away. Then they exchanged little shoves and words. All announcers and the rules expert Steve Javie agreed it would have been a double tech if Draymond didn't already have a tech.

Personally, I think Rudy is a "good" Ben Wallace. Defensively close to Ben and offensively better.
His defense is usually there but he doesn't have a killer offensive game like Jokich, Embiid, Giannis.

His legs had no reason to be draped over Brown, he had done the same thing multiple times. He was only trying to stir the pot all night, his first T was a warning to tone it down, they were too chicken to actually call his bluff after the warning. By the rules, he should have been tossed. Had this been a regular season game he would have been. I like the refs being flexible but it wasn't like this was an isolated incident. That could have easily been his 3rd or 4th T of the game and it was still the first half.

Yeah the Jazz have been good, but are one-trick pony running Quin's system. It's just spacing and jacking 3's, with a little bit of Gobert cleaning up misses and Mitchell occasionally breaking down defenses. They are the quintessential live or die by the 3 offense
 
It will be interesting to see what Ainge does now with players. Gobert in Robert Mitchell’s spot?
 
The Celtics can be so careless with the ball.
 
How I see this playing out:

Game 4: Boston wins and goes up 3-1
Game 5: Golden State wins an all-time great game back in SF. Boston up 3-2
Game 6: Closing out + Experience of GS prove a bad combo: Golden State wins in Boston. Tied 3-3
Game 7: There is no way GS loses a Game 7 at home. Golden State wins title 4-3 after being down 3-1.
