What's new

Playoffs have sucked

.....the REAL question is how can a guy who plays as aggressive and is as big and strong as Lebron is.....doesn't pick up a single solitary foul in 48 minutes of playing time??? Are the refs blind, dumb or just plain pathetic???

There was one play in the last game when the defender was backpedaling as fast as he could, and Lebron just ran over him. It looked like an offensive foul to me, but not the refs.
 
I used you as a metaphor for all the Corbin apologists out there.

I don't think I quite fit in that category but just wanted to say that, I believe everyone here would love to have Thibbs or Pop be the next Jazz HC. However before Corbin gets run out I want to know they have someone better in place and while the Gundy's are better I consider their previous employers firing them to indicate only marginally better. They are not in that elite coaching category, how do I know? Because they wouldn't have been fired multiple times.

My point is unless you have an elite coach the difference in all the average coaching is very minimal IMO.

well corbin sucks.

a bum off the street would ask less money and would do the same job for far less.

heck i would do corbins job for 4 years at 1 mill total.

and i would be better then corbin cus i would not say that it is just 1 game crap.

David Stern here.
I've seen your question and how DARE you question our referees. They all do a fantastic job. Perhaps you've heard of the old adage in baseball that a "tie goes to the runner." Well, here in the NBA, the call goes to the superstar. Do you really think people would pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for tickets to a playoff game only to watch a guy like LeBron, Durant, Duncan or Kobe sit on the bench due to foul trouble? Now run along back to your recliner. I only care about rich people who buy premium seats and corporations that purchase luxury boxes.
 
Another great game in Memphis tonight. Man, these playoffs have been enjoyable. This thread is so ironic.
 
Warriors suck.

Live by the 3, die by the 3. It was perfectly encapsulated in the final minutes of Game 6. Curry and Thompson both miss wide open 3's in crunch time and they lose.

if warriors suck and their season is considered a great succes.

jazz season has been a wasted one.

so that means jazz = suck to the max.


on another note.
i loved that pop sat duncan to get better defense to protect the lead.
if only corbin had done something similar a few games might have gotten us in the playoff

And he killed the Warriors with the corner 3. Garsh, wonder if that ever happens to the Jazz. Yup, Corbin learned all he knows from Ole Jer. And he killed the warriors by putting a blanket on Thompson. In the end, Mark Jackson got out coached.

Those were both rushed difficult shots. That's why they lost. Curry should have been playing more SG with Jacks running the offense, and the Warriors would have likely won.

That shot was easier than 80% than the 3's Curry has made in the playoffs and was a routine shot for Thompson.

atleast they made progress even though they lost to spurs they are better off the youngsters got valuable playoff experience.

what did jazz gain after last years playoff.
nothiNG
ooh wait millers got some extra cash

The Spurs had them figured out. They were punishing Curry on offense. He had to guard Leonard, Parker or Green. They ran him off screens and posted him up. He just got worn down.
 
I guess. I thought Jack sat too long to start the 3rd quarter, while both Curry and Thompson were struggling, but I see it was only 5 minutes.

This.

What's funny is if we could compete against the spurs for just 1 game the way the warriors did that entire series, we would have major progress. The Corbin bandwagoneers would be yelling at his critics to shut up. The warriors were awesome this year. If we can be as good as they are in 2 years it will be a miracle. Looking at this draft and the amount of holes we have... This next year could be fugly. We have kicked this rebuilding can down the road for 2 years now. The 2013-14 season might finally be the year where everything comes to a head.... Hold onto your butts... This ride could get a lil bumpy...
