NBA play in tournament thread

I think Green got away with one there. That should have been a flagrant 1 IMO.

I hope that doesn't set a precedent for Rudy's neck and face.
 
There was no way in hell it was a good idea to face off against the Lakers in 1st rd. I already had a feeling that the NBA did a shading dealing of booking a Lakers vs. Nets from the beginning of the play-in games.
 
CP3 is going to destroy Schroeder. Suns will make them pay for having to bring in Wesley Mathews to cover for him.
 
Is it bad that I want no part of either GS or LAL? Both teams have weapons that can give us matchup nightmares. Lakers? Obviously Lebron and AD. Their length and defense are gonna give us problems. They’re going to turn us over and get easy transition points. I’m not sure if we beat them in a 7 game series. Especially if the refs get caught up in bailing Lebron out.

Warriors? I see their athleticism and shooting giving us trouble. They seem to have endless numbers of role players who can 3D. If Mitchell isn’t 100 percent, I can see them knocking us out. Especially if Steph continues to be the best player on the floor. We desperately need michell to be playoffs Mitchell and dominate. Not sure if that’s possible seeing how he hasn’t played in a month.

I’m concerned. Hopefully the Grizz can **** things up. Otherwise, I can easily see the 1 and 2 seeds going down to the 7 and 8 seeds this year. Has that ever happened? Hell, I’ll be shocked if both Phx and Utah advance tbh. I think at least one of us is going to be bounced in the first round.
I chose to play warriors over Lakers. When I think of the jazz this year I think of high scoring, 3 point bombing hydra, and lots of blow out victories.
I think the warriors will allow our high scoring 3 point bombing hydra to show up. Sure they will be tough to defend. It's the playoffs.

The Lakers on the other hand might be able to slow down our offense big time. And they would also be hard to defend.

Plus I like high scoring games more than low scoring ones in general.

Plus listening to the announcers gush about the Lakers all series would suck.

Bring on the warriors (actually Memphis please)

See Draymond step over Lebron after trying to blind him on that play. Hopefully we can get out of a series with GSW with everyone healthy. F Draymond. Go right at him, dont let his mind games get to you(if we do play them.. go Memphis)

Helluva shot for Lebron under pressure. Even Curry had to give him a look. This is a good win for the jazz, I dont want to face Lebron until conference finals.
 
Yeah, what the hell was up with that?

Why were the broadcasters trying to convince me that shoving your fingers in a players eyeholes is a valid basketball play?
Ya I found that weird. Two hands to a players face with the ball like 2 feet above that contact. I thought it was an easy call.
Oh well.
