The NBA

My Sixers absolutely shit the bed, managing all of 13 points in the decisive fourth quarter when they flat out collapsed while Jayson Tatum had 16 all by himself. That was THE worst choke job by a Philly team on their home turf since the Phillies fell victim to Houston’s relay team no-hitter in game four of the World Series back last October. Now the Sixers have to pull off the miracle of winning a THIRD game in Boston on Sunday, or they’ll be ushered out in the second round yet again. Frankly speaking, I don’t see that happening.

Warriors and Knicks go home for the season, and we officially have a play in team in both conference finals

Just got an alert from Bleacher Report that the Suns have dismissed head coach Monty Williams.

That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but neither did the Bucks firing their coach. The Suns, even when healthy, were shorthanded because they didn't have any depth. And let's be real: they lost to the better team.

Also, the Heat are making the Bucks' move look even more nonsensical. This is an upside down playoffs year.

Celtics crushing the 76ers. No way they don't win. I see Boston over the Heat in 5 games. Outside of Butler, Miami has no one to compete.

I give the Lakers a better chance against the Nuggets. Still underdogs, but a chance.

Wow. Game 7, I've seen a lot of bad Philly beats but this one... inexplicable. Firing Rivers TONIGHT is a start. Up 3 games and you get smothered out like this. Yikes, self-harm is on the table for 6'er fan at this point.

If GLENN Rivers isn’t fired after this unholy debacle, there needs to be an investigation!

Man I cant get over that melt down of Philly. Good Gawd!

Tatum palindromed Embiid. 51 pts to 15 pts.

It is clear that Ja Morant has trouble learning from past actions.

He has once again been suspended by The Grizzlies after a social media post of him flashing a gun. Two months after he was suspended for doing the same.

UGH

[SUPERECWFAN1]

Its weird...with SHOWTIME on HBO Max streaming chronicling the showtime Lakers and Celtics rivalry at times ....were very close to them facing each other again. In the latest new chapter. Can it happen ? Who knows....but it will be interesting if it does.

That hadn’t occurred to me. Meanwhile, James Harden had all of nine points in 41 minutes. I think it’s safe to say he’s probably played his last game in a Sixers uniform, giving him a new deal at his age (33) and spotty playoff history would be just as much a mistake as the deal they gave Tobias Harris after letting Jimmy Butler walk. Screw it, time to blow this thing up.

It's still funny how Philly picked Fultz over Tatum. LOL

I know he got in trouble once before for a gun in a video. Here's what I don't understand though. Is it the flashing of a gun that's getting him in trouble? Because if he has a legally obtained gun and a license, then he'd be abiding by the law, no? Does the NBA have a no gun ownership policy, which I doubt because that would get challenged immediately.

At the time, I thought that was a good pick since Duke players had a reputation for being average NBA players at best, quick flameouts at worst. Who knew Tatum would break the mold and become an absolute beast? I sure didn't.
