It would be tragic if Haliburton who rushed back from that Hamstring injury because he needed to hit the threshold to make All NBA - because of the 30 mil extra he would make being on it...

Ends up not making the team because of how drastic his play fell off because he's been playing hurt.

That would be the ultimate double edged sword.

nobody made him play. and ngl, he'd stand to make more just by being visible and active in a quality playoff run the way trae did...

there's more than one way to bet on yourself.

NAH IVE SAID ALL SEASON
MINNY WAS GOING DOWN
IN THE FIRST ROUND.

nikkaS REALLY BELIEVE
IN KAT AND GOBERT IN THE POST SEASON
OVER PROVEN VETS?


:devil:

I don’t buy this Suns shyt, KD hasn’t been amazing in the playoffs in a minute. Beal is whatever , it’s really kind of on Book and KD. Frank Vogel is also whatever

:mjlol: "Falls short every year". Tatum is the only nikka in the league expected to have multiple titles by the age of 25. For reference, SGA is the same age and JUST led a team to the Playoffs for the first time ever.

Oh, and the C's had the 13th best odds to win the title heading into the season where they made the Finals. "Fell short" though. Hindsight, goalpost moving ass clowns

SUNS ARE A MID, DISAPPOINTING TEAM
WHICH IS WHY I DIDNT WANT
THEM TO GET A FIRST RD LAYUP.

SAME FOR THE LAKERS AND WARRIORS.

PLAYOFF BALL IS A DIFFERENT
ANIMAL.

THESE YOUNG INEXPERIENCED TEAMS
AREN'T BEATING BATTLE TESTED VETRANS
I.E. MEMPHIS AND SACRAMENTO LAST YR.

they could get by with a healthy jonathan isaac or brandon clarke type possibly

but sabonis tucking his chain in when sets get tight is going to be a hill sac may never climb. he doesn't need to be a jokic offensively, but even fat diaw was more reliable in the high post than sabonis has been

I've never gotten so mad at a player like I've gotten in last years Kings vs Warriors series. Sabonis literally had a vagina in that series

Exactly. It's just disingenuous Celtics hate by the media. They can't just flat out say they hate the Celtics and hope they lose, so they create fake narratives. Nothing more nothing less
