John Isaac may have only started 2 games during the regular season, but if you’ve watched Magic games it’s apparent that he might be the 4/5 best player on the roster. And he’s shot well from 3 this season.
Trey being a big time hater on the Magic and Suggs in particular. How do you not buy a guy shooting 39% from 3's all year on 5 attempts per game?
Love the show and watch every day! You guys make going through work easier!
Kidd is an awful coach. Nothing new here.
“What the fxxx they think they know they’re talking about!?!?” = “Who do you think you are? I am!!!”
Another Great Podcast Fellas & these games were great #NoDunks
You boys should absolutely write the number of wedgies for this record breaking season on a blank sheet of paper and do the Wilt pose whenever the playoffs end. Would absolutely buy a merch t-shirt of that moment lmao
Conley was not good either. Crunch & Conley. They will have bounce back games!!
I REPEAT…NO ONE IS WORRIED ABOUT PHOENIX. Idk how you’re surprised TK, the suns have 6 and a half legit playoff players. They rely HEAVILY on midrange jumpers. In 2024. Like cmon man get real
the only podcast brave enough to discuss a mascot's playoff performance.
Clamp-dusky??? More like calampbus, ohio
This could be the playoffs of role players that were awesome in the regular season but crapped themselves in the playoffs
1 year, 1 month and 4 days of being sad about the chances of a NO CHAINS disc golf podcast 🙁
Commenting for the algorithm
loved the Game 1 segment, keep it up dudes!
Wait.. Where's all the laptop stickers!?
Playback with Skeetsy was legendary
NBA stats can be pretty weird. Nikola jokic and Anthony Davis basically had the same stats for the game but Anthony Davis finished with something like a -22 rating. I'm not sure how they figure out these numbers but it's obviously not all based on offense. I know it seems like turnovers and how much scoring you're giving up to the other player but they both gave up the same amount of points basically to each other though they didn't always guard each other. Somehow the entire Lakers team, maybe minus a couple backup guys, were in the negative. Also if you're Denver you figure you can play better than this because they're three points shooting was not happening at the normal level that night and on top of that they went to the line like five times. I know that's always something that happens in a Lakers game because the Lakers drive to the basket a lot and they've got LeBron who gets a foul call if you look at him cross-eyed.
That's what loosers say. It's only game 1
Last time the lakers beat the nuggets they had AD, McGee, and Dwight to all foul jokic nonstop. Now it is just AD, who avoids even switching onto jokic. light work
Boston’s route to the finals is too easy. The East is too weak to prepare them for any western team. They are going to get wrecked by the nuggets if that is the matchup. Boston is praying Nuggets don’t make it through healthy.
People always want to push their narrative with OKC. All you hear is “but playoffs are different”. Then there’s a game that exemplifies that, and the Thunder rise to the occasion and everyone says “they should have won by more!” Like it’s a regular season game.
Best time of the year, baby
– Bond movies would be awesome
– Minions only speak one language: Minionese (to say "I'm hungry" is " Me want banana")
– even though the raptors aren't in the playoffs, former raptors (Lowry, siakam, norm, and Og) are making it fun to watch the post season for raptors fans
Fun fan Mr Brightside is massive in the UK! Guaranteed at every single wedding/ party etc. And most clubs will play it at least once a night. And EVERYONE will sing/ shout every single word
Skeets play back Sunday night was fireeeeeeee…..temper boy meet scotch boy…..meet Nora conspiracy boy! So fun. ND delivers classic from the factory and from the Play back too
NBA should feature you with a dedicated show 🤓
Jaxson Hayes should probably play 10-15 mins to at least give more rebounding and energy. He seemed to have some decent plays vs the Nuggets this year. Not saying it will make that much difference but it’s a wrinkle.
Magic should go after Anfernie Simons. I think he's gonna be available
Wedgie tracking reminds me of Sosa and McGuire getting to 60+ during the 1998 Major League Baseball home run record chase
I'm so glad you brought up the despicable me 4 trailer lololol
Great show today!!
Was one of the sickos in playback having the best day/night with Skeetsy. Baby OJ did it!
Also, buy Meh coin, its mooning
I’m not a gambler, in fact i despise every aspect of it – but i’d bet 10’000 on the celtics NOT sweeping more than one team at best ^^ thats just not them
didn't mark cuban essentially guarantee that kidd's job was safe no matter what?
