playtowinthegame Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I'm really looking forward to this. I'm pulling for the Blazers to get in that play in game. The new Skinny Melo is looking like young Melo in that 15 jersey playing SF. Love watching Damian Lillard ball. Anyone else got a team they're rooting for to win and/or fail in these upcoming NBA PLAYOFFS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playtowinthegame Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 Much respect to the Nets...they had me on the edge of my seat tonight. Levert is a great one in the making. They got some good players who can straight up shoot. Toronto is going to have their hands full playing these Brooklyn Nets. As for Damian Lillard, he is without a doubt my MVP. He's putting a good Blazers team on his back and taking them to the next level. They're as much a threat in the West as anyone. Lakers gonna get eliminated in the first round. Book it.

I started following the Blazers games when they signed Carmelo Anthony due to the Syracuse Orange connection. I just think they have a terrific team right now and I really like their coach Terry Stotts - once an assistant with George Karl. I think the Lakers/Blazers game tonight is going to be a good one. If you got the time watch the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playtowinthegame Posted August 21, 2020 Author Share Posted August 21, 2020 Blazers stunk it up tonight. Don't get me wrong I give credit to the Lakers for stepping up and winning a must win game. Personally I've never seen the Blazers shoot that bad, and they had good looks. The "other guys" for the Lakers stepped up and Anthony Davis brought his A game. As for Dame's digit, he'll be fine. It's just a finger dislocation on his non-shooting hand . At the end of the game I was shocked at a stat espn threw on the bottom of the screen that read: "Lakers first playoff win since May 18, 2012. That's 3,016 days." Wow!

This ankle has been an issue for him the entire year. Serious leg injuries can end young pgs just look at Derrick Rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playtowinthegame Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 Celtics and Raptors are advancing to the 2nd rd today as they put the 76ers and the Nets out their misery. Macs have no chance without Luka. This series is over in 5. I believe the Nuggets will even the series with the Jazz tonight. Nuggets will win in 7 like last year vs Spurs in the 1st round of the 2019 playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
