This sounds like a rebuild is right thing to do. NBA I thought was cracking down on "resting" players...how much he making to only play half a season? And who's to say that will ensure he's healthy for the playoffs? Zion has missed to playoffs in a row. At some point it was it is...some folks jus aren't reliable enough to invest but so much resources and expectations in. First step in getting out of a hole is to stop digging.

Some women take pride in paying for stuff at a certain point in a relationship that is serious as part of asserting their independenceamd affection for you, especially if they had their own thing going on income-wise before yall met and know damn well they can afford it without even trying because they worked hard for it. Some don't.

Embiid with 33, Lowery and Harris with doughnuts? Oubre with more points then Maxey? Is this about to be Game 7?

Bucks need to stay healthy to know what they really are in the playoffs. They shouldn't be a first round exit. Man, remember when folks was wondering if that was one of the best 1-2 players on a single team, either could go off, possibly both at same time? Gentle reminder you don't win on paper, you win on the court. I second blowing up the Sixers. Suns, Lakers, too. I hear a lot of defense to keeping Warriors together and they didn't even make the playoffs. Don't be like me, stop being idealistic.

I'd ask what's in the water in Phoenix...but ain't no water in Phoenix... #HeatStroke

Ah, see to clarify, I don't think anyone felt they weren't coming out the East, I said that earlier in the thread seems like the path was ironed flat for them now. I remember saying last time they were in the Finals I didn't trust having a team with those kind of expectations with a coach that young and inexperienced. Them being so inconsistent at home in the postseason was a big reason why. Good for them they might make it back to the finals, but if they still wanna drop gimmies at home and barely be over .500 in the playoffs at home...they won't win the Finals doing that. Said that 2-3 years ago, that did look like same old same old, but we'll see. Rather see Knicks beat then as well.

It's too early to say they learned anything...if they hover around .500 in the playoffs again this year...yea, they learned nothing. Dropping that game 2 was a red alert to something we've seen for years from them, not an overreaction, more like "here we go again". Celtics completely overpowered what was left of that team...I'm not always right, but I'm suprised you already calling they provide folks wrong and they got at least 3 more rounds to go.

Are you really gloating about the Celtics beating the *checks notes* 8th seed in the first round after they lost their best player during the series? That's what they're supposed to do, not lose by double digits to this same squad without Jimmy Butler in Boston. That's what lead to this conversation. You don't get a goldstar for paying your child support on time... Knicks fan finally in a good mood. So happy for you : )

This speaks to me...

Exactly. We are closer to folks not having to be bothered with this nonsense to get a clearance anymore. Government Cybersecurity needs this rectified BADLY to slow lose of folks to private sector and frankly keep from falling behind nation states that could care less if APTs they harbor poof the magic dragon. Necessary step in right direction help get people our of jail for selling weed while all these damn businesses are popping up selling weed.

It's a 4 game series, yall could drop one by accident and still be up 2 games...in May 😏
