Tatum seems like an individual talent who chokes in the most crucial games/moments.

Murray went 28/7/5 on 13-25 shooting and NT lost their mind. imagine if he went 1-13 in an elimination game lmao

At the end, Tatum decided the game with 4 3 pointers in a row

If the 76ers lose Game 7, the media BETTER go off on Embiid like they did with Jokic. Embiid has Harden. He has Maxey. He had home court in a closeout game. No f***ing excuses.

What's hilarious is there's zero talk about the Nuggets/Jokic being apart of a team that came back down 3-1 twice in the playoffs. I get it's the bubble but nobody else gets an * in the media for there accomplishments that year. It was an absurd accomplishment for the Nuggets that basically gets forgotten but LeBron gets his props/Heat as well even tho it was the "bubble". Media acts like Jokic has zero playoff success and when he loses without MPJ/Murray it becomes a narrative. Last time the Nuggets were healthy they made the WCF. Even insanely banged up we made the 2nd round the one season. Obviously we've never won it all but this idea that this Nuggets core/Jokic come up short in the playoffs is way overblown in the media. This is the first real season where it's championship or bust and they've done everything they've needed too. It genuinely feels like until the Nuggets win a ring that narrative will never change. Jokic blows Embiid out of the water in the playoffs. He doesn't get excuses when he's without his 2nd option yet Embiid get tons of room for error. It'll be Embiid is hurt .. but why didn't Jokic win a ring without Murray/MPJ lol

It'll be Embiid is hurt .. but why didn't Jokic win a ring without Murray/MPJ lol I think the "Jokic chokes in the playoffs" narrative got formed like this: - Jokic makes the playoffs as a 2 seed, downs the Spurs, then loses game 7 to Portland - Jokic makes the playoffs as a 3 seed, downs the Jazz, downs the Clippers (both 3-1 comebacks), loses to the champion Lakers in the WCF in the bubble - Jokic makes the playoffs as a 3 seed but loses his best teammate to injury, downs the Blazers, gets announced as the MVP winner ... - TV commentators start watching the Nuggets who they have never watched up until now ... - ... Nuggets with a starting backcourt of Austin Rivers and Facu Campazzo get swept by the Suns in the second round - Jokic wins his second MVP, making the playoffs as a 6 seed while playing with 1.5 legit starters in AG and Monte, and lose to the eventual champion Warriors who rolled through the playoffs - TV commentators stop watching the Nuggets, having decided that Jokic is a fraud because he went 1-8 in playoff games with fellow starters like Will Barton, Jeff Green, Austin Rivers, and/or Facu Campazzo - Nuggets just made their second consecutive conference finals when Jokic and Murray are both available in the playoffs. Meanwhile Embiid has yet to make one, though he does have a chance if they can win in Boston for game 7.

I'm surprised several want Warriors over Lakers.
Lakers are older and slower, their floor is lower. Don't have bigs that can guard Jokic (I doubt they let AD guard Jokic), a better matchup for both Murray and Gordon.
Our weaknesses are scoring guards, which is another reason to pick them over Gden State.
That said I'm fine with either. My first preference is the game to go to 7.

I guess there is no way LAL wins game7 in Oakland. So maybe LAL in 6 is best

I guess there is no way LAL wins game7 in Oakland. So maybe LAL in 6 is best Doesn't matter. You want that series to go 7. A game 7 is so f***ing draining and you're guaranteed to have an energy dump after that game. Whoever wins then has to travel to Denver, and play at altitude with 48 hours of rest. Have to root for GS tonight.

If there is one team experienced enough to manage its GSW, but i get what you are saying and its probably right

Imagine facing an old Lakers team after their Game 7, at altitude, Day-to-Davis no guarantee to stay healthy, and our guys get 4 days to rest and prepare.
Definitely have to begrudgingly root for GSW tonight in Game 6.
