Miami Heat Win Game 7 And Jaylen Brown Should Be Arrested
Tumblr media
That game 7, was just the perfect embodiment and manifestation of everything I’ve come to hate about the 2023 post season.
Help me understand something, how is it that Boston has a player that’s bout to make 161 million dollars, and bro bro cannot drive to the rim without turning the ball over?
That was the most disgusting game you will ever see from a multipile-time, all star player. That man literally sold the game. Jaylen Brown should be under investigation for points-shaving. Bro you can go to your driveway right now, play ball with your kids, and I garauntee you, your kids won’t have 8 turnovers. 8 turnovers is a near impossible number and even the most ball hog, high-usage type players will pretty much never do that s###.
Jaylen Brown should be under investigation by at least 3 of the top law enforcement entities in the country. Yo,his play throughout that whole game was flat-out SCANDALOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!
This man literally cried before the playoffs about the sacrifices he made, about playing 2nd fiddle and about the city of Boston, and he talked all that just to come through with multiple lack lustre playoff performances. 
Yes, the Miami Heat deserve some credit, and yes I was wrong once again, because I thought the Heat would do us all a favor and die mercifully, but Jayson Tatum rolls his ankle at the beginning of the game and then JB starts pretending he’s never dribbled an NBA basketball before, so how much praise do I really give them?
You tell me the last time you saw a star player turn it over 8 times in a single game?
The Celtics will have some very tough decisions to make this off season and none of them are made easier by the type of play you saw from Brown last night.

Que nenhum time nunca virou um 3 a 0, você já sabe, mas isso é uma realidade só da NBA. Nas outras ligas norte-americanas que têm confrontos melhor-de-7 isso já rolou: no hockey, uma virada de 3 a 0 já aconteceu quatro vezes e, no beisebol, uma. 
Na NBA, o mais perto foram casos como o do Boston: depois da franquia estar perdendo por 3 a 0, ela empata a série, mas não consegue concretizar a vitória. Imagine a frustração! Morrer na praia depois de uma recuperação incrível. O Celtics se tornou a quarta franquia da história a passar por tal situação. Você sabe quais foram as outras?
Tumblr media
No caso mais recente, ocorrido em 2003, Dallas Mavericks e Portland Trail Blazers se encontraram no primeiro round dos playoffs e o time favorito se impôs rapidamente. A dupla Nowitzki e Nash dominou as três primeiras partidas, com destaque pro ala-pivô alemão, que teve média de 37 pontos nesses três confrontos. Mas aquele time do Portland, que ficou “carinhosamente” conhecido como Jail Blazers, em referência aos seus muitos integrantes que tiveram passagens pela polícia, não se rendeu facilmente. Com grandes aparições de Rasheed Wallace, Damon Stoudamire e Zach Randolph a equipe empatou a série em 3 a 3, mas acabou subjugada no sétimo confronto, no que marcou o fim da era dos Jail Blazers em Portland.
Tumblr media
Em 1994, nas semi-finais de conferência, Denver Nuggets e Utah Jazz se encontraram e a equipe de Utah quase varreu o time de Denver. Depois de abrir 3 a 0 na série, a equipe perdeu o jogo 4 por um ponto. O Denver respirou aliviado por não ter sido varrido, mas foi além: pegou impulso e venceu três partidas seguidas, com grandes aparições de Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, Reggie Williams, Laphonso Ellis e Dikembe Mutombo, que teve média de mais de 5 tocos por partida na série. Mas não teve jeito, no fim, a lendária dupla Karl Malone e John Stockton prevaleceu no jogo 7.
Tumblr media
O primeiro caso da história no qual ocorreu um empate depois de um 3 a 0 foi também o mais dramático porque, imagine você, ele aconteceu nas finais. E aconteceu justamente com o time do New York Knicks! Sim, o sofrimento do torcedor de Nova Iorque é tão antigo quanto a própria liga. As finais de 1951, há 72 anos, foram entre Knicks e Rochester Royals. O time de Rochester abriu 3 a 0, a equipe de Nova Iorque empatou e chegou muito perto de concretizar o sonho da virada, perdendo a última partida por apenas quatro pontos. Os Royals acabaram conquistando o título, que permanece sendo o único da história da franquia, que hoje em dia se chama Sacramento Kings.
Tumblr media
De todos esses casos, é interessante notar que o time de melhor campanha na temporada regular sempre foi o que abriu 3 a 0, cedeu o empate e acabou concretizando a vitória no fim. A única equipe de pior campanha na temporada regular a ter passado por essa mesma situação foi o Miami Heat deste ano, que também se tornou o segundo oitavo colocado a chegar numa final de NBA na história (o outro foi o Knicks em 1999).
Estamos acompanhando uma campanha realmente histórica do Heat, que saiu do play-in para estar quase chegando lá. Agora, a batalha de Jimmy Butler e sua turma também será a mais difícil de todas: a batalha contra morrer na praia.
p.s.: esse confronto Denver x Miami já rendeu uma das melhores fotos da história da NBA. Será que também vai render uma das melhores séries?

Where To Watch Warriors vs. Kings Live: Time, Channel, Game 3 Streaming Info
Another recreation, another Sacramento victory. De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis scored 24 factors apiece and Davion Mitchell and Malik Monk mixed for 32 off the bench because the Sacramento Kings head to the Chase Center up 2-0 on this (*3*). They say a playoff sequence doesn’t begin till the house group loses, however the Golden State Warriors discover themselves in serious trouble in…

Who's Joining the NBA's Final Four?
What a wild, exciting NBA playoffs this is turning out to be! In the first round alone, 4 higher seeded teams – the East’s 1st seed Milwaukee Bucks and 4th seed Cleveland Cavaliers; and the West’s 2nd seed Memphis Grizzlies and the 3rd seed Sacramento Kings – were booted out unceremoniously. That’s 4 upsets in 8 match-ups, or a 50% win rate. In the second round, 2 of the 3 finished mano-a-mano…

I Owe The Denver Nuggets Their Props
Tumblr media
The Nuggets, mostly as a result of being associated with Nikola Jokic, have been subject to a lot of slander on this blog.
I predicted that if the Nuggets had to play one of the many playoff teams with multiple veteran all stars, a-la the Phoenix Suns, they would probably hit their ceilng.
Well they didn’t.
With a 125-100 victory in game 6 the Nuggets have once again reached the Conference Finals and will play the Los Angeles Lakers in the next round, and it’s time to eat that humble pie.
Tumblr media
I’ll be fair, they’ve proven me wrong at almost every step.
Jamal Murray was indeed worth waiting for and it those performances in the bubble were not fluke. He’s giving you 25.9 points and 6.5 assists so far, the Nuggets 2nd star is putting it all on the floor and while he can have hiccups like his 3-15 for 10 points in game 3 against the Suns, he has been the dependable act that follows Nikola Jokic.
These positives extend all the way to the one guy that I was sure would have sunk the ship by now, and that’s Nuggets head coach Mike Malone.
While I do have my concerns about Michael Porter Jr, I also know that he can come up with shooting nights like the one he had in game 5, and even if he is the forgotten man in their offense sometimes, he’s still a threat.
Nikola Jokic has been incredible, Shaq referred to him as the best big man in the league, and while I think that is several bridges too far, Jokic was outstanding in the 2nd round and they smashed the Phoenix Suns. Jokic has been dominant putting up 30.7 points, 12.8 rebounds and 9.7 assists, so basically a triple-double. Game 1 against the Suns was the only time he didn’t score 30 or more points in the series. 
Look, I’m ready to give the Nuggets thier flowers.
I won’t pick them to beat the Lakers in Conference FInals, but I will admit they are better than I gave them credit for all season long.
Okay, Nuggets.
