I just want everyone to know, this was the most fun I've had in a game thread in ever

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is the most I've ever participated in one. I agree!

The smaller crowd here really helps. The old game threads with thousands of people so chaotic.

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah everyone just spamming the same memes nonstop and not really discussing the game

[–] FermatsLastAccount@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Usually gamethreads, especially in the finals, are just going way to fast to participate.

[–] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm an old fart, and tbjs was just my speed

[–] tigerdactyl@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah it’s actually possible to keep up and chat!

[–] Valandir@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

Agreed, this has been a blast

[–] FermatsLastAccount@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That block by Gordon was absurd

[–] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This Joker guy seems pretty good

[–] sh1n1gam1@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

They did it! Congrats to the Nuggets for the first chip. Much respect for the Heat.

[–] FermatsLastAccount@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How on earth is that a foul?

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

NBA wants a game 7 with these two

[–] FermatsLastAccount@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I get that, but that was just extremely egregious

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

God that was a great game. Aside from the refs, this was a slugfest to the end!!’

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Alright come on Murray

[–] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lmao this is stupid

Wtf was that 3

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Lowry has been clutch for the Heat this game. Completely locked in.

[–] atp2112@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Jeff Green has a ring. Hell yeah

[–] brownbreadboy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Now we can talk about Denver, like Mike Malone wants lol

[–] atp2112@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

For 3 hours, until the Ja suspension drops

[–] neal@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Heat playing like they cant lose. While I am rooting for Denver, its fun to see the fight.

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

If I’m a Denver fan right now I’d be fuming. They’re getting so many good looks and just missing. Fuck, even as a non fan I’m getting annoyed lol.

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

KCP with the steal of his life

[–] atp2112@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

How can you kick a man in the balls and get the foul call?

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Jokic was great again but this was won by great defensive plays by the whole team. And clutch free throws.

Also Jokic doesnt seem so excited hahaha, classic

[–] atp2112@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You just know Jokic is going to get drunk drunk, though

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Well deserved tho haha

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

"It's good, it's good. We can go home now." Never change, Jokic. Never change!!

[–] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lmao that layup by Miami

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Where’s Jokic LMAO did he just go home?

Edit: aw he was just chilling with his family lol

[–] atp2112@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Is 15 seconds left in a do-or-die game really the best time for a heat check?

[–] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I knew their plan was to make Butler shoot a 3 to get FT’s lol. But that ain’t it right now

[–] tigerdactyl@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

“Go to the three point line and kick everyone in the balls”

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

What a terrible, terrible shot

[–] JakoJakoJako13@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

This a game of haymakers.

[–] CapsuleCorp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

So glad Lemmy exists. Had totally forgotten about the reddit blackout. Went to check out the game thread at the start of the 4th and was so confused for a minute when Relay returned a blank page lmao.

[–] fiestapinguino@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Fuck yeah, glad I can shitpost somewhere.

[–] neal@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

6-13 from the line, can't miss those. Free points

[–] jeffry@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

This is going to surprise a lot of folks... but I don't think the refs are going to get out of this one without some criticism.

[–] ether@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Miami really came to play today

[–] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)
