NBA (whenever)...

Mazzulla absolutely tried to be too smart for his own good and it ended up being one of the most baffling coaching decisions in recent memory. I have no idea why he thought that starting lineup was a good idea and for 3 starters to end up with zero points to boot...it couldn't have worked out any worse. Just a complete disaster. Happy for Embiid.

I hope Mazzulla learns from this. It's the play offs. Don't fk around. Even playing the right way it would have been darn tough. Looking forward to the next series. The exchanges between Embiid and KAT are hilarious. I know who I trust in that match up. Quite apart from the fact that Embiid is just a better player, KAT is so mentally weak I expect him to resort to his usual stupid fouls. There's a difference between acting tough and playing tough. He's never really got it, which is why Draymond has always been able to get under his skin

absolutely! But I think everyone learned from 2018 and KD. I couldn't believe Halliburton was allowed to risk it, but in a funny way it allowed them to tank this season.

I don't mind that Haliburton was allowed to risk it. The Pacers were one win away from their first NBA Championship. At that point, you got to throw everything out the window and do whatever it takes to win that one game. Getting back there again is never guaranteed.
