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

[-] sdlesion@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

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.

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

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

[-] Valandir@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago

Agreed, this has been a blast

[-] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

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 7 points 1 year ago

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

[-] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Well deserved tho haha

[-] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

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

[-] FermatsLastAccount@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

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

[-] humutoor@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Going to crown a new champion tonight and a Joker mvp 🙌🏽

[-] neal@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

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

These in-game coach interviews are so weird and useless

[-] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

coach, what armchair psychology and motivational platitudes do you have for us tonight?

Neat. No need for reddit-stream.

[-] sh1n1gam1@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

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

Kind of sad that our first game thread will probably be our last for a long while. We gotta do some summer league games!

What a terrible, terrible shot

It was the Butlerest of times, and it was the Butlerest of times.

Live by the Himmy, die by the Jimmy

Is this ugly basketball or exciting? Can it be both? I think it's both

Congrats denver

[-] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Jokic brothers are gonna get absolutely smashed

[-] FermatsLastAccount@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Denver is really gonna miss Brown if they can't bring him back. Huge impact throughout the playoffs

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

[-] Kissing_Ash@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Where’s Jokic LMAO did he just go home?

Edit: aw he was just chilling with his family lol

[-] smokinjoe@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Binge responsibly, Denver

Or don't. I'm not your dad

[-] sdlesion@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

KCP with the steal of his life

[-] CapsuleCorp@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year 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.

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 6 points 1 year ago

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

[-] jeffry@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year 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.
