That just seems insane to me.
Two of them happened in the last week, which is in the playoffs.
It's not even a tanking team losing by two.
These are teams trying to get to the title.
I'm saying that it raises an eyebrow that you would be down at any point of a game by 50 points in a playoffs especially.
If the Thunder beat the Wizards by 50 a couple of months ago, then I can wink at that, or a team that's desperately trying to tank to get ping pong balls.
But again, these are playoff teams, so they've got to be decent enough to not ever lose to another NBA team by 50.
I think that they were outclassed, and the better team won and proved it.
I don't think Elway ever quit.
It's definitely a point that happens before the coach would like it to happen.
Now going back to Joel Embiid and the load management term, playing 38 games doesn't mean you're load managing.
That means you're hurt.
If you're playing 68, 69, 70 games and you're missing every back-to-back, that's load management.
You're right, but the rest of the time, 38 games doesn't mean load management.
That's 30 of those games I was hurt.
Have you seen him lumber up and down the court?
And then the playoffs, it's a whole different ballgame when you say, can you give me 25 for one game, rather than can you average 25.
I can't depend on Tobias Ayers to average 25.
He might give me a game, a series, where he puts up 25.
But averaging, that's a different animal.
