You'll also note that my post had other criticisms in it too, not just Jax. Almost like I was making a general point about the series as a whole instead of what is currently happening in this precise millisecond.

yeah you also complained about Willie playing Graham who has played literally 2 minutes this game. You have your set of complaints that you are sticking to regardless of what happens in the game

Another day, another playoff games where our 3 rookies are having tangibly excellent impact

I don't know how to explain to you more clearly that I am making a general point about trends, not specific single game moments.

You saying ''but Jax was good at the very start of game 6!'' or ''but Graham hasn't played much this game'' is besides the point because I am talking about GENERAL trends THROUGHOUT the series.

If someone is telling you about a movie they saw and they say it was too dark and they couldn't see anything, do you respond by pointing out the 2 minutes of the film that there was a light on or something?

Good to see Nance and Jose still out there after their injuries.

Ok so you are complaining about general trends that aren't what is happening in this game, got it. I was confused i thought this was a thread about game 6

Ingram has 5 turnovers.. I hate these kind of games from him. Hope he has a better 4th.

All right, we weathered the storm. Now time to figure out what to do with Chris Paul in the 4th

Yea that was a bad turnover by BI at the end, I don't know why he didn't take that shot.

It was a list of general trends. Not every single one of them applies to every single minute of every single game. Many of them apply to this game - see, Jax getting targeted and essentially costing us a 10 point lead in the quarter that literally just happened - but some do not (though, we didn't actually need any minutes of Graham this game, even just two! but Green didn't stick with the mistake as long this game as usual).

BI has to play all 24 second half minutes.

I hope he warms up offensively. He's passing well, generally, but as you say some of the TOs are rough and he's not really taking shots.

We really had Jones bring the ball up into half court and I wasn't nervous. Baby Kawhi

I like that he's willing to make the pass in this game when the shot isn't there.. instead of forcing it. Overall he's doing fine, I just hate turnovers..

The league needs to get rid of the swing through foul calling.. It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

Jonas with that big man stuff! We should put the ball in his hands down low whenever possible this quarter. He's got the fire.

They did lol. Unnatural shooting motions are offensive fouls

4th quarter Devonte' minutes, god save my soul

I could go for the nance + jonas frontcourt right now

Kira Lewis probably shouldn't extend his lease

There are 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter of a win-or-go-home game.

When are you saving his 6th foul for, Cancun?

Give Trey all the looks man
