I just know that he Morris is a dirty player just this playoffs, maybe because his team wasn't that good in the past and he was not given big minutes unlike the minutes he is earning this time. If he is really a dirty player, then I guess the NBA should investigate on that and probably sanctioned if find out those hard fouls he gave was really intentional.

It was proven after that flagrant2 foul.
He was doing all of that on purpose and he is just trying to save his ass with his tweets trying to be the good guy.
Should there still be a benefit of the doubt?

But what else is there afterward? The damage was done and Mavs lose their games. Injuries, KP being kicked out of the game. All of those came from Morris trying to hurt Luka. Will they suspend the 2nd round if Morris was proven guilty? I don't think so.



It's part of the game.  Back in the 80s and 90s this was common.  I dont agree with crazy fouls like this but I do wish there was at less of the hand checking fouls it screws up the flow of the game.  And it is what it is, mavs lose, clips move on to round 2.

I actually put a long shot play on the nuggets winning the whole thing lol.  Yeah jazz has the edge obviously but with the way nuggets are playing right now almost at the half and up 8 they are looking good.  If it goes to a game 7 the jazz will have so much pressure on them.  With Harris back playing that is good for the nugs they were missing him in the rotation.  Fingers crossed.

Nuggets have the edge now, there's no line for game 7 yet but I believe Nuggets will be the favorites in game 7 based on the performance they showed in game 6. Congrats to them and to you wheelz1200, looks like Nuggets are going to have a successful comeback to win the series.

I agree since they force this game to happen no wonder the fans will cheer to them this time. anyway, there are no fans in the court but this is exactly what they Denver Nuggets wants. since the last year, they got defeated by Golden state, they need to regain some momentum on their games to be able to reached the conference final again and have the chance to compete in the finals. but first thing first, they need to win this game smoothly.

Flagrant 2 and it was really a hard foul.
He's attacking stars.
So Mitchell or Murray will need to be careful with this guy. They may be next in line.
Well, not just stars to be exact but I think as what he said and in defense he was that of a physical player. Yeah, he should have just played right but if it was did on purpose, that was really dirty of him. Who knows no one will really speak for the truth that they did it on purpose.

We are just talking about Morris of the Clippers last time and he did it again.
This guy is a real dirty player for a win.
I like Beverley more since it is pure defense and just annoying his offensive match up to wreck them mentally.

Edit: Luka doubted it was on purpose the first time he did it. But it was proved it was the 2nd time.

He was really dirty, I watched his dirty plays against Morris in the series and I can tell that all of it is intentional.
Clippers winning because they are dirty, I don't think that would give them the respect, maybe he should do that also against his brother if they'll meet in the WCF.

Hopefully this all done now
in terms of this silent protest and the boycott will be out from the league.
Let's hope that it wouldn't be followed by any the same protest or issue that just happened. All is good and we're going to see a new set of games.

All at peace, well done to all of those who have expressed their protest and also to the NBA itself.

No protest can ever stop the NBA now, they have already agreed that they will finished the season.

It's the first day since the NBA resume after the protest, we can expect that the playoffs will continue without interruption.

In the games that has concluded today, Blazers and Magic are already out in the first round.

Games tomorrow.

Denver vs Jazz ( 2-3 ) if Jazz win, series is over.
Clippers vs Mavericks (3-2) If Clippers win, series is over.

Boston vs Raptors game 1 2nd round of the playoffs.

I like the Nuggets in this game.  I think the pressure for the jazz to close it out will be too much for them.  Got the nugs winning outright in this one so I might take the money line.  The over on this game looks good too.  Still have the nuggets winning this whole series

Wow, I believe you bet on the Nuggets to win the series?

Well, they can win, but Jazz but they are in disadvantage already, they need to win 2 games to advance in the second round but they can't do that if they will only rely on Jokic and Murray to carry the team, other players has to step us also like the Jazz have been doing, they are getting contribution from anyone, (Clarkson, Mitchell, Conley, and Gobert), you don't know who would explode among these players.

I believe even though the protests are not done just yet, I feel like this has made some sort of changes in the way NBA is approaching politics as a whole. We are talking about people who are actually taking the knee all together now, protesting the police brutality and all around registering to vote all together, they are now very very political and that is too important. We all know that NFL was too political as well, Kaep actually took the knee first and he was blacklisted, I agree that he wasn't the best player on earth but people who are worse than him actually got a contract whereas he didn't, he sued for this and even got a ton of money out of it as well.

So, right now NBA as a whole going to other direction that NFL took and from now on you can expect a lot more political stuff from NBA and I believe that is awesome.

Yeah, this is guaranteed.

Just in case another protest comes and there will be the concern again coming from the players. Before doing what they have to do.

They already know the answer and reaction of NBA.

That's indeed a good news considering it really made a headline for that temporary pause.

In the games that has concluded today, Blazers and Magic are already out in the first round.
More like a precedented scenario, well, of course they got into both leaders of West and East. Lakers and Bucks has been humiliated by first game but look at that they still dominated it. LBJ was still undefeated in his playoff first round series.

After three days off, the 2020 NBA playoffs resume Saturday when the Milwaukee Bucks face the Orlando Magic.
Where does everything stand in the league now? And what's the latest on what will come next - both for this season and beyond?
Here's everything we know and don't know as games are set to start again: https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/29761983/what-know-know-nba-playoffs-restart
Well, the match between Bucks and Magic is done.

Very well done by Bucks.

118-104.

We have Bucks vs Heat for tomorrow.

Also the game between Houston and OKC and Lakers vs Blazers, moving now to the next stage of this playoffs. Hopefully this all done now
in terms of this silent protest and the boycott will be out from the league.
Westbrook did came game in game 5, though he struggle with his shooting but Harden was playing well so they dominated the OKC and this is a great win after losing 2 straight games. Hopefully Westbrook will be able to adjust in game 6.

Quote
There's incoming game between Clippers and Mavs, another great series to watch out, either it can be finished by Clips tomorrow or Mavs will try to extend it to final game 7.


Probably this series would also end soon as KP is out already in the playoffs.

What do you guys think of this,  Dallas did won 1 game without KP but can they extend the series to game 7?
They can but I think that will be the same as in Game 4 without KP on them, they win but that was too tight for them over that win. Luka is a great player an can carry a team there's always a possibility they can.

About Blazers, I don't want to ask questions as I believe series is already over now.
LeBron has never been defeated on a playoffs first round and I think that will still continue on it's streak.

Agree on both games.  Clippers led by Kawhi wasnt going to lose to luka.  Shame kp got hurt but even with him I think the clips are too powerful to have the mavs knock them off.

And as far as the lakers, there was never any real question if portland was going to knock them off.  Even with dame getting 40-50 points it still wouldn't matter, he can't carry the team by himself.  Lebron will move on as always
