The Official NBA Thread: PLAYOFFS

[storm2006]

There is a time and a place for suits. Coaching on an NBA sideline isn't one of them. It's not like they are sitting in an air conditioned board room. They are moving up and down the sideline, sometimes squatting, working up a sweat at time, etc. for 2-2.5 hours. Sure it can be done a suit, as it was in the past, but it is FAR more comfortable doing it in their team exclusive athleisure attire and sneakers.

Plus coaches can still get fits off with little touches like the Ferragamo belt like Quin Snyder

If I walk into a bank and I see someone dressed like Justin Bieber, I'm walking out.

GREATEST FINALS EVER.

A certain segment of millennials and Gen x might end up being worse than boomers and silent generation when it comes to respectability politics.

Nobody cares about the nuggets, they’re the lowest rated finals team ever

They’re not that good

They’re not entertaining

Jokic isn’t that great of a passer and isn’t even the best on his team

They’re the stupidest team to ever win a championship

Jamal Murray isn’t good he can’t even average 20 ppg

Mike malone should have been fired years ago

Anything else about them that I missed lol

They can't play defense.

 

[Moheezy]

Celtics fans were having an evening.

They've gone out sad...

 

[finessence]

Coaches out here dressed like public defenders. You going straight to jail.

Suits >>>>>>

Cleaner look.

Lastly, suits and SNEAKERS is disgusting. I don’t understand why it’s a thing. I’m with osh kosh bosh

Put a suit on

hell of a run by the heat. this underdog story was good and all, but riles got to get back to landing some big names.

duncan played himself back to where he got some value

Working at a desk or teller station at bank and or defending a client for acquittal of a crime in a court room in front of a judge are not the same as coaching professional athletes. They look clean when done right but it’s not a requirement for every occasion or profession. No player, GM, owner, casual or even diehard fan is going to care about the coach wearing a suit or a 1/4 zip. This isn’t rocket science .

 

[osh kosh bosh]

But the guys who look like slobs look like slobs with suits on too

Thibbs looked totally solid suit wise. nice cuts/tailoring.

instead we got this sloppy wrinkled mess.

looks like your uncle after falling asleep on the couch at the cookout.

The Finals have proven that he really needs to reinvest in length again, Bam can't do it all himself.

Once the 3's arent falling, the lack of size gets exposed each time especially now that the best teams in the league have elite bigs.

Watching sports with osh or go to the dentist

That’s an honest question we’re facing

… this is exactly why professionalism is at an all time low.

Cats coming to interviews with graphic tee’s and chinos. The NBA is a billion dollar corporations, executives and coaches should be in suits.

I don’t even like baseball managers wearing jerseys. Like you’re not even getting in the game.

Why is 80 year old Tony Larusa wearing a whole uniform

Tough pill to swallow man.

Jim has made the heat title contenders for 4 years now.

They shoulda BEEN got him some allstar level help by now. Especially after that series with boston last year.

I can hear all the “jims window is closed” talk already.

Hell, they were sayin it during the reg season.

 

[addict4sneakers]

been to my fair share of games. Never once did I remember what the coaches wore or even what players wore to the game.

The NBA finals montages are about the players, not what a coach wore.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Look at this thread. And y’all talking about some suits

 

[sohi 23]

Every time Miami made a run, Denver responded.

Murray had timely buckets.
Bruce Brown & AG showed the **** out.

This is a championship squad. Props to Denver.
Wonder how much bread Bruce Brown is going to get in a month.

 

[sohi 23]

The Nuggets aren’t boring. If anything the only thing that’s been boring about the finals is how much better Denver is than Miami.

Whole thread is on fire

I'm back to wearing suits every week to work and I hate it, but even though there isnt a dress code, people still act like it is, and wanna be judgy if you don't simply follow the rule that there is no more dress code.

It sucks. Wearing suits sucks. Its not comfortable. Why are we intentionally making people be uncomfortable for nonsense old way standards. Let people be comfortable while they do their job. That should be the mantra everywhere for every job. Like why do retail workers have to stand? Society is wild sometimes.

Remember when I said that the thing I disliked the most about this season was that every thing that made it stood out until the playoffs was just all ridiculous stuff. People were just in love with drama this year.
