Ebony & Ivory with Burning Sage vs. Lucky Charms & Unicorns Colliding on Flat Earth | Official Mavericks (#5) vs. Celtics (#1) 2024 NBA Finals Thread

[Oldschooler]

Celtics have the depth and with Kristap it puts them on another level. This is Celtics championship for them to lose. Kyrie is too old and has too many injuries and milage in him to take over. Wtf is josh hart saying having PJ Washington and Jones be the primary ball handlers and having Luka and Kyrie play off ball is a recipe for disaster.

If nothing else I'm glad this season finally put that "Marcus Smart is the heart & soul of the Celtics" shyt to be bed once and for all

Nothing is put to bed until they win #18

 

[No1]

outside of luka and kyrie, the rest of these guys ain't doing shyt unless they're placed exactly where they need to be each possession.

djj, exum, kleber, pj, etc ain't making high level reads

The Wolves being stupid made people forget this.

Concerned about KP.... I'm guessing he's at least missing game 3

He stayed on the bench with a trainer working on him. Seems like he fell on his ass and was laboring a bit, 3 days should help.

A lot of folks aren’t going to agree with me but Brown has a better bag than Tatum.

How he got a better bag with no left hand?

 

[gho3st]

Yeah this is gay

Af . Only way mavs win this is if kristap gets injured

 

[MicIsGod]

Kyrie the most skilled player of all time argument is out the window

Naw that’s reserved for all time greats like Kobe, Hakeem, Jordan, Steph etc

He missed shots it ain’t that deep.

Idk about steph. He played pretty bad when GSW choked that 3-1 lead

Giannis fans to Luka fans



@MushroomX

If my Coach was Doc, I would check out myself for the season...

 

[Avisible Man]

They [Celtics] always lose game 2s

On a general scale yes, but this team never needed Marcus Smart to have an identity is the point. People grossly overestimated his value

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Boston are just TOO DEEP

I was thinking of making a thread about that. They're one of the most balanced scoring teams I can ever remember. There's four different players on this team that could be the 20-25ppg featured scorer if they had their own squad and another three guys who can give you 20 any given night.

The fact that most of them play good defense too on top of that is wild. If Tatum, Jrue, and to a lesser extent the others weren't individually so unreliable, they could have clown-stomped the NBA this year.

Boston actually finishing games. Lets see the adjustments Dallas makes for Wednesday. One thing I'm noticing is Boston is playing the way they want. Minnesota has a terrible offense and OKC young players got scared and wouldn't let their 3's go. Boston players aren't scared so the way OKC got ran off the 3 point line isn't going to work this series. Boston's players are better at finishing their possessions that don't end in a 3.

Idk about steph. He played pretty bad when GSW choked that 3-1 lead

And Kobe played pretty bad in 2004
What’s your point ?
