GG Celtics. Better team.

I trust Nico to make us better. Starts with getting THJ off our team.

Dont know how this team got past the wolves. I know i know, matchups. but this team dont have no 3rd guy or even an aggregate to make up a third guy.

They played 10 other players and only scored 37 btw em.

Jaylen cooking. Im happy for this boston team. Fans can fukk themselves. But that team is fukkin good. And should be remembered as such.

Easy. No consistency from KAT, a worn out Antman. They didn't make Luka work on defense because they don't have an offensive threat outside of Antman; they didn't force Luka to switch onto him. Minnesota needs to figure out what to do with KAT or Gobert; one is limited on offense, the other is inconsistent as shyt; they probably need to trade one to get a second scorer.

Windhorst is spot on.

The whining about calls is so annoying about Luka. He’s probably responsible for double digit Boston points just off not running back!!

I don't think it's right to have Luka in the same sentence as Joker right now. Joker isn't a great defender but he puts in effort and on offense he's making everyone around him better. He has a ring already.

Luka has work to do..

Jokic was actually good on defense in the finals last year.

The Heat were not able to just pick him apart like what the Celtics are doing to Luka. And they were definitely trying...

This game is a prime example how Boston Celtics is on another level

For a big part of the game they were taking good shots. Mavs? I don't know what the fukk they were doing. Kidd ain't coaching shyt on offense.

I don’t know if this iteration of the Mavs even beat OKC next year, and likely not 2 years from now. Thunder may become Boston 2.0 depending on how Chet and JW progress.

And of course Denver’s not going away either.

Really, Dallas has only looked top tier in one series all playoffs. So just getting back to the Finals will be a crapshoot.

this was the mavs best chance and they blew it
OKC was very young and the wolves were gassed taking out the other threat Denver

would put them even below the lakers next season

 

[who_better_than_me]

Boston is attacking Luka on offense like they attacked Harden in Philly. Theyre putting the pressure on them defensively to step up and neither can. Boston looked like the Duncan Spurs whipping that ball around on offense when they go against Luka or Harden when he was in Philly.

 

[NoMorePie]

The Dallas Mavericks will be the first team in NBA history to come back from 3-0 and win the series.

 

[who_better_than_me]

Kyrie calling Lebron after Friday Night: “ I’ve been doin some thinking lately, and fukk what Perk saying….. I miss you too Bro. I’m ready to come home”

 

[Damnshow]

Boston has put Dallas in a Boston crab time to tap out

 

[UpAndComing]

Joker's ring had a lot of circumstance around it and the injured teams they faced. Just being real. And he got exposed being a shyt rim defender these playoffs.

nothing. just an observation. the celtics most likely beat any team that came out.

Exactly. Rik Smits with a horse fetish somehow getting the benefit of the doubt that they would have won another title this year when they haven't beaten a 50 win team yet is just odd to me

 

[King Poetic]

How the fukk the mavericks even get out the west

Terrible role players and your star player is terrible defensively and constantly complaining because he getting scorched defensively
