He says lots of stupid stuff, granted. And guaranteeing anything is obviously stupid, especially with two teams as evenly matched as Bos/Orl.

Still, nice to see some respeck from the media.

And like Ewing, Barkley's not important enough to jinx us, :)

He's been picking us adamantly since the beginning of the series.

Barkley has a tendency to say stupid things and, for the most part, get lucky and get away with it. Let's hope he gets away with this.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

evenly matched???? you serious? we have some serious advantages with matchups but we just have inexperience as a team and thats why we havent won this series already 4-1

but im not expecting a win, if we get it then great, if not well i still hate boston and their dirty plays and bandwagon fans

Barkley has been on our bandwagon the whole series.

and our inexperience is accounted for in the statement. if our lack of playoff experience wasn't a factor, the series would already be over.

i'm expecting a win. but i always expect a win ;)

Barkley is right.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability
