You're legit cracking me up


Another butt hurt heat fan. Does it make you feel better or worse that team that ended your season is losing by 30 points?


Way better. Hearing you cry like this is making this way more fun.

It was a must win for the Warriors. Nobody should be surprised.

Can't show up in Boston 0-2.

The Celts' problem tonight is that they're 9-36 on 2 point shots, actually.


Guess they shoulda been feeding White & Horford on the perimeter then.

Couldn't have shot much worse tbh. :lol:

Warriors will recover and won’t get complacent next game. I know fans want to see warriors lose but they’re stilling wining this series. Warriors are great after a loss and they’re still at home. I won’t be surprised if it’s a route by the end of 1st half.

Except they have won at least 1 away game in their last umpteen play-off series. I am not sure HCA is much of a factor against the Celtics to be honest, they have won numerous away games in the play-offs this year.

It's a 30-point difference.


Doesn't change the fact that the officiating tonight has absolutely been lopsided and bad now does it? They LITERALLY ignored the most obvious technical foul of the night because it would have resulted in Draymond being ejected....

Didn't Steve Javie explained that one? You can't just eject players in an NBA Finals game if not that excessive. They made the right call.

I am not sweating it as a boston fan, we are going back to boston 1-1 Tatum broke out of his scoring slump. Was I hoping for 2-0 sure but I knew that one way or another that was unlikley to happen. We need to fix this third quarter thing though.

heat fan here, im not madd at the Eltics for eliminating us because i dont think a one man jimmy butler would have beat GSW.... and hopefully the result will help convince the organization to trade for Mitchell. so you may have actually done us a favor.

Klay has gotten punk'd by the Celtics D in this game. He's now missing good looks.

I feel like I could think of more work-related puns if I were more employed. Bank shot and and floater are self-explanatory, though. (A floater is a failure to flush and a bank shot is a bullet hole in your bedroom window.)

Regarding the moving screens, that is something they have gotten away with since Bogut was there. It is just something they let vet teams/players get away with. Hell the 08 Celtics were one of the greatest moving screens teams ever. KG+Perk were monsters at it.

At this point it is just something I have learned to live with. Refs dgaf. It sucks, but it is what it is.

*This is one of the main reasons I always want the Bulls to have an old vet big who gets away with it and then the younger guys start to get the same non-call.
