Just curious why you dislike Porzingas so much?

Been rooting against the Celtics but may root for them now bc everyone is picking against them…also I don’t like watching Luka and Tatum is a good guy even tho I hate watching him.

Go Celtics

Too easy for DAL. BOS has no BBIQ on offense. When the pressure is on, they will settle for jacking up 3s while Ky and Luka are scoring at all 3 levels

I don't expect the Mavs to win unfortunately but I badly want the Celtics to lose

Excited for the Kyrie vs Boston storyline.

Rooting for the Mavs so I can talk smack to my dad and homer Celtic friend who both say Celtics will sweep.

Don't mind Tatum getting his first ring if they win he's a good dude.

Celtics in 5. I'd say 4, but they will probably lay an egg in game 2 again.

Unless Luka mysteriously gets injured like the best player of every other team in Boston's way, the Mavs win this easily. Kristaps might stretch it a game, but that's it.

I just don't see how the Mavs win more than a few games here. I'll go C's in 5

Yeh the team with the highest offensive rating in NBA history has no BBIQ.

Celtics in 5, maybe 6.

I like the matchup for the Celtics. Luka is a menace and will have monster stat lines but I like our matchups a lot more.

Our offense is worlds apart over what Mavs saw with the Wolves. There’s no Rudy Gobert, Kyle Anderson, Jaden McDaniels to sag off and control the paint.

Luka won’t be able to hide on defense on the weak side.

Should be a great series either way. Looking forward to it. Hopefully everyone stays healthy and we get tight games.

Boston has the better overall team, but Dallas has the best player.

That should make for a really good series. I would give the edge to Boston though if I had to bet money on it.

Who wins the 2024 NBA FINALS?
