Embiid texting Lebron tonight "Yo we gotta get them back next season!"

And James "Bro series isn't over"

Embiid: "Lol"

He literally did nothing in the third but settled for jumpers When they lost the whole lead

Celtics are the better team. Been the better team all year. Been better even when Kyrie went down.

Why? They frankly look better without him.

Role players always shoot better at home, so will have to wait and see how Cleveland shoots in game three. At least Boston knows they can still win with Lebron having a dominant game though.

Only a true great can really put a roster like what the Cavs have now in position to compete for a chip.. I don't even think a prime Shaq could do that, and I personally think prime Shaq is the most unstoppable force to ever grace the NBA hardwood.


But they aren't competing for a chip....This is why you can never compare him to MJ...MJ never quit or let his team quit....And this isn't the first time...He's a quitter...A runner to better options....The team reflects its leader..Theyve talked bout the blame game all night...He's a 6'8 little bitch..


This is an...interesting conclusion for a Warriors fan to draw. Excited for y'all to get your 4th straight title this seas...oh, wait.

This is his prime, he's about to turn 26... There's no upside left for him and this is all he can produce, anyone paying him is going to be sorry.

Celtics are 8-2 in the postseason with Smart and 2-2 without him. Guy just makes a massive impact

I am so delighted of the effort the Celtics play with. And the defense looks like poetry in motion. Stevens couldn't get enough credit for that

It'd be poetic if the Celtics ended Lebron's eastern dominance. They were the ones that really ignited Lebron in the first place.

Lue stuck by Love and Tristan and they finally started showing up. They can't beat the Celtics and the Warriors with this JR, but can they beat them with no JR at all?
