From mourning Jerry West to guitar solo. Tough act to follow with change of tone.

Next game, Weird Al with an accordion.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Man I don’t know. Tingus pingus being a rim protector and a scoring force off the bench is huge. Such a luxury to have him create his own buckets and also block fast breaks! That’s huge


That's exactly it though a luxury, they still have the overwhelming edge in talent.

Can Tatum show the hell up and prove us haters wrong? Jesus Christ it’s like taking candy from a baby.

This guy has nooooo balls. Lets Skip, Stephen A Smith, the media, the non-Celtic fans and the non-Celtic players take his candy. No resistance.

Mavs -2.5 by game time. So we got even action from both Dallas and Boston backers. Celtics could steal this one if it's a close game. The Mavs desperately need the nuclear Luka + Kyrie (at the same time) tonight.

This is a smart decision. Boston's aim is to steal one of the next two games-- so while it looks like they might just give up on G3 (they are not, they are that good), a healthy KP in G4 is more crucial.

It's time. Kyrie either goes out like a punk, unable to confront the shadows of the past, and the mavericks enter the dustbin of history, or he surmounts his demons and shows he still has some fight left in him.

Has the camera placement in Dallas always been like this? The court looks smaller today for some reason.

Interesting to see where the high ball screen for Luka came from. It was almost at halfcourt. I figured Kidd would try something like that.
