I can’t wait though. Should be another epic battle!


I don't think he needs to, the deed is already done. Draymond is in their heads. I actually anticipate a pretty subdued game from Dray tonight (by his standards).


I have Dray getting a tech before the half


Yep, chill is not in Draymond’s vocabulary.

He’s going to push the issue.

Getting pumped to watch the second-most exciting player in NBA history tonight! Maybe his last series on the biggest stage!

How long will it take for 1 option Tatum to get an assist to jaylen brown ?
You know there was a lot of Michael to Scottie. That’s how you get that 1a 1B thing to work .
Tatum making the wrong reads if he going to Smart and Horford everytime.

It's over Warriors will win this thing. Silver is glowing and proudly talking about Golden State on ESPN like team's his own.

Celtics need to withstand the runs of Golden State. Golden State will go on these 10+ runs. But they have to push through it. And on offense, make the Warriors scramble. So that means pass the ball but don't pass up open shots. Take the open shot, but don't force shots.

And defensively, crowd the 3 point line as much as possible and make Curry/Thompson/Poole drivers because they are prone to turnovers.

Easier said than done but the Celtics have the personnel to deal with the Warriors if they get their brain cells firing.

I expect the Celts to be up by 15 at some point this game. The key will be seeing how the Warriors respond.

At least he didn't say, "Our dream Finals would be Warriors versus Warriors," like Stern did about the Lakers. :lol: He probably just thought it.

Espn's analysts maybe trash but I like the intro on games especially the Finals.

That comment you wrote about Tatum being too nicely manicured and needing some wire tattoos or something was the funniest thing I read in that whole game thread. I really laughed out loud at that one.

I'm assuming a 1-1 series means tonight will be one of the least-rigged games of the series. More like Game 1 than Game 2. But you never know! Either way, Chef Curry will cook!

Iguodala being available is such a huge concern
