They'll be fine, its one game. It's going to be a long series.

Celtics look like a team that had a cakewalk to the finals vs. a team that had to go through a grinder out West.
Anyways it's just one game. Mavs look a bit rattled but that's because they just cannot open threes to drop.

lol at people reacting after just one game where KP is playing the best game of his life and both Kyrie and Luka their worst of those POs.
You want to bet that it won't continue?

Stepped out with Dallas up 13-12. I’ll assume Boston brought the entire X-Men school off the bench?

LMAO
Yeh they were all saying he was bad after extended breaks.
When I went and researched it and proved he actually played well on 2-5 week layoffs, they went silent.

People overreacting to one half of ball. Yeah it’s not a great half for Dallas. Plenty of time and games to adjust. Hell they have enough time to come back in this game. C’s have shown in the past that they can blow leads quickly.

Mavs didn’t have anyone building teams specifically for them. Even this Celtics team is built for Denver.

i'll remember the 2024 NBA Finals as the time the ads took over even on desktop (usually the annoyance is only on mobile/Tapatalk).
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Interesting. I’m always skeptical remaking a classic 90s movie. Maybe it will be good. The new mortal kombat was awful

It ain't over. Celtics are incredibly hot right now. It'll cool off. Mavs will make adjustments at some point that slows things down.

Ironically, I can watch a blowout all day. It's when the refs start making the calls to make it close that I immediately turn the game off.
But I know I'm in the minority on that.
