Is there a poll for series winner?

My take - the limitations of the Mavs' front line gets exposed.

Porzingas not starting is not ideal because Celtics should be trying to maximize the minutes that Gafford and KP share the floor. Still got the Celtics to win but if this is to take the pressure off KP as they claim, I don’t agree with that decision.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Glad it's locked. I was going to note what it was before the series began.

Celtics take game 1, Mavs take game 2. I can feel it.

The Zinger is not 100% and too rusty. C's should have held him for game 2.Laimbeer wrote:WentzerWuver wrote:Not with an injured KpLaimbeer wrote:My take - the limitations of the Mavs' front line gets exposed.

Asthma?
I didn't see him talk just tuned in, but as someone with severe asthma since birth it sounds like a good bet. Most people that don't have it in my experience think asthma involves trouble breathing in, but what leads to that is less commonly known. It's actually a condition that makes it hard to breathe out and then your lungs fail to properly expel the carbon dioxide. So it builds up in the bottom of your lungs and makes them shallow and harder to get oxygen in again for each breathe. If speaking on air you can't wheeze it all out and look professional to catch your breath back up. If anxious or exited for any reason at all it can be hard to even put half a sentence together.
