It looks like Dallas may be trying to slow this game down. That would be wise.

Mavs beat a 51 win team, a 57 win team and a 56 win team. Why belittle what they accomplished?

They are millionaires getting paid to sit in chairs. I doubt embarrassment is their primary emotion regarding their situation.


We’ve hit a new low. That was the worst halftime show in television history. You’d think espn has some integrity


Let us hope NBC will treat it more seriously when they get it back

It's only going to get worse with the new contract.

Finally getting to hear roundball rock again, but it coming in some terrible commercial with the ultimate sellout (Kevin Hart) advertising sports betting, is some truly cursed monkeys paw ****.

The Celtics have had a way higher motor this game. The Mavs have given up on several plays when the Celtics actually missed.

Kyrie has been effing awful.
I don't want to hear about him being a top 3 player in this series

Terrible turnover from Kyrie and then makes it even worse by going for the steal and taking himself completely out of the play. Just stupid.
