is it a hot take to think boston has 5 of the 7 best players in the series (brown, rob, tatum, smart, horford) and warriors only curry (best by far) and wiggins ?

draymond falling to be one of the best players in the floor has affectrd warriors a lot

I'd hesitate on Rob Williams in large part due to minutes. But the Celtics have shown great depth for sure.

rob feels like he has monster impact when he plays even if the minutes are low

even adjusted to minutes i thinl he still has beem one of the mosy inportant players in the series

It's so refreshing seeing defense almost seem overpowered in this series.

The only way the warriors can win this game and series is if the celtics continue to have too many bad live ball turnovers since the warriors struggle big time to score in half court

Holy crap is Draymond cooked. It's not pretty for undersized bigs who lose their motors. But even worse, he looks petrified to even take a lay-up.

Kinda wild that Dray's been this bad in the Finals, he was solid in the playoffs up until now.

i expected bucks instead, but he is suffering the same issues i predicted for a finals against milwaukee

his offense being ignored and his defense and rebounding suffering against size

Warriors should be secretly happy when Draymond gets in foul trouble early.

Yeah. This series have given by OKC 2016 vibes when he just couldn't bully Adams and Ibaka...but now he's 6 years older. Looney has been so much better than him. And I suspect Kuminga would be as well.

Steph should really get FMVP regardless of the outcome. The gap in play between him and Tatum has been pretty significant.
