All that altitude in Denver must've given them the extra cardio reps. Something something about having a strong heart. lol

Nothing like giving up a three as the last play of one quarter and the first play of the next quarter.

Wtf. I started tuning into UFC and had a look at the score.

Maybe I should stay away from the game. Let’s go Denver.

Millsap was fouled by Davis on the 3-attempt. No call.

Father time is undefeated. Lebron's unstoppable until he's not. One of these days - and you won't see it coming - he'll be in a tough series, and he'll still be playing extremely well, but, all of the sudden, you'll realize he doesn't have that final top gear that's uniquely his. You'll keep expecting it to come, and it just won't. And he'll still be playing great. But not transcendently.

Maybe it's not this year. Maybe it's not next year. But it's coming.

This year’s Finals when Jayson Tatum outplays him and Jaylen Brown clamps him down in the last possession of Game 7 for the win.

LOL Lebron offensive foul, ref swallows whistle. Davis hits a three for a 10-pt lead.

Draining 3s like he's not a .330 shooter.
Lebron getting away with obvious charges.

Not seeing where it's gonna come from for Denver.

I hope AD needs some time to rest that ankle, maybe the nba/refs would want us to win next game to give him time to heal.

Yeah but how many times have you (and/or others) said that this postseason? People should know better by now.

There's an alternate timeline (ask Robert, he knows all about it) where OG doesn't hit the corner three, we finish off the Raptors in 4 and we wrap the Heat series early 'cos we didn't throw away the leads in games 1 & 2.

The refs are so obvious. They would do their best to put this game away, then when it’s almost out of reach, they would start calling outrageous calls in favor of the nuggets, just to avoid suspicion :lol: too obvious nba

Speaking of father time, remember when Millsap dropped that 45/13game on us in the playoffs a few years ago? Dude was like a **** flame thrower.. Crazy to see the difference now. Simple role player at this point.

It's gonna have to be us. No one else has what it takes. We cannot let Miami gift the LA their 17th*.

Return to Boston Celtics
