9/10 ESPN experts picked the Lakers over the Celtics in 2008, lol!

Same as it ever was, lol. Hopefully we’ll see the same result as 08

Let’s GO Cs !!

Fr. Has the disconnect between the media narrative and the Vegas odds ever been this obvious? It's almost enough to make me think they're paying the media to push people into betting Dallas

With so much of the media and fans picking the Mavs I expect the same energy if the Cs win, though I expect the story at that point will be the Cs were always supposed to win.

C’s were always supposed to win and if Mavs win then it’s biggest upset in NBA history even though they’ve spent all week telling us they will win :lol:

I feel sick I’m so excited for this game. Lots of talk all week from everyone need to see us come out and set the tone.

Mavs defensive scheme reminds me of those bud ran with the bucks collapse the paint and leave some 3s. No Giannis or Brooke and we always seemed to cook them anyway.

I wanna see Tatum get to the basket early starting at the rim and moving out works best for him.

They have not a soul over there that can’t stay in front of Jaylen he should he be able to walk to the basket all night and he needs to be ready to kick the ball and start the rotations.

Celtics and their players will never win the narratives. Why not just win the actual thing that matters?

Dallas is deeper...is UD talking about like holes per capita in the city? Because Boston has some very deep holes on rt1.

I can't remember the last time I've been this excited for a basketball game. The championship is only 4 wins away.

Celtics been the fav all year long. Lost twice in the playoffs, historically one of the best offenses ever and the media is taking Dallas.

Make sense.

I honestly just think there's a lot of recency bias going on with these Mavs picks. People have been watching them a lot more the last few series than they have the Celtics becasue with the ECF injuries the media just finds those games less interesting.

People have literally just forgotten how good the Celtics are.

Frankly I'm focusing on 19. This **** been a wrap.

I can't believe they had Mahomes narrating their hype video, what a pathetic sports market Dallas is. Couldn't even find a legend of their own to do it for them. Pale imitation of the job Tom Brady the GOAT did with ours.

I think the 15 minute wait ESPN makes us go through before starting the games pisses me off more than the 10 day wait we just had
