Lots of color synergy in this semis. That’s gotta be good for something

3 straight foul calls on Denver and a bad call on an out of bounds as they struggle to grab a rebound all in one possession. Very Celtics like lol

KD 8/15 from two and 2/12 from three. All he does is chuck threes and disappear down the stretch, fake superstar. Oh we're only doing this when it's Tatum ? Sorry I didn't get the memo.

KD chose wrong. I kinda blame Monty. When they upgraded from Bridges to KD, they didn't adapt the offense to showcase that upgrade. What they've essentially done is pigeon-holed KD's massive talent into the role Bridges occupied in the offense which is "spot-up shooter/occasional playmaker and defender". KD is MUCH better than that. He should be an integral part of the offense but he isn't.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Whoa lmao, I’m not surprised they won’t bring him back, but I’ve never seen it stated so explicitly beforehand.

Denver are making a believer out of me. I’ll put my hands up and admit I may have had them wrong in terms of being pretenders.

We might be seeing a 2020 redux, with us playing the Heat in the ECF, and Lakers/Nuggets facing off in the WCF
