There was an ESPN article years ago that told the story of one of his friends showing up to his house in PUMAs and Jordan made him take them off and then sliced the shoes to pieces with a knife.

Boston is the better team that was just all out of sorts for the majority of the first 3 games while Miami has been relying on some extremely hot shooting. If Boston wins game 5, it's going to 7 and I think the Celtics become the first team to ever come back from an 0-3 deficit.


Well, its definitely not happening now.

Hoping the Saltics lose.

It'll be as close to being one of the best situations for us fans tbh with Nuggests/Heat in the finals and i'm leaning towards the nuggets to hopefully win.

whenever you think celtics have the advantage they lose and whenever you think they're finished they somehow pull it out.

This radio program had me rolling on the floor with their outrageous take that Ayton could be the next Mikal Bridges after seeing how Bridges thrived in Brooklyn. Ayton is a bad contract at this point. No way he equates max deal value, but you have to give credit to the host for heaping the blame on the guy no longer in the organization (Monty) for misusing Ayton.

This Gambo guy gets huge access to the undertakings of the team, and I think it is on purpose. They love to use him as a way to sell others on their trade assets. He was out selling the trade for KD last summer as well.

Toronto media is the polar opposite. Totally unconnected and clueless about what is happening in the organization. Steve Nash interviews with Toronto to be coach and you have to hear about it from outsiders.

I wish we had one media member with decent insider info, even if it was to sell off our middling assets.

I love this commercial NBA been playing.
Notice when narrator says "from anxiety to assurance" (0:37) they show Lowry and raptors. Reminds me of our fanbase pre and post championship :roll:

So he went 10, we took Ed Davis 13. I just looked at that draft, hardly any guys still playing. If you redrafted PG would go first.

I know Kimmel the Mannings and Larry and Magic of course but who's the middle age white guy with a green hoodie under a jacket. An actor? Can't quite place him

Kyle starting.

When Haslam played his last season game they put him in and he did good things. Surprised they don't give him a few minutes here and there to bang guys

Variance shooting is turning against the Heat.

Like I said, C's in 7.

I think so.

Saltics are the better team but I'm hoping heat close it out next game.
