I was wrong.

I thought this was going to be an exciting finish.

Cavs are disappointing after that hot shooting.

It was a "meh" ending. :lol:

When you have a 7-3 ultra talented unicorn, you maximize his time on the court.

KP not letting us down here in the 4th.

Doing the hard work.

It doesn't make sense. KP's offensive usage rate is too low especially in the post.

I think it will go up once the Jays start realizing that the key to a chip is KP.

First thing that the TV broadcast shows after the buzzer was JB and JB dapping each other lol.

Jaylen Brown and JB Bickerstaff..

It helped that it was 7 against 5 tonight. Home cooking tonight.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

JT just trying to piss you guys off.

He knew the Cs already won, so why not jack up a stupid 3, right?

I have A thought.. I think you can make an argument That white is the best role player in the nba right now.. I'll start by saying how he is such a great compliment to almost any style.... An extremely underrated defender and now approveing clutz shooter.. He can't play on the ball or off the ball.. Doesn't need a lot of shots to make an impact.. Probably a great locker room guy. And i'm sure I missed a few..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I mainly just watch the celtics so I can't speak as much to how much players on other teams improve. BUT the amount that White has improved as a shooter compared to the 2022 playoffs when he was scared to take a 3 to what he is now...and the amount Hauser has improved as a defender from going undrafted (mainly because he couldn't defend a chair as a college senior) to what he is now. idk if there's 2 players in the league who have improved at a specific skill over the past couple yrs as much as those 2..

A credit to the work they have both put in and a credit to our coaches.
