Not a chance JT & JB lose a playoff series.

We had a chance against Boston, but that was before Boston got Kristaps Porzingis to shut down Giannis. Mentally, Giannis will pretty much be toast in pregame warmups when he looks over and sees Porzingis.

Just hand Boston the trophy now.

All this talk about Boston when Miami just made the biggest power move of the season adding Patty Mills.

Revamping NBA TV into something people actually watch would be a start for sure.

It’s a given the Heat will eliminate the Bucks again. But Celtics will get past them in the ECF on their way to the title. It will likely be the greatest ECF of all time. Celtics will then sweep the finals. They will finish the playoffs 16-3 with all three loses being one point loses at Miami at the buzzer to Jimmy Butler shots. #CelticsYear #LeprechaunsUp #SixStarters

Instead of celebrating how good he is and framing it around how great of a franchise building block he is for the Spurs we get this. It's embarassing.

Ramona Shelburne stinks. She'll play the victim when she cops it on social media but she knows exactly what she's doing in that segment.

We live in an era where teams/cities couldn't mean less to new fans and they only follow the players, yet the media lives in ancient times where only the best players can be in 3 markets.

Watching Orlando/Charlotte currently. Orlando is pretty good, (right?), but every player on their team is afraid of shooting a three. It’s basically the opposite of our problem. They’ve got 6 points in 6 minutes against Charlotte, disgusting.

Also, miles bridges is freaking terrible. It looks like he’s going through a divorce or something?

Grant Williams is the Brian Anderson of the NBA

The Knicks getting blown out at home by Atlanta? Apparently Detroit knew what they were doing

Sneaking suspicion New York pulls this one off? Dare I say it seems a little scripted

What do you mean? Haven’t you seen how well Gabe Vincent has been doing in LA?

Boston is a scary ass team. They have 4 legit star players with one being a super star and a ton a great role players.

Anytime you’re watching Dallas or Indiana, you’re thinking they should be better. But Dallas VERSUS Indiana? Man should they both be better

(Hitting all overs for all four quarters though)

I just can’t root for Boston under any circumstance even if it would be helpful to the Bucks.

Right, I'm rooting for Cle here. Quite the comeback. And as much as I acknowledge Bos is the best team and rightly should be viewed as the favorites this 4th Q has pretty much showed why I still can't quite get to believing they're going to win it all. Its been the same issues of the last several playoffs of one on one contested Js that get so much harder come playoffs. Come playoffs can they stick with a more fluid system instead of reverting to this stuff again. And of course TBF, without ridiculous shooting from Cle they still win this game easily (and still might pull it out as I type). And I get they might just outtalent everyone and it doesn't matter.

Don't wanna go homer and say we're gonna beat them. But say its them vs Den I'm taking Den.
