Can this team win their next series without porzingis? Feel like they will need him in the future.

I wanted to punish the Heat and this game felt just about right. I'm satisfied.

D White for VC.

White is the MVP of the series imo. He stepped up.

Nice stress free closeout boys! Celebrate tonight then get back at it…… Cavs will not be an easy out! Time to let the East know who’s boss!

Perfect send off for Mike Gorman.

If Kornet is available for the first two games of the series it's a sweep.

Kept them under 100 4/5 games
Kept then under 90 3/5 games

There will be games where our offense isn’t there but they can choose to bring it on defense every single night. That’s what will win us this title

Does anyone know, was there a specific moment when Luke Kornet suddenly turned into a genuinely good and reliable NBA player?

First he wasn't, then he was, and there was no announcement.

This is a good question. When did it happen? Because I specifically remember thinking he was one of the worst NBA players I've ever seen and then I started liking him.......I don't remember when that happened. It was such a smooth transition :lol:

What's even better now is Luke gained some weight.

He just looks bigger now and at 7-1 or 7-2, oh, boy!

Tatum didn't shoot the ball well in this series, but he averaged a double-double, around 20-10, and he was great as a facilitator.

Love that they smacked them down in an elimination game. Don't play with your food. On to round 2.

Derrick White again with the game ball. Dude is special.
