Boston vs Dallas will be fun!

These playoffs have lowkey been trash outside of like 1-2 series. Bunch of sweeps and blowouts.


Hopefully ,but Boston has some really good Luka and Kai stoppers... it's all about matchups and I'm afraid Dallas doesn't Match Up well with Boston

Celtics are gonna have to win their games against the Mavs by a good margin. If the games come down to the wire, Mav's are not losing. These guys have ice in their veins when it comes to late game execution.

Boston might be favored by Vegas, but they're going to have to show me.

Kat and Ant absolutely crapped the bed this series but Gobert will somehow take all the blame

KAT gave up on this team. He also has a very low BBIQ.

That playoffs are about matchups. And that Dallas is a really good team. Not your typical 5th seed.

I can't believe this site was crowning this Timberwolves team as champions last round.

As I said... It doesn't matter how good the Wolves defense is when they cant score against competent defense.

And there it is.

It's pretty satisfying to see Ant get humbled some.

Mavs have been very impressive. Hopefully Lively can come back this series or against the next one so they can trounce the Celtics.

Oh yeah, Luka should have won MVP.

You mean when they went to 3 straight finals winning two - the hyperbol is insane

No I mean as far as playing off each other so seamlessly. Not saying they're better players. Smh

I’m surprised naz reid didn’t close the game since he’s been the best player for the wolves
