Boogeyman Celtics are very lucky the Pacer young inexperienced guys can’t close out games

If there's one thing that's consistent about every NBA season, it's that from about game 25 through the All-Star Break, every media pundit and fan seem to forget the lessons learned from the playoffs regarding what style of play should be valued vs what is a regular season gimmick. That is the time of year where players like Rudy Gobert and Domantas Sabonis thrive.

Since we are committed to landing whales, Im glad we passed on Kyrie.

I don't care what good things KAT does, I wouldn't be able to handle all the insanely idiotic/bad/soft things.

I can't imagine what it feels like for GopherIt to have to watch this chit every game. How do your remotes/cell phones survive?

With Boston's luck this is going 7

What a blunder from Mavs, that 9 days break is badly needed.

[Flash4thewin]

Celtics getting more rest ugh.

[powerball1373]

Celtics getting more rest ugh.

Celtics were getting the same amount of rest either way, only difference is now the Mavs get a little less rest. Inb4 Luka hurts his knee and Boston gets another injury-fueled cakewalk smh.

Lotta teams messed up, that's the game-- that's one of the reasons why it's so great

I'm ready for Celtic's championship tbh at this point, lol. I think Bob Knight said this, if the rape is inevitable you might sit back n enjoy it or something.

If we strike out on all the big targets I wonder if KAT could play his value low enough for us to sneak in with a Herro trade.


Rozier
Robinson
Jimmy
KAT
Bam

Doesn't look bad at all.

Understand the idea but do not believe in KAT.

Jacking up bricks while Ant is out there doing everything to keep Minny in this series.

I can’t stand KAT but I don’t understand this stance. Edwards has been ass this series too and had like 4 points in the 4th of a winnable game where he looked like he didn’t even want to touch the ball, 2 of his points in the 4th came down 10 with 10 seconds left or something. He definitely shrunk and I don’t understand the inside the nba guys gassing him up after scoring 26 points on 24 shots in a must win game.

It's not that complicated. Don't go out there making claims as the best shooting big man then absolutely shyiat the proverbial bed with an atrocious 3 pt shooting %. Second KAT has been in the league how long??? And earned serious criticism on his soft mentality. Hell, the Jimmy criticism of KAT is well known and validated by others like Jeff Teague.

At the end of the day, Minny follows Ant and not KAT. There's a reason for that!

[spectrec130]

yes this was quite the surprised. I thought Luka & Kyrie wouldn't get this far since they both need the ball and the Kyrie antics but I forgot Kyrie made it work with LBJ in Cleveland.

Extremely surprised by the 3-0 lead but IIRC someone in here said that Minny was in trouble cuz Dallas is a serious matchup issue for 'em.

I'm not sure if you mean me ...

Minny can take Dallas and whoever comes out of the east. They are taking the chip.

Irony for Jimmy is that KAT might get a chip, and Jimmy likely won’t at this point.

The Mavs have two guys that can break down a defense, so it may not be as easy as you think. Trying to contain Luka and Kyrie at the same time is going to be a headache.

But I didn't go so far as to say that Minny was in trouble. I did say the series wasn't going to be the cakewalk that everyone was predicting for the Wolves. But I'm as surprised as everyone else that the series is 3-0 Mavs. No one could have predicted that KAT would be playing this bad.

Am sure it wasn't you. But will stand corrected that may have conflated with another Heat content from Reddit or Youtube. The match-up issue was harped on and very detailed that Minny will have a hard time with a lead 7 points or less late in the 4th to close out a game vs Irving n Doncic!
