Mentioned it earlier in this thread... Porzingis is the only member of our top 9 rotation who hasn't played in the Finals. For the Mavs, it's only Kyrie who's played in the Finals.

Celtics in 3.

tired of hearing about Cryie, it's def taken away from the Celtics run / regular season chatter?! Can't wait to see the C's bury these boys in 5/6.

I’m going to poop my pants if we end up in a game 7 with Luka

2nd year in a row that starting center of an NBA champion wore Nuggets gear as a kid.

Why are the Nuggets popular in the Balkan/Baltic states in the early 2000s? Is it because of Linas Kleiza?

List him as DOUBTFUL coming into game 1. Upgrade him at the last possible instance.

Just watched Kristaps' press conference and although he said he'll play i got the sense he is nowhere near 100%, would be shocked if he plays all games/heavy minutes.

Wow, he did not seem too positive in that press conference

Woah, quite a quote. And there was an article that said the ECF that year *was* his scout..

So we beat Miami in the ECF when it was his scout, then lost in NBA finals when it wasn't..

Luka is shooting 43/34 in the playoffs, feel like he's getting a lot more credit for that than he should lol. Like he's a great player, but people were mad Wolves lost a game that took a step back 3 over Gobert that had like a 25% chance to go in.

I fully expect several fatalities among the Mavs before their gut-wrenched straggling remains make it back to Dallas...
No one survives the Celtics unleashing their Giant Venomous Flying Spiders Of Death Defense.

Don't say, I didn't warn you...

It's crazy how the media is pushing this narrative where Luka is the next GOD. General Board, besides Celtics fans, everyone is rooting for Mavs. Instagram posts, flood about how Mavs will stomp on the Celtics, how we saw this story before with Dirk leading the way past 26 yrs old James...blah blah
