I'm disappointed in this bunch. By now everyone should be wondering if any team can keep the Celtics from winning back to back championships. The sky is falling folks. Lets get with it.

They went from having a decent starting lineup last year, then added a top notch lead guard, and when healthy, a true modern big who isnt afraid to put up shots. They really improved.

They made the moves they needed to to try and win it all.

Heck, the Mavs did pretty much the same with Kyrie and Lively.

Have we ever seen a star player get carried to a championship like we’re witnessing with Tatum? And the overwhelming consensus today is that he “controlled the game” mfer he had 16 points on 16 shots and 6 turnovers, he didn’t control anything :lol:

Basketball discourse these days just makes me fuxking sick, people are dumb as hell.

Mavs hopefully bounce back game 2.

Celtics aren’t special.

I think ABC/ESPN made a huge mistake in letting go of the best talent. It would have been nice to have Mark Jackson and Van Gundy calling the game. The pregame show is not good. Why do you have a panel full of people who never played in the NBA or don't know basketball???

Part of it is matchups. If the Nuggets made it out, the Celtics would have had more trouble, not sure about the Wolves because it depends what version of Kat shows up.

Also not sure about the whole Tatum getting carried crowd is coming from, we cant get mad the Celtics front office is actually doing their job and trying to win. Look at our front office in contrast and one cant help but get mad.

PJ Washington cant be just an average defender in this series. He has to shine defensively and offensively in order for the Mavs to win this series.

The Mavs just need to make some defensive adjustments. Washington should be guarding Tatum, Derrick Jones on Jaylen Brown, Luka on Holiday, Gafford on Porzingis, and Kyrie on White

May wanna give F1 Grand Prix a try to fill in the time.... Canada (Montreal) and Spain (Barcelona) are the next 2 races!

I do watch F1. Great season so far since Max Verstappen isn't winning every race by 30 seconds. My boy Lando Norris finally won a race, here in Miami of all places! Charles LeClerc finally broke his Monaco curse. Carlos Sainz on a revenge tour before going out of contract with Ferrari. But there's only one race in the three week gap until Copa América. Spain isn't until the weekend after it starts.


Watched the Miami GP rooting for Lando.... So glad he got his first dub with McLaren!

Yeah Verstappen is just absolute unit out there.... smh.... Dudes running rough shod which IMO at times hurts the sport!

Canada GP was a dope race, good palate cleanser for boring-ass Monaco. I forgot this weekend is Le Mans!
