Jrue Holiday odds of FMVP have definitely gone way up.

Jrue is the definition of a winner. Nothing but respect.

Luke dogging it there. He makes a terrible live ball turnover (take the 7 second) throws arms up at his teammate. Then he doesnt’ cover Jute for 3.

Ya gotta be locked in and play winning basketball. That isn’t it.

Tatum quietly one rebound shy from a hard-earned triple double

Celtics haven't lost a road game in the playoffs without him, but strong take. LOL.

basically Mavs will need Kyrie to be the 3rd best player in each game for a chance to win...averaging ~30 ppg

Back to back 3s from White and Holiday should do it. Celtics are just too damn deep and the Mavs need a perfect game to just make the game close.

Expecting a hard fought pair of games in Dallas and Celtics might steal one (Game 4 i think).

Jrue was so great in NO but just didn't have the stars around him. So glad he finally got his props after going to Milwaukee and now Boston.

MIN is very weak on the perimeter. Only Edwards can make a play consistently
