Absolutely , all the retching in November now paying off in spades in June.

ESPN really just wants to cry about the fouls.. they were bad both ways.

But that was easily a block for six on Luka and Washington clearly turned his shoulder into Holiday on rhe backcourt screen. QQ, cry more.

Jays probably deserve my two votes, but what fun would that be.

I voted Tillman and Hauser. Tillman hit a 3 & Hauser was kind of dominant on defense. Tillman in particular was responsible for at least two or three momentum changing plays.

Refs helped us by fouling out Luka, but props to Jaylen for drawing the foul anyways.

One minute left in the third - is where I thought it went wrong. We needed a timeout IMO, DWhite banked in a three anyways, but we never really regained composure. IIRC Joe was also a play or too late to call his first timeout in the 4th, and when he eventually did call a timeout, team didn't respond coming out of it.

Was disappointed that neither Tillman or Hauser saw the floor in the fourth, as Pritch hadn't been playing real well, and I thought Al looked a bit frantic as the Mavs were making their run in the 4th, as opposed to cool and confident, and I felt like that contributed to our late collapse. Not that Tillman would have shown better poise per se.

Jrue wasn't bad at all tonight, but it wasn't one of his better games of late, and I think there was correlation with how the team played as a whole down the stretch.

Thank you Stevens for having the balls to make the trades Danny wouldn't of. White and Jrue are crazy finds and they did this almost exclusively without KP who would be the second or first best player on 15 other teams.

The wait is almost over.

I won't enjoy this championship until the matter of the pick swap is resolved.

Great win, on the road, championship mentality, baby! One more, let's go(Paul Pierce)!

Important to note, that we won and again shot .170 from 3.. :o Jays combined for 6 of 22... crazy.
Good assessment:

Shaq is a legend, but outside of being entertaining, he's not intelligent enough to analyze games, same goes for Chuck.

The ghost of jb calling out jb is crazy

He **** delivered in the best way too.

Shoutout to Sammy Cassell, who was part of our 08 championship team, now an intergeal part of Joe's assistants

Maybe Brad's most underrated move of the off season, Cass is very highly regarded league wide.
Really hope we can hang onto him next season.
