Great take.

So tonight's effort is good in your eyes?

Awesome take.

No??

They shot like **** from the get go, the refs are clearly calling the game very tight because the NBA hates a sweep in the finals and Dallas just played like there was nothing to lose.

**** happens.


You meant the refs were calling it very tight against the Cs but not the Mavs right?

Not. Worried.

Not worried either but this team does need some more athleticism up front. Zinger being out and Al looked caught in between all night (wasn’t all his fault tho obviously).

Hard to support a team like that fr. One thing to lose while players play with effort. Another thing to play like you dgaf at all

Bird would have won 4 rings with that team, in this weak ass era of basketball.

Let me know when Larry or MJ suit up for the Cs in this series

Boston is vastly superior to this Mavs team so they don’t need MJ or Larry and will win it on Tuesday.

I think what I hoped has already come to fruition: viewtopic.php?p=113691826#p113691826

But we lost the game in astonishing fashion, sheeeet.

Of Jaylen and Jayson, whoever plays better in Game 5 will win Finals MVP now.

Hopefully we will win, I shall add!

Yes.

Lost count of the number of holds, hand fouls etc that were called in the other games that they’ve let go for Dallas.

Meanwhile we breathe near a Mav and it’s a foul.

This. People are losing their minds for no reason.

It’s all going to be okay people.

My nephew and I are going to Game 5 in the “cheap” seats so I definitely have mixed emotions about tonight

Although I can agree with that every single player sucked tonight. The offense was stagnant predictable with not much attacking especially against a horrible defender..

And the defense gave up what a 100 points in the lane. With a ton of rebounds.. That had nothing to do with PP.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Just flat out embarrassing at this point.


Nobody cares about being right or wrong fella. People are negative because they have been given reasons to be over and over for like 5 years +. It’s the positive ones that are a bit wild at this point. Until this team finishes the job, there will always be a little ‘choke’ cloud over their heads. Getting bent over with the trophy in sighht like this won’t help their cause.

3-1 lead in the finals and still time to be negative about it all.

Just absurd.

156-0 with a 3-0 lead, soon to be 157-0.


This entire convo started with ‘IF we lose game 5, boyy oh boy’..nobody even said they would lose. You’re like the Jrue Holiday of forums..always so damn defensive.

If Pritchard misses his first shot then bench him right away in game 5

I actually think a game like this is easier to move on from. Your mentally already ready for the next game. Your not in a dog fight and lose late. Tired and trying to climb back in it and thinking so close.
