This is the worst I’ve seen the Celtics play all season and they’re barely down


Conversely, OKC is doing this on the road without their second-best player.


OKC is incredible. Not taking anything away from them.

Derrick White is such a cheat code of a role player. Literally perfect.

Phoenix is just so flawed defensively that negates any offensive advnatge they have ( which is lacking outside the big 3)..too bad

Congrats Thunder fans. Great game. OKC is simply the superior team at this point. They and the Cavs should be the title favorites

Good game OKC fans, it would be a hell of a Finals matchup that’s for sure.

Great game OKC, as a fan of the NBA in general I can only hope they find their way to the finals this time around.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Porzingis isn't going to be able to show up for the first time in the Finals this year.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Stop complaining about the free throws differences when all you do is just jacking up 3!

Lamelo Ball is really shooting 40% from the field on 22 FGA and 33% from 3 on almost 12 3PA, that's crazy

i haven't played fantasy basketball in years but man he must have killed alot of fantasy teams this season. are there no coaches to this team? no FO? so weird...
