Gary really saved my life, I can watch other playoff games again without being depressed

DDV missing at the rim. I remember those days

I can't stand the Lakers but LeBron really is something else. Imagine if those early Cleveland rosters weren't total dogwater

That out of bounds wrinkle is wild. That looked like it was oob on Edwards if anything.

Anyone saying Luka is better than 34 should be shamed publicly.

Lakers calling a timeout with 34 seconds to draw up a play for a 13 point shot to tie it up

Seeing both the Luka Lakers and Jokic down 2-1 is nice. Now we need Giannis to win our series to shut the media up

I didn’t watch the Celtics game, but I find it hilarious that it always seems like Jaylen brown is the one calling out other teams for being too physical.

A lot of soft energy emanating from him.

Also, Anthony Black has some of that Jrue-like ability to remain in front well enough, and take it through the chest, that the other guy just hands you the ball.

It’s probably my favorite play to watch. That dude’s for real.

I kinda like how they are being super physical with Boston and seeing how they handle it (not the best)

The last 5 minutes from Ant was the best ball I think I’ve ever seen from him. Distributed super well, handled the doubles, hit big shots, made a couple of really nice defensive plays too.

OKC just challenged a no-call foul on an SGA jumper. I didn’t know you could challenge a play where nothing was called.

Got real bad vibes the other day from Denver but this is a pretty good response from them.

Lot of playoffs left but I got Cleveland winning it all. They don’t have a concrete top 5 guy like okc or Boston but I like their pieces and options more than those teams a little more.
