Thanks for creating a thread in such short notice. Looks like the excitement died a bit lol. I have no idea what to expect in Game 3. Just please take some risks in this game Coach Cliff, that's all I ask.

Hopefully they can win one of the next two, to have the series tied 2-2 going into game 5. I just want to see how Giannis handles the pressure.

I think its really gonna come down to getting off to a good start if we have a 1st quarter that resembles anything from game 2 I think it will be a big fat L. They can win this but the pace and flow of the game has to be closer to game 1 of course. Go magic

I thought the game started at 1? Did they delay the start?

I haven’t seen it mentioned yet, but Gordon and Michael Carter-Williams are out.
Remember when Kobe elbowed Jameer in the chin so hard Jameer was knocked down and sent skidding across the floor?

True :( BUT! Stan Van Gundy commentating on the game. Our good luck charm is in the building

Those loose ball 50/50 postion will win or lose you games. You habe to come up with those. They almost always lead to second chance points.

Sure looked like Middleton was out of bounds on that 50/50 scramble.

Notably, #10, who lazily swatted at the ball twice instead of diving on it. Not like its a playoff game or anything.
