Crazy to think how he might've been the best HS player in the country ever since he was 14 or 15. Also insane to me that Emoni Bates is the same way loll. League is in such great hands.
LeBron's NBA Cup MVP is more valuable than either of KD's Finals MVPs. This is the word of the Lord

So do we start looking at Playoff Rondo as late career Jason Kidd now?

Kuzma is getting abused for the second game in a row.

AD seems to always fall for pump fakes, an awful habit

Caruso making himself useful on offense even though he can't shoot.

I don't know if I'm the only one, but I always hold my breath when Davis falls.

And locking up MPJ...

We need to win tonight to get more rest

Hoping Miami wins that series in 7 so we even get more rest

AD and Lebron need treatment and time for ankles

Calling McGee trash would be disrespectful to trash at this point.

I never really understood why Jokic has a habit of taking those full court fouls. That first foul by Jokic to stop the break was dumb when he took it and it's dumber now with him picking up his 3rd.

Also, Caruso did a better job on Jokic there than McGee has all series lmao

That guy who argued Mcgee wasnt a problem because of his positive plus minus owes everyone an apology

I'm not smart enough to notice exactly what adjustment the Lakers have made on offense, but LeBron is seeing so much more space today and getting to the rim at will. Good on Vogel.

**** looks like it man. I mean, he essentially was a lesser J. Kidd earlier in his career no?

Feels like we are dominating....yet we are only up 10

AD not been so good rn, I hope that ankle is ok

Really need to close this out and let him get treatment and time to recover

Hoping that Boston wins game 6 and Miami wins game 7 if I could get things my way

He's a lot more decisive taking it to the hoop obviously, but it doesn't look like the spacing's any different really. Was he dealing with something last game? Is it because Jokic is out??

Yeah, that was me and I'll stand by what I said . . . in that specific game. Watch the first 8 minutes of game 3 and show me where JaVale McGee was a problem. He was awful in his 2 minutes tonight. I never advocated playing him - I specifically said he should be glued to the bench. But people in here are lazy with analysis sometimes and just point to JaVale as an easy target when he wasn't the issue in that game. Rondo & Morris were culprits 1 & 2 yet people were going in on McGee who was only responsible for 1 bad defensive possession in that game by my count and did enough on offense to more than make up for it.
