Yeah, Kemba going into ultra flop mode. We ain’t seen nothin yet.

He'll use Dragic's 1st half performance as inspiration

Is it really necessary for the broadcast to act completely incredulous ever time anyone other than a star manages to do anything beneficial at all.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Miami is gonna win this game but I don't see how they can beat LA.
Lebron>Jimmy
AD>Bam

Miami's other guys will have to dominate to have a chance. Especially Herro and Dragic. Crowder will have to channel his inner Shane Battier and Duncan will have to transform into a high volume splash bro.

Rondo/AC = Dragic
Danny Green = Duncan Robinson
Kuzma <<< Herro
KCP <<< Crowder

Herro really gonna have to go super saiyan I guess it can happen.

I see 1 legit big man between the two teams.

The Celtics have Kanter and Williams, who are flawed but better than Plumlee.


Yeah, being better than Plumlee isn't saying much. Williams is hard to trust. Kanter might be able to push AD out from down low, but I wouldn't expect much else from him on D.

Also, there’s no way Boston or Miami can make it out of the east without getting past Embiid and Giannis, thems too tall!


Ben Simmons was injured. AD is NOT Giannis; he can actually shoot the basketball.

How are the heat not up 20? Shoot 57% and hold an 11-4 FT advantage. Lord. Boston had a nice 3 barage, but lord have no idea how they even have 60 pts.

Tatum is gonna get a ton of FTs this half. Just no way Miami committed only 2 shooting fouls in a half. Give me a break.

Tatum can probably dunk some of those layups he often misses.

There is no possible way that ref can see who that was off. Like he has x-ray vision or something

Are Jackson and Van Gundy going to be calling the Finals, or is that dreadful duo of Webber and Miller going to get some games as well?

These Marcus Smart games scare me. He's played well so far but now he thinks he's Ray Allen and shoots horrible shots
