It wouldn’t have mattered in this series without Khris but having hca as long as you can is always a sustainable, recipe for success. It doesn’t guarantee a trip to the later rounds of course as we see now, but having the best player + more games at home is usually all you need.

The heat are in the ecf not because they’re one of the two best teams in the east(they’re still really good), but because they had the two easiest opponents thus far. You can sleep walk through the regular season, but I feel a week or two before all star break is when you should start to put streaks together to position yourself to get as high as you can without going all out.

Luka should probably sit now, Jason.

Giannis' first quarter of game 6 was about as good as an individual can be and we trailed. His first quarter today was almost as good and we only led by 6. I am pretty bummed watching role players help out Luka right now.

There is no official law, but you can not lose by 40 at home as a 1 seed in game 7.

They are the Anti-Bucks.

A bunch of great ISO scorers taking turns.
A bunch of trully ELITE snipers letting it fly and making them consistently like layups.
Switch everything defense without having a normal center on the court forcing the non all star center to become Shaq or kill the flow of his team's offense.

Monty gets to be interviewed between quarters.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Mavs should troll them and just take 24 second violations the entire 4th quarter and not score a single point lol.

Last year might've been CP3's last great run. He has looked gassed this series and not sure he has any high level playoff runs left in him. It'll be interesting to see what Phoenix is like next year. They're in 2020 Bucks territory atm.

The Mavs role players scored as many jumpshots tonight as the Bucks role players did in the whole celtics series.

Is this actually a legit stat? It feels like it might be.

Boston may just steamroll these other teams. We lost the title on Friday night. Too bad

Yeah it just feels like it.

3pt step back = sure
3pt in the fastbreak = why not
Midrange step backs = all night
Long floaters = easy work
3pt catch and shoot = 24/7

Did we ever have a playoff game that Giannis , Khris and Jrue shot like that in the same night?

Luka = 12/19
Spencer = 11/15
Brunson = 11/19

They put the end of their bench and they still can't miss any jumpshots.
They hit everything!
