I should say I will never accept the Celtics going down 0-3 to these chumps. That Martin near-airball just sent me over the edge.
Is Denver the best halfcourt offense I have ever seen. The dominant Warriors has the best modern O but k don’t know if they were better in the halfcourt.
Who would have ever thunk getting a big wing like Tatum, I mean Aaron Gordon, underneath against Gabe Vincent might be a good idea.
Drives me nuts...and added that he thrives because what he has instead of athleticism is great passing and knowledge of the game. Um...a great shooter, amazing touch, remarkable strength, and while he can't jump he has very light feet. But, yeah, he's not an athlete because he can't jump.
The Celtics organization just doesn't know how to get the most out of their players' talent. Players & coaching. That's my hot take.
This is a dominant team. Gentleman’s sweep TWolves, lose 2 to Booker and Durant, Sweep LBJ&Davis, and this looks like the easiest series they played so far.
Will playoff Jimmy get a game? Heat only chance looks like injuries.

Yeah…it really pisses me off.
Heat are 4-17 from 3….and at least 5 of those have been wide ass open misses
Some journalist needs to do a deep dive on the NBA halftime show circuit. Tonight it's the acrobat who has a tiny nervous dog named Scooby. Sometimes it's the chubby middle aged guy who balances objects on his chin or the unicycle lady who balances bowls and plates. It's fascinating.
That does seem to be the case. It would be nice if they had more of a system other than “shoot a lot of 3’s”
I only know about this shit from league pass. Should be a magazine feature. What about the chair climbing old bro
Yeah. Lot of people criticised Cs defense, and reasonably, but it felt like every frickin one of those sort-of contested shots - that should go in at what, 40%, assuming you're not playing Peak Steph Curry - would go in, or at least every one when the Celts were getting some momentum.
Meanwhile tonight I see the same guys bricking with no-one within three feet.
Keep reminding myself that the alternative is not seeing Miami getting their asses kicked, which is worse.
it could all be variance but it seems like Denver scores so easily that it puts a lot of pressure on Miami to keep up. Cs had so many bricks they never put that pressure on them.
i dont think so boston has a lot of talent yes tutum wouild been less than 100% but with r-will on joker if boston shot well it still goes 7 bottom line the nuggents need to send pat riley and ja morent rings because if Ja does not flash his gun memphis gets homecort they were only 2 games out and ja missed like 10 games i doubt denver makes it throuht LA in round one with a fresh lebron and then G state who swept the nuggets last year
Watching Miami get shit stomped is a nice consolation but it's going to take more than four blowouts to get those awful Game 7 images out of my head. On the flip side, Denver could not have asked for a better match up.
Denver with healthy j Murray, porter, and additions of kcp and b brown is a much better team than 2022
Martin and Strus still haven't made a FG.
Oh, Kobe just hit the side of the backboard on a 3. Please kill me.

Yeah, this is fair. It's hard to think you'd get outcomes such as those which occurred without doing *something* seriously wrong.
good q i guess its because its hard to have 2 great teams in the same city that if the nuggets are good the broncos will suck
Good luck to the Heat in the second half of the first game they've played at altitude since... December 30th.
When does Lowry decide "we're not winning unless Joker's limited/hurt/out, time for some Heat Culture" and starts hacking at Jokic's hands?
Porter Jr would fit in well with the Celtics. Amazing talent. Takes a lot of questionable shots.
Early evidence is Denver responds to Miami runs with good energy. And I wish I had bet on martin returning to poop
hopefully the jets will have a good season for your sake maybe a 1998 AFC champ game rematch
