Home court is a big deal when playoff teams are closely matched. It's why I expect the Suns to beat Dallas and then beat the Warriors in 7. But neither is some lock.

What really separates the Suns from the Mavs, IMO, is team ball. Mavs are very reliant on one guy. Team ball is also why the Celts are better than the Bucks.

I like the Suns tonight, too. That could work in the Warriors favor, though. Suns will be less rested in Game 1, so it could be a good opportunity for the Warriors to steal homecourt. Overall, I like the Warriors' chances against either the Mavs, Suns, or Heat. The Celtics are the only team that looks really scary to me. Tatum is like a new Durant, and they have lots of size and athleticism all over their roster.

Monty just said the Suns are going to win in a blowout.

So it is basically a lock for Dallas now.

Kind of the way I feel when I watch a Wisconsin football game. If I could make a recommendation, there’s this hot new shit called the forward pass. Wisconsin should work on that shit.

I rarely pay attention to the NBA anymore, but I tuned this in until the 3rd quarter.

My takeaways:

1 - The refs fucking suck.
2 - Traveling is legal, now.
3 - Boston fans are wicked annoying.
4 - The floor is shitty as fuck at MSG.
5 - Flopping should result in a technical. That silly shit is why I stopped watching the NBA in the first place.

2 has been the case since at least Jordan’s peak

1 is a given

Totally agree with 5

If white remembers the go to shoot, I like bostons chances

But he’s been shooting horrid for a while now.

Need some positive regression

I will not cheer for the Celtics, but I will root for the Heat to lose.

Milwaukee just needs to keep shooting the 3, eventually they will fall down
