East
Boston Celtics vs. Miami Heat

I like how the Heat have a center. And I like Butler.

Brown is the most consistent of Boston's players, to me. Tatum can score a lot, but I think other players do more.

Miami in 7.

Larry Bird trophy: Jimmy Butler

West
Denver Nuggets vs. Los Angeles Lakers

I've picked Denver to lose almost every series since 2019.

Anthony Davis has finally been consistent the past few games.

I still don't like how Denver only has 1 All-Star, and only won 53 games as a #1 seed.

I guess I'll pick Denver. It helps when your best player can rebound.

Magic Johnson trophy: Nikola Jokic

I guess I've picked series that aren't 2-2 after 4 games, in this round.

I forgot to do the trophy presenters. I'll get back to it.

 

[nuraman00]

I've never seen a player with 12 rebounds in a quarter before.

And he had 5 assists!

Jamal Murray has had an ear infection for several days.

 

[nuraman00]

Great game so far tonight between Miami and Boston.

 

[nuraman00]

Nice pass by Adebayo to Strus.

 

[nuraman00]

Miami with 45 points in the 3rd.

102 - 91, end of the 3rd.

 

[nuraman00]

114 - 109, 4+ minutes left.

 

[nuraman00]

I love how Butler keep stealing the ball. We need to see more of this in the regular season from him too.

 

[nuraman00]

Lol that was the stupidest travel by Tatum.

That would have been called in NBA Jam T.E. too.

 

[nuraman00]

Gabe Vincent and Caleb Martin have been prepared to ready, aim, fire.

I hate how Denver takes 3's on fast breaks most of the time. Their shooters aren't that good.

79 - 76, end of the 3rd.

 

[nuraman00]

That was a great game and great 4th quarter on Friday.

@MHSL82, what were your predictions? Or who were you rooting for?

Butler should sit. Don’t risk injury:

@MHSL82, what were your predictions? Or who were you rooting for?

Bump.

 

[MHSL82]

@MHSL82, what were your predictions? Or who were you rooting for?

Neither. I guess I presumed it would be Nuggets and Celtics, but didn’t want Celtics to win and didn’t care if Nuggets won.
