[Shanemansj13]

It’s one game. They probably win 4 straight now

 

[Pastafazul]

Thanks Detroit for wakin up the Knicks

 

[The Q]

Sorry I don’t know what you are talking about. All I ever see is Tatum and Brown 1-on-1 vs the switch against CLE

Yeah that’s the problem

They are not plus hall handlers

Move the fucking ball

 

[The Q]

They’re done either way

Burn it down

 

[The Q]

I've always felt Tatum is one of weaker superstars.

Takes too many 3s for just an average shooter.

Because he’s a below average ball handler

He needs to use his size to his advantage more

20 point lead and sit on throwing 3s … that game sucked from the get go
Knicks did play well though … didn’t even need Brunson magic at the end

 

[DrewScott]

Eff you Bill Simmons, hope you have a sleepless night.

All of the Celtics have become Rasheed Wallace. Very good players that discover the can hit a three and fall too much in love with it forgetting it is only one of the tools in their bag, not the only tool.

Boston is an interesting team. They've had weak years where they should have won and lost to inferior teams. I still they're the favorite.

I feel like this is one of the stronger years in recent memory.

It feels like teams are actually going to win games by making shots instead of the team that throws up the least amount of bricks.

 

[Albuquerque Rams]

Yep for doing the same thing they did all season…take 3’s and more 3’s and when the 3’s aren’t going down…take more 3’s

Same thing that prevented the Rockets from dethroning the Warriors years ago.

No team has even blown a 20 point lead in the playoffs and won the title

They’re done

I really thought the Magic series woulda knocked some of that reliance down on the 3 … the entire team sat on the perimeter the entire 4th

they’ll take this series … but yeah, dropping a 20 pt lead will stick in their heads for the duration fer sure

 

[Stakesarehigh]

That was absolutely a shot

What is brown doing raising his arms if he’s not shooting. And that’s when the contact occurs

Bruh

Kick it over to Tatum there.

Holy shit. Waking up in Europe Damn

Nice.

What part?

 

[Albuquerque Rams]

Just saw a stat showing that 19 of Boston's 20 FG attempts in the third quarter were from three. Utterly ridiculous.

Holy crap … I shut the game off at 3 minutes to play cuz my brain has this years playoff bracket as a 1,2,3 ( maybe 1,3,2) seed done … this is great … let’s hope for some great games
I didn’t see Denver finishing like they did … shame on me
