Series Thread: Eastern Conference Finals: Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat

No but looks like @dtgold88 is up for it, per usual

Just the one comment...same as you. Never expected him to own how absurd the comment was.

Herro was incredible last night. Still trying to figure out what happened to Tatum in the first half though. He had a damn good second half. But it wasn't enough.

simple as "shit happens" I think.

Anyone who has played fanduel for a while gets this. If there was some formula, especially in a series where it's the same teams going against each other, guys would do the same thing every game.....and we know that is not the case.

Noticed the winners of the GPP last night had Herro in a top 3 spot. Now good for them, but no way anyone could have known that would be the right play.

There is far more randomness in the outcomes of sports games than any of us would really care to acknowledge.

I can't recall a player ever having a game like that in playoffs can you?

Not much more comical than After the Fact Guy who "knew" what guys would do in the fanduel forum. I don't go there as much as I used to but was hilarious.

Maybe not zero one half then 28, but I've seen guys struggle one and go off in the other.

Cleveland is more appreciative. I can guarantee that, problem is, it's doesn't happen too often lol

I left out Cleveland because I don't have enough data.

I've been hard on Spo, but this is likely his most impressive coaching season in his career. That includes his Big 3 years, 2 of which where he won a title. He somehow pulls off a title with this group (5 hard wins to go). His career is cemented.

He's probably a top 3 coach, along with Pop and I guess Stevens? Kerr?

Titles can be so misleading. Stevens is a good coach, but, because Stevens hasn't won a title I can't put him above Spo. So yeah, I'd have Spo behind Pop and Kerr. And Pop's likely on his way out in a couple of years.

Stevens isn't on Spo level

Remember when some anonymous source from Boston try to say there's no difference between Bam & Theis?

If you cannot put stevens above spo because Spo has a title, how are you saying titles can be so misleading?

Not saying I'd put stevens above Spo. I would not.

Anyone that would put Stevens (36-35 in the playoffs) over Spo (82-49) should just stop watching the NBA immediately.
