Tatum and Ingram are some of the best "tough shot" makers

They are making a run, we'll see how this goes. I'm just scouting
some players to see if the Lakers correct their ways...

They're pretty good even without Smart.
But waiting to see the adjustments by Miami in the 2nd quarter.


I meant 3rd quarter.
C'mon Miami

I don't see how the Warriors can't beat the Celtics. Dray could probably guard Tatum, and the Warriors have more experience and championship pedigree than any other team.

Plus Steph, Klay and Dray are probably hungry after what they've had to deal with the last three years.

Brown is sucking it up for Boston, his shot selection has been horrible.

NBA players are such sissies, most wouldn’t last 2 minutes in the NHL.

Loving this game! Celtics haven't seen a team defense this good in the Playoffs.. Giannis might be better then anyone but this Heat team is deep and so well coached.. You also have Jimmy ready to rip hearts out in crunch time with Spo making adjustments and not letting the Celtics find success and milk it with no changes like the Bucks to end the last series.

Ok I was kinda wrong about Miami. Butler has elevated the play of his teammates by a significant amount.

Since the Lakers are a dumpster fire..........

Clippers lost, out of the playoffs early...

Pray the Celtics lose, 4-0 Heat would be nice ..........

Then basically, it's a wash for me. If the Lakers lose, as long as Clips and Celtics don't get a ring.

He is mentally tough and a very talented guy. He has put in the work, even though he does go Prima Donna with regularity these days.

Yeah the thing with Butler is he's not a regular season guy. He'll coast and then turn it up at the very end. He did lead the Heat to the finals before, so it's not like he didn't have a track record. Philly missed the forest for the trees.
