I'm pulling for the Suns.

Also want to see Doncic prove his status with an all timer. Doesn’t even have to win, but take it to the wire. 

It’s effortless for him to and probably barring a major injury still a few years away from his prime.

Agree. But year 4-5 is when the all timers typically make their playoff push. LeBron took the worst Cavs team ever to the Finals. Kobe. Shaq did it year 3. Jordan hit the ECF his 4th year I think. Luka is great, at some point he’s gotta get past round 1-2 of the playoffs — and historically, this is the year a lot of greats do that.

I think next year (I’m guessing they make a big splash in free agency) will be the year the Mavs make the next jump. Getting rid of Porzingas and the pick ups they made to compliment Lukas game were fantastic. It was good to see him get past the first round this year though. It does suck they will probably lose Brunson he made himself a ton of money this post season

Milwaukee on life support. Connaughton, Allen, Mathews shooting 1-14 at the moment. 

This game is fucking nuts. Phoenix is completely shitting the bed

Phoenix gave up

Got 1 of the 2. Milwaukee was 4/44 from 3??? Impossible to win lol

I wasn't surprised by the first game. Just chalked it up to game seven at home, Celtics roleplayers outplayed the Bucks. But then the second game turned that on it's head. 

If Luka beats GSW and Boston, he insantly becomes my 2nd favorite player of all time. Would take the throne from Reggie

Can ESPN stop fucking putting Pat Beverly on air? Who gives a shit what this dick has to say?

Because he talked for like an hour total then all day the rest of their program talked about what he said in another one of their programs. ESPN sucks these days. Besides live sports what is worth watching in ESPN.

Miami and Golden State jump out to 1-0 leads. Warriors had pretty emphatic win last night. We’ll see what adjustments Dallas can make. I could see that series going 7.

Boston played without starters Marcus Smart and Horford, so no surprise they lost. Smart (foot) is probable for tonight, while Horford navigates the never ending stupid health and safety protocols. He’s listed as doubtful for tonight but according to Twitter that may actually be a good thing? Idk, I didn’t spend much time looking into it.

Nah, they need Horford. Theiss had to play 20 minutes last game, which is less than ideal.

I meant like it was good he’s listed as doubtful in regards of being able to play. Some were speculating that meant if he had a negative test today he’d be good to go. Idk if it’s true, like I said I didn’t think much about it or begin to understand the madness that is the health and safety protocols. 

I am glad I am living overseas, so I can shun myself away from a bunch of teams I hate playing for a title.

You can do that here too broski.

Aside from Dallas I don’t really care about any of these teams but I just wish not every game was a fucking blowout. 11, 25, and 25 margin of victory so far.

Edit: I shouldn’t say I don’t care. Draymond and the spoiled ass GSW fans can still fuck off. 

These playoffs have sucked. 50% blowouts. Awful games.

You can, but it's much easier in a country that doesn't follow this shit and we are 6 hours ahead. 

What a sloppy ass game by Boston. 23 turnovers, miserable shooting night by Tatum, Butler leaves the game hurt. 

Watching Miami’s perimeter defense and Dallas’ is like night and day. Dallas couldn’t defend shit Friday night. 

Wife’s boss gave us tickets to the Mavs game tonight. Knowing them it will either be a suite or court side. I’m excited to find out.

Probably gonna get the best Mavs game of the series, so thats awesome.

We are 4th row across from Mavs bench it’s awes

Haha there’s a rain delay the roof is leaking

Didn't watch the game tonight, the series has overall been junk. Looks like Butler wasn't ready to be done. I was ready to pencil Boston into the finals before tonight but now with it going back to Miami game 7 on Sunday, who knows. The playoffs have certainly been weird and unpredictable. Boston fans couldn't praise Horford enough and he really laid an egg tonight. 

I think Golden State will easily win against either of these two teams. They've managed to stay remarkably healthy besides GPII who will be back for the finals apparently. Other than maybe tuning into a close game in the 4th quarter, I won't watch a ton of the finals. Don't care for any of the remaining three teams.
