Correct me if I'm wrong, Smart isn't playing? They haven't resurrected him from the dead for the 2nd game in a row?

This Miami/Celtics series might be the most boring 'close' series i have ever seen.

3 game of the series where it is over within the fist quarter.

 

[Memphis]

JT gone all Harden tonight with the FTs.

Add to that the skill levels at times is mind blowing bad, the Celtics are a great defensive team but the Heat missed so many bunnies in that first quarter.

Started 0-14 before their first make.

* I love big AL.

The whole playoffs this season has been underwhelming.

 

[Borough Blood]

Distinct lack of chirp in here today.

Stephen A Smith says Miami should seek permission to be allowed back into the state. They are pathetic, despite the lopsided FT and foul count

FT
boston 38
miami 14

Fouls
boston 15
miami 26

If you think this has been bad, wait until GS win the finals in a sweep.

I doubt they will, not even convinced they win the finals although I hope they do.

Besides at least the Warriors are fun to watch, probably the most fun team to watch even in blow outs.

You just know if it's Boston and GSW in the finals it's bombs away.

There needs to be 2-3 days break between each game, IMO.

Whoever makes the Finals from the East is going to be seriously exhausted. GSW having a more cruisy time.

I do agree somewhat but that’s the reward they get for winning in less games I suppose

That will be the best series imo. No way the Warriors sweep the Celtics

At least 6.

I don't know, I've been finding it quite fun....

Draymond now has more playoff threes than Dirk and Michael Jordan.

Haha just seen 7 news highlights of Celtics game - ahhh is it 4 steps now to be considered a travel in the NBA?( Sorry followed NBA during the Olajuwon era) Saw 2 lay ups of I think they said "Tate" and carried the ball 3 steps

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Strange old series this, who is starting ice cold in game 5 ?

 

[Lego77]

Is Bam the biggest flat track bully in the NBA? Goes off when Embiid and Timelord are out but barely even attempts a shot when they come back in?

Legit terrified of elite bigs

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

18 points total from a starting five. That would have to be some sort of record wouldn't it?
