Cavs choking even harder than OKC.

voted most overrated too by nba players, he out to kill those rumors so far..

Wow these Celtics. Even if they maintain this 5 pt lead and win game they are playing like trash and keep trying to hit the three. Mikael Bridges is outplaying Brown and Tatum.

Lol Celtics lose game 2 just like they lost game 1 on a last second defensive stop by Mikael Bridges, this time deflecting a Tatum pass (game 1 he stole the ball right out of Brown's hands). I guess those five 1st round picks are paying dividends.

I don't know why… but I have this weird feeling either the Celtics or the Cavs are going to start their series down 0-3 and come back and win for the first time ever.

Funny with what I posted in Niner Talk about him talking about the niners too

lol im dying from the responses...

These playoffs are something else. Obviously, teams have come back from 2-0 deficits, but Cleveland's 2-0 deficit seems deep. The same could be said for the Celtics, but I have the fresh memory of Knicks' mediocrity to be too comfortable with their 2-0 lead (maybe this crew is different). I wouldn't mind seeing the Knicks and Pacers face off in the ECF again, like they did 30 years ago. Hopefully the Warriors can steal another one in Minnesota. OKC is just steamrolling the Nuggets tonight, the Thunder are the favorites in my mind.

Cavs are missing three starters in Garland, Mobley and Hunter. Jaylen Brown has a bum knee - his explosiveness is gone and he has no lift. Tatum is playing with a bum shooting wrist, and Porzingis can't play one minute now without going out of breath. He played 13 mins in game one. 14 minutes today. Some weird respiratory illness has come back to haunt him. And yet the Celtics lost both games by a combined 4 pts but also missed 75 of 100 three point attempts, lmao. They couldn't hit 2-pointers tonight as well - missed so many gimmes. Anyway, Thunder look unstoppable currently despite the game 1 loss. Yes, teams will get steam-rolled but it's not normal how the Nuggets were tonight.

I still can't believe this version of the Celtics won it all last season. Weakest championship run I've ever seen in any sport

Thunder still aren't in a great position because of the Game 1 loss. Nuggets clearly phoned Game 2 in because they already accomplished their goal of stealing home court.

Now if the Thunder do this again in Denver then yes they're the clear favorites again.
