I swear the Boston-Milwaukee series has been the only entertaining games of the playoffs.

I said that was the finals but this Miami Boston series is a slugest. Battle of attrition.

Phoenix fans must be pissed: "Why didn't they miss all these shots against us?"

Yeah, it's ugly, and although the series is competitive, the individual games haven't been other than the brief comeback by Boston in game 3. No reason for a non-affiliated fan to watch these games.

Game over.

Luka needs to score more next game. 55-60 points should get the job done.

Warriors won't win the next one. They will lose so they can win at home.

Not sure how this team made it out of the first round

CuZ Jazz suck

The “Curse” of the Barkley prediction lives on!

Golden State is about to win their 18th consecutive Western Conference Playoff Series. They haven't lost in playoffs to a West team since 2014 (Clippers).

Yep

Draymond was correct, they don’t need KD to win another ring.

What are these fools doing cheering outside the arena? They should go home and cry like proper NBA fans.

It is pretty amazing dude. Lakers and Chicago Bulls never did this shit. LeBron did it personally in the East from 2011-18 but with different teams.

The similarities between this series and athe 2019 WCF are striking. You got a team with a HOF #1 option (Dallas' has an easier time to get his own shot) but both Nico/Olshey have failed to surround their #1 guy with the appropriate #2/#3 options to attack a team as loaded as Golden St is.

I feel like we were more competetive and Dame was worn out after the Denver series.

Yeah, I'd make a case we were more competetive (minutes led stat would support this) and that our roster was worse than Dallas'. Luka is probably slightly better on his own (due to his size) and we had the better coach.

We were much more competitive and we were playing Meyers heavy minutes.

one team would over pay Wiggins lol

Luka right now feels like early career Lebron in Cleveland.

Luka must be trash.

 

[MickZagger]

Luka is like 23 and carrying a team full of nobodies. Maxie Kleber and Bertrans logging big minutes. I mean when your 2nd and 3rd scoring options are Dinwiddie and Brunson it’s going to be tough. Both are probably better options than Porzingis though who has really fizzled out.

Relative to age and the rest of roster it’s pretty amazing what Luka has done to get to this point. At some point though I think Luka needs to realize that he shouldn’t be so ball dominant. It looks a lot like we did with Roy. Him dribbling around and everyone else just standing there watching.

Luka need more help and I bet their owner would do anything compared to our owner.

I don’t know. He passes better than Roy. Luka created so many threes for his teammates last night and they didn’t knock ‘em down. Bullock couldn’t hit at all. And he’s a good shooter. And at home!
