i find it pretty amusing that we got dudes in here rooting for a team while being silent about how that said team is in the final after needing G7s to beat two of their opponents that were missing their second leading scorers but soon enough those same people will be crying about how top 10 of all-time $t4ph only got #4 because Ja was out

But the people need to know, how are y’all dubs in 4 before every series and then when y’all lose a game y’all are the underdogs?

Asking for a friend, well actually the whole thread

ESPN got some goofys on it. Perk just said with a straight face that Tatum may not have finals experience but last night he channeled someone that has quite a bit of experience and he can use his experience moving forward and that's the same thing.

Bruh..

Perk must think this some kind of Disney Channel movie
 
I think the Warriors should win but they haven't really looked that great this post season. They fall asleep and start playing sloppy to often. Tatum and Brown should get everything they want in this series but Boston be looking sloppy at times too.

I predicted dubs in 5 v mavs and was correct
I honestly believe the warriors faced better competition in griz and mavs
Boston is way too sloppy. Warriors defense will give them hell. Luka a better iso player than anyone on the celts. I do no thinl the jays will be efficient enough. Dubs will force the turnovers and convert them to points
 
I just think it's too much to ask to chase the Warriors around on defense then come down and get a bucket yourself.

The Celtics offense is way more linear so the inverse doesn't apply.
 
Tatum and Brown will get theirs for the most part. Both will average at least 23+ apiece for the series.

The key to beating this Celtic team 4x outta 7 is to minimize the effectiveness of Smart, Williams, and Horford by being extra physical with them. You not gonna stop Tatum and Brown but you can nullify Boston's 3 other key role players because 1) they're not threats offensively, and 2) if they can't get much on offense, they're in trouble cause the Warriors are going to force Boston to have to maintain their defensive intensity for a full 48, which is an extremely daunting task.

I do not see Boston overwhelming the Warriors in two key battles: rebounding and points in the paint.

And GSW easily has the bodies and depth to match up.

If Igoudala and Porter are healthy it will be a boost defensively for GSW cause that's two all around defenders who can play physical and make things a little bit more difficult for the C's wings and forwards.

Warriors can throw any combo of Klay, Wiggins, JTA, Iggy, and even Porter Jr all at Brown and Tatum and give them a run for their money.

Wardell, Poole, and GP are enough to give Smart and White fits and I have a huge feeling Smart will be nowhere near as effective vs GSW as he was against any of the teams he faced in the East.

That leaves Horford and the Williams boys and my money says Dray, Looney, Kuminga, Porter, and Bjelica find multiple ways to keep Boston's Bigs relatively quiet throughout the series.

Kerr will know how to scheme against Boston. I think Warriors are more versatile and can give the C's a wider variety of different looks. From a coaching standpoint, that's Gold.
