What a difference a couple weeks can make.

Turns out they actually do make players to guard those guys!

White
Holiday
Brown
Tatum
Horford
Porzingis

At least you've seen the light now though.

a "great" team getting mollywhopped by 30+ in a close out game.

Wait game 3 is a close out game? Basketball was different backt hen but I'm pretty sure it was still 7 game series.

The two greatest teams of all time - the '17 Warriors and the '96 Bulls - both got blown out in Game 4 of the Finals when they were up 3-0. In closeout games. The Bulls proceeded to lose their next closeout game after that one too. Just no killer instinct from those guys. I'm sad to report that they're no longer on the list of the all time great teams. You guys make the rules, not me.

 

[JD617]

All time great team

Maybe they'd be an all time great team if they had Kyle Kuzma instead of Jayson Tatum.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Congrats, you just made Vincent Van Goat ‘s list.

He won’t like this one bit

Nope, this one goes to N41D

Getting to the Finals without brunson is exactly what wasn’t supposed to happen according to you

Eye don’t see that as a goof however the Brunson debacle is something N41D can waste more time discussing

 

[WASHED KING]

All I know is that some needs to switch out all the warm beers in Luka's bathroom with some low calorie versions

Unserious buffoon

A Slovenian scarlet with a BBL is the only thing that can save him now

Would you go as far as say Luka is not a colleague but a colonizer?

and wore purple and gold

 

[getback]

Maybe they'd be an all time great team if they had Kyle Kuzma instead of Jayson Tatum.

or if they had slumber parties at Disney World after every game.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Maybe they'd be an all time great team if they had Kyle Kuzma instead of Jayson Tatum.

Y'all bout to pay Tatum 350 mil after he shot like **** in the finals. Celebrate now, we'll see how it ends.

Boston fans are funny
if the bucks are healthy they not coming out the east
if the knicks are healthy they not coming out the east

 

[dman14]

Cannot wait for the Amazon Prime miniseries about this Celtics squad.
lots of juicy storylines
from Ime's firing
Mazzula taking over
Tatum and Brown power struggle

All I hear is woulda coulda shoulda

Also KP was only healthy for one series. There goes that theory.

Don't spoil today for me ************

Id rather FX do it so I can get some funny casting.

Most of the thread beefs in here are kind of weird - and I say that as someone who’s been involved in a few; but the one that’s developed in here these playoffs between HIM and Vincent Van Goat seems particularly random and out-of-nowhere to me for some reason.

 

[dacomeup]

I can’t believe the players gave the owners the aprons . And I can’t believe the owners were willing to give up getting a check from the high spending owners. All around a bizarre move that will significant impact legacies over the next decade, and even more importantly how much guys get paid.

Feels good to be on the outside looking in for once. I can just watch for entertainment

In past years I would think the demand of their being tax aprons would be something that might risk a lockout

Instead the players just handed it over without a equivalent major concession coming their way.

So strange

Starting to think Silver offered to pay for Grant Williams' dating coach, so Williams turned double agent and sold the players out.

More modelos for me

Was sippin on Tequila, Macallan and Hennessy for my birthday last week.

The Bucks had problems all season on and off the court.

Respect to the Knicks. They had a really fun and exciting season, especially Brunson. The Celtics beat them 4 out of 5 times, 3 of those wins by double digits, and the one they lost was at the end of the season when they had nothing to play for.

 

[akajae]

6 Conference Finals, 2 Finals, and a championship in the past 8 years. Nicest "projects" I've ever seen.

Not a beef at all. He was tagging me every day, so I’m returning the favor. I doubt he’s taking it to heart
