He’s gonna keep getting away with this

 

[allergic2broke]

2 down, 2 to go for the UNDERDAWGS

Dude must be delirious


Tatum needs to leave Boston, so he can really shine.

 

[RustyShackleford]

B Sox back at it....

 

[TimelessClassic]

ESPN basketball coverage is at an all-time low. DB and Redick ain't it...especially paired together with Breen. Doc wasn't the answer either before he took the Bucks job

 

[osh kosh bosh]

it turns out i don't want esoteric terminology during NBA broadcast.

give me Mark Jackson catch phrases and JVG complaining about the refs over Doris and JJ any day.

[Vincent Van Goat]

Worst finals ever

The play by play is awful to listen to

The post game is awful to listen to

Awful just awful

Tbh haven’t been a great finals since the Lebron over warriors one

 

[elpablo21]

I missed essentially most of the game

Can I get a honest assessment of Tatum's playmaking? Saw the 12 dimes from him

 

[B Sox]

The copium from the media who basically all picked Dallas has been hilarious and will be even more funny after this game

 

[ALNotSure]

He shot 6-22 and 1-7 from three against a weak Dallas team.

Wild take

 

[osh kosh bosh]

it turns out.
"Mamma their goes that man" > JJ reddick saying "floppy action" or "deceleration" for the 500th time.

i thought i wanted it but I was wrong, we have to go back.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

D White is an all time great role player

Where would you rank him on the all time list?

 

[cool...but rude]

Maybe Kyrie will help out at home

Tatum wasn't needed this evening. We don't rely on just 1 player.

 

[DadNboujee]

Luka ain’t him. Trash A..

I'm kinda shocked how many favored the Mavs. At least I have a reason to be bias.

I’m probably not what you’re looking for, but….

He got into the paint at will and defense collapsed. He couldn’t make **** both inside and out, but he was finding wide open cutters or shooters. If the team wasn’t ice cold shooting all night it could’ve been another 20pt game with the looks being generated, whether it was directly from his pass or the hockey assist.

Made great plays in almost every way besides plays that involved him shooting the ball.

Got to the cup w/ ease and made the right kick out passes most the time.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Celtics attack Luka on defense making him gassed on offense. He seemingly could’ve done more in the 4th

this was my worry in my pre series analysis.

this finals feels like the Mavs vs Warriors series in 2021.
The defense shut down their pet actions, and luka has to carry the offense.

they attack Luka on defense untill he's gassed out.

looks like a replay of that series.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Not breaking 100 in the first two games Celtics got the best parts of OKC's and Minnesota's defenses

Porzingis hopefully good to go

Kyrie has been lacklustre through the first 2 games.

Vincent Van Goat

Luka needs more help

they have tons and tons of spacing, the reads are easy, he's a solid passer.

give him credit for making the right play but it's like he was throwing incredible dimes. guys are wide open.

He was 6 assists away from having a great game like Tatum

Wide open . He’s blowing pass a mismatch on the perimeter and kicking it to a wide open guy.
