Dolfan in NYC Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 LET'S FUCKING GO. Miami and Boston is the Eastern Conference Finals. The Lakers await Denver or LA in the West. Games start Tuesday evening.
Jiji Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 I was reading that there could be a lengthy break in the eastern conference finals so they don't get too far ahead of the west. After game 3 on Saturday, they could break until Wednesday. Could be weird. 1

Rooting for Miami to take the whole damn thing regardless. 1
Brian Fowler Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 I'm not a Heat fan in anyway, but the number one lesson in basketball is fuck the Celtics. 5 2
ohtani's jacket Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 Did anyone expect a Heat/Celtics ECF? Pretty much anything could happen, especially in the bubble where home court means jack shit. I really like the Celtics' young core, but I'm kind of leaning toward the Heat. Jimmy Butler is the best player in the series, especially in those pressure cooker fourth quarter moments. I really hope the Celtics don't have Tatum handle the ball as much as he did in the Toronto series. Every time he tried to drive, it was an automatic turnover.

Lawful Metal Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 Y'know if the seeds broke different, I don't know Miami beats Toronto, and I don't think the Celtics beat the Bucks. Styles make fights. It's wild. I called Miami beating the Bucks way back when, so I'm still rooting for them. Plus, Dragic is an ex-Rocket. Always liked him. And Jimmy's from Tomball. 1

Sorry you’re not allowed to root for another team or you’re not a “real fan” of the Rockets. After all when I tried to make a bet with you involving Kawhi you accused me of not being a real Mavs fan. So why don’t you keep that in mind before shooting your mouth off about ex-Rockets, and players you all of a sudden like (Jimmy Butler). 1
Jiji Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 @Dolfan in NYChow are you holding up? This is pretty crazy. We thought it would be close. Maybe not this close especially after that sharty third quarter from Miami.

Jiji Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Yeah, Bam is next level. That was such a clean last ditch helping block. Wow.
supremebve Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 That was a great basketball game. Jason Tatum in the last three plays did everything humanly possible and still came up short on all three plays. 1
Dolfan in NYC Posted September 16, 2020 Author Posted September 16, 2020 Now there's an endorsement. 1
Jiji Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Tayshaun and LeBron had pretty good blocks too. 1 1

Niners Fan in CT Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 All I know is twice Jimmy Buckets did his thing when they needed it and the young Celtics couldn't. Great game but it's not looking good...
Jiji Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Faithless. How many times in these playoffs has a team dropped the first game only to win the series? 3?
supremebve Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Jokic plays a game that would piss me off if I had to guard him at the park. Nothing he does looks like it should work, but there's also nothing you can do to stop it. 1 1

I'm not faithless, I'm saying that Boston continues to have these issues down the stretch of close games because there's not one guy who has stepped into the role of closer like Miami has with Butler. It's shared between Kemba who has been mostly off in these playoffs and Tatum who is 22 and he's hit or miss, sometimes he reminds us that he is 22.

The passes when he somehow sees some dude cutting behind him. The rebounds he gets over people without jumping. He is a terrible defender, but if he's an entire offense by himself. 1
Jiji Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Guess we're talking about this here but man... I can't believe we may not get a Battle of LA and Denver doing a 3-1 comeback twice in a row. Un-fucking-real. I NEED BRON VS KAWHI DAMN IT!
Jiji Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 And help us all for the fucking Shannon Sharpe-level takes Lawful is going to be hitting us up with. 8 twitter posts in a row?
