NBA playoffs: greatest show on Earth

[OttoinGrotto]

Nobody trips all over themselves like the Raptors.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Harden’s swipe was worse than the guys insult and recording it. And the guy whining about it afterwards was far worse than Harden’s swipe.

The security team was weird.

Woj is reporting Fizdale to the Knicks.

I like Fizdale. Tough to succeed under Dolan, but I’d say he had a good of a chance as any that are out there.

A lot of media was reporting that today. I’ll be in the show me state.

 

[OrangeDW]

Never forget...

 

[OrangeDW]

Philly completely lost their composure there in terms of shot selection, transition defense, and rotations. Wow.

 

[cuseattle]

Never forget...

One day. He is quietly working on a cure for cancer.

 

[cuseattle]

Per the Cavs - they have the best player in the game. He could go anywhere and make them a contender. Fun to watch.

 

[cuseattle]

I'm starting to think Brad Stevens is pretty good as a coach.

 

[Alsacs]

It should be an automatic technical when a guy on the bench gets up and walks towards the player shooting on the court.

Such a bush league move. What a run by the Celtics to make this a game.

 

[cuseattle]

Heck of a game.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

That guard is a joke.
The kid was whiny but the rent-a-cop was wrong.
The kid did nothing wrong. He didn’t behave inappropriately. He was a douche but if I was with that kid those guards would have thrown us out.
Nothing the kid said was grounds for Harden to swipe the phone.

I don't think he was a kid. And that's sad.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

I think playing Brown is a mistake. He looked in pain after that dunk.

 

[cuseattle]

Sixers draining threeses.

 

[cuseattle]

Wow

 

[SoBeCuse]

Rozier is fantastic.

 

[Alsacs]

Tatum totally dominating Philly.
They better hope Fultz is a player as Tatum and Mitchell both have been better.
Mitchell should get ROY but Simmons is getting fit.

 

[Alsacs]

 

[SUintheVille]

Way to go Celts. Come back from being down big, then hold on in 4th quarter to put it away. They sure are a resilient and gritty bunch.

They really have some terrific young talent. Impressive. Horford still has got it in the role he is in.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Like I said, most Toronto thing ever. Hard to recover after that collapse in game 1, I don't care what anybody says. They straight up collapsed.

Not sure who I want in the Boston/Philly series. Which team has a better chance of beating Cleveland?

 

[NineOneSeven]

I'm starting to think Brad Stevens is pretty good as a coach.

Makes you realize that, quite frankly, Syracuse just ran into some truly terrible luck in the S16 in 2010.

That team had two NBA players and Stevens coaching them. They were not a fluke.

Philly has more talent but they choked like dogs last night.
Cleveland likely beats both.
If Boston has Hayward and Irving they likely give Golden State a competitive series and beat Cleveland.
If Philadelphia comes back against Boston I could see them pulling a 1986 Rockets against the Lakers and knock out LeBron.
I don’t see Boston beating Cleveland 4 times.

If Boston wins, who covers LeBron?

I'm legit concerned Jaylen Brown will eventually hurt the hammy worse and end this season for himself.

I think Philly, but then again, I'm never going to count out a Brad Stevens coached team

They would rotate Morris, Ojeleye.
Ojeleye did really well on the Greek Freak.
