NBA Thread 2021-22 Season

[OttoinGrotto]

In my perfect world, it would just be alternating days between Stanley Cup Finals and NBA Finals.

Yessir.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Gave a like, but I actually think the Dubs close it out.

Tatum and Jaylen have been too inconsistent to cover the issues with their bench.

And I don't think Steph has two bad games in a row.

With that said, I wouldn't bet money on it. Boston is a very good team. I actually think these teams are pretty evenly matched. I like them both, but just think Dubs get it tonight.

It’s possible, but Boston has already won two series with some pretty clear adversity.

 

[Melancer46]

I’ll be surprised if this doesn’t go 7

 

[djcon57]

I got Celts tonight with Smart 20+. Lots o FTs for him

 

[MikeSU02]

Steph has to be smarter with the ball.

Good start for the Cs.

Liked they started with Horford on that called play.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Good start for Boston.

Yes, I am Captain Obvious.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Pretty much a given the game would start this way.

 

[cuseattle]

Boston plays some pretty basketball if they're not making turnovers. I need a game 7!!!

Someone explain to me why Tatum grabbing Currys wrist 60 feet from the basket to prevent a fast break isn’t an intentional foul? How is that good for the game?

I believe that will treat it that way next year, because you’re right.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Pritchard gives us nothing.

 

[MikeSU02]

This is what I was worried about for the Cs.

How they are down after that quarter is crazy.

Tatum is still settling for jump shots (and hitting them), but he has to attack attack attack.

And get the ball to Brown much more

 

[goofnoff]

Curry just made a ridiculous 3. I thought there's no way he's taking that shot and then nothing but net.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Payton and Poole are dominating White and Pritchard in the bench rotation minutes the past few games.

 

[MikeSU02]

Unless Kerr changes his usual, Curry's longest bench time is coming up. Cs have to win this stretch handily.

 

[MikeSU02]

Cs cannot lose this stretch with Curry on the bench. This is an awful way to start the 2Q.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Golden State looks like the more desperate team.

It’s fortunately gone next year, but yeah, it’s awful. Next up is addressing the flopping in a serious way.

 

[Melancer46]

Feels like another game where GS is surviving on mostly terrible offense and Boston will be fine if they can just settle in here.

Golden State is getting every loose ball.

 

[goofnoff]

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

WIGGINS

 

[UpstateSM]

This past week of games has been an infuriating way to see my handful of Celtics 40-1 tickets get put through the shredder

 

[goofnoff]

Golden State is getting every loose ball.

Golden State is really disrupting the rebounding. That was true in the last game, too.

 

[NineOneSeven]

GS bench winning handily.
