    Congratulations to Nuggets!!
    That whole 4th quarter was horrible...
    A small blemish on an otherwise stellar series. They doubled the amount of players that have scored 50+ twice in the same playoff series. Jordan and Iverson were the only ones ever, in how many playoff series in NBA history? And these dudes each did it in the same series. Bravo. 
    Blah blah blah, I know, the sports news castors mentioned it ad nauseum...  It was impressive but neither team would be getting out of the next round.

    So, the fourth quarter.  Defense was great.  Loved that.  Both teams looked like they wanted to pass more and not take the shot.  Both teams need another piece.
    Can’t an awesome series just be an awesome series though? Plus, it’s looking like the Nuggs weren’t nearly as big of push overs as many would have thought. Don’t think they will win the series, but they only got 9 second half points from their 2 stars and they never let the Clippers get close.

    The Celtics are turning out to be a better team than I thought. That's without Gordon Haywood, they'll have another option as a go to for scoring. Also superb defense by them as well especially M. Smart. I also really like when they wear those road black jerseys.

    Tatum is no friggin joke.  Dude can ball.

    The whole Celts team is jelling.  Danny Ainge is a genius.

    So far, a year ago he could have easily blown this team with impatience. However, he held on and so far the team is playing well together through defense. That said, they haven't won squat so far to me they NEED to get to the Finals at the very least and there anything can happen. GO GREEN MACHINE GO!

    Its amazing what a difference chemistry can make, swapping Kyrie for Kemba.
    Pure hoops skills Kyrie is the better player, but fitting in with teammates, Kemba has him by a country mile.

    If he did actually leave id like to see Giannis go to Dallas or New Orleans.  Not sure who Dallas could offer in a trade but the Pelicans have almost every Lakers 1st round pick until 2026.

    He'll go to the Knicks!  Said no one ever, lol.

    Giannis needs help for sure.  Imagine him playing w Doncic?

    He won't have a choice if the Bucks trade him.

    I think Celtics have the assets to make a trade? Miami too?

    He's going to Miami as a FA after next season, they have tons of cap space, so Bucks might as well trade him

    Miami is a horrible fit.  I don't think he and Butler would play well together.  Boston would be interesting.

    Raps are in the running for him too. 

    Sloppy game at times tonight by them but strong finish gets them the W. I am getting more annoyed then I normally do at the diving and embellishments. Anyone else watch this game and think there was more than normal or is it just me?

    I don't have kids in sports so I don't know but Greenberg mentioned that his kids and their piers all do flopping now.  It has reached the middle and HS levels now.
