Yep..
Then get mad when you say shut up and dribble.
Indeed. It’s like “tolerance for free speech”. Too many people only have the ability to tolerate what they fully agree with. Disagreement is whatever the hell the needed “-ist” is so they can avoid having to debate.

There are several on here that go back and forth, I do it yet as long as the back and forth is somewhat civil and information is, keep it going. It’s the personal attacks and the like that show the argument is lost.

I am a long time Husker fan but growing up in Massachusetts I am a huge Celtics fan. I don't like Lebron but he is a freak athlete at 38. Look at Embid - great but could not make it through the season physically. Lebron has played 20 seasons deep into the playoffs and still functions at an elite level. He may be one of the greatest athletes ever...unless he is taking the roids or GH which may be the case.

Celts tonight - gut check....
Let’s go C’S!!! Also have MA roots. I like their chances… coin-flip at worst at this point

Crazy game. I think Butler got fouled at 2.5 seconds but they reset it to 3.0 which was just enough time for the put back.

So the Nuggets are going to sweep either of these teams? They have been sitting there for what feels like weeks.

I don’t think having this much time off will be good for the Nuggets. Nice to have a couple days of rest between series, but nearly 2 weeks? Too long of a layoff.

Right now I’m leaning Celtics to win it all. All money was on the Heat last night as Vegas dangled a +2.5 carrot in everyone’s face in Miami... Celtics beat the Lakers on the “Memorial Day massacre” in 1985 I believe. Here they are again in game 7 on Memorial Day. All money should be on Denver against either of these other two teams.

I bet Boston to win the series when they went down 0-3. Got them @ +754 to win the series. Likely hedge some of that with Heat +10 in game 7. At least that hedge could pay both

I am sure he does it all time in the same situation. And they win the game 99/100 times in that situation with a missed shot. Sometimes **** happens.
Basketball 101 is the inbounds man is the most dangerous person in thst situstion and you dont give up clean direct pass with no pressure. Its was a terrible decision.

Hiow many of those times were in elimination games while playing against good teams

Derek White had 2 opportunities to win that game for them if they chose too. because of it.

Seen more losses than victories doing that stupid sht in the NBA playoffs.

Popovich did the same stupid thing in 2004.

Boston deserves to lose it they continue to shoot the garbage 3 point shot even though they can't make any.

White got them back in the game going to the hoop. Boston and most other teams shoot well over 50% from the two but instead live and die by the 3. Boston (as i type this) has gone 16 for 87 in the last 2 games. Garbage ball.

Well Miami won and I doubt if Eric or pop at San Antonio really cares that some random fan who thinks they know more than HAll of fame coaches do on what they should do in a NBA game situation.

Yes cause the last games decisions was relevant to this game.

So dont ever say a word again about another sport, coach or player cause they dont care to hear from some Ahole like you on a message board.

Great post man. Keep it up.

What a series. Martin was absolutely unconscious tonight. Glad to see Jimmy Buckets in the ship.

I know the NBA gets a lot of hate on this board but these playoffs have been the most entertaining in awhile.

You have the older legends still near the top of their game: LeBron, Steph, KD, Kawhi, Jimmy

The stars who have arrived and are trying to take over the league: Jokic, Giannis, Embiid, Tatum

And the “rookie” NBA stars - Ja Morant (minus the guns), Zion, Anthony Edwards.

Luka was really the big one missing from these playoffs. So much talent in the league right now.

Turning out to be sucker bet 101!
Squares gonna square

It’s pride month, too. Rainbows are everywhere. Leprechauns keep their gold at the end of rainbows. A leprechaun is the celts logo.

Rainbows -> leprechauns (celts) -> gold (nuggets) -> celtics control the gold -> celts to win it all

Was right there! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Did I expect you to clown my pick while not making a single one of your own in a thread you started, like these other run-of-the-mill useless critics? Honestly, no. I’ll have a bet posted before this series starts. Do better

I'll say Nuggets in six, but I think they will be rusty after the long layoff and I look for the Heat to take one of the first two games. Denver should definitely win, but I don't think it will be as lopsided as many of the pundits are projecting.

Are there any cross-sport, calendar, mascot, legal, historical or geographical coincidences that may point to an outcome we should be aware of?

Heat does melt gold (nuggets), after all
