Ah well, it's good for the series.

Celtics are in trouble now. Tatum will choke in a game 7. Watching Kobe YouTube videos doesn't make you clutch.

Didn't she fuck around on dell with some buzz light-year looking guy? Seems like they just don't want that slut around anymore.

I can't say I've followed that story at all.

Some fan you are

Fishing for fouls in the final stretch is such a bad strategy and such boring basketball

Yep. That was shitful. Celtics offense was average all night, and goddam awful in Q4.

Tatum continues to make a mockery of all NBA selection. And Curry is like nothing I've ever seen before.

I still believe. But gotta be better than that though.

Wait, trag watches basketball now?

Former/lapsed hardcore Celtics fan who’s made a fair-weather return once they made the playoffs. Trying to get caught up on rosters. Hopefully this will continue through next season.

Oh jeebus. Celtics fans, are you ok with this?

[Monkey_Driven]

No team had more than a seven point lead until the final minute. I'm not sure how either fanbase can say that one team played "terrible" unless both teams were terrible.

This is a very evenly matched series.

I don’t think Boston played terrible at all. I just think they got some bad coaching in the final stretch.

They've been inconsistent in 4th quarters all season. Combination of coaching, bad basketball IQ, and youth.

Warriors are about as experienced as a team can be in that sort of spot.

Thanks for this insight, MD. Didn't keep up at all until playoffs. What's the general consensus on Udoka? I've been enjoying most of what I've seen, but these 4th Q meltdowns are pissing me off.

Trag can’t be bothered to watch game 1

“Can’t be bothered” and “EST tipoffs conflict with my kids bedtime” aren’t really the same thing

I've had to shift my sports watching habits since having kids. I record games and then watch them after they're in bed. Can fast forward through commercials and reviews.
