I've watched every single play off game this year so far - what a ride. Bummed about Boston (and Tatum of course) but gotta hand it to the Knicks - outplayed and out coached us.
Was rooting for Denver over OKC too, but they looked tired AF today. OKC play a fun brand of hoops. Still gonna be rooting for Minnesota though.
Indiana have gone off this playoffs and are my pick for champs. They are well rounded and play great all round hoops. If Halliburton continues his heroics anything's possible.
Binged that whole Celtics City show, really good stuff. Loved the interviews they had specially for it. I think I would have loved watching Dave Cowens play. And I've gone and ordered all the 2008 play off games the C's were in as I missed watching that run completely.
So sorry about your Dad 4/5. Hope you guys are doing as well as you can be. 2025's been a rough one so far for me personally too, here's to some positives going forward.

Thanks, Higgs. Echoing M_D's sentiments, hope things get better.

These are the best conference finals in a while. I'd love to see any one of these four teams win the title. But Go Knicks

It certainly feels like the league is in the midst of a generation transition. I'm here for it.

I watched tonight because it’s my state (MN) and I’d like to see a championship. I don’t actually like basketball. I watched a ton of it in the 90s when I was in middle school and high school. Ultimately, I’m not invested at all so there is no bias when I say
SGA’s “game” is disgraceful. He’s like fucking Neymar on the pitch. All he does is throw his body into defenders and draw bullshit fouls and shoot free-throws. That’s the league mvp? Cool product. I thought skill in basketball was getting around defense or making contested shots, not hanging two fouls in the first two minutes on Rudy, who didn’t foul either time. I don’t even think the refs are on the take like back in the day when they helped the Lakers past the Kings. I think it’s just a horribly flawed game now.
