They played C+ games or worse twice and had real shots to win both games. Lebron and AD looked gassed but so did the Nuggets. To me this feels pretty even and I bet it's gonna be 2-2 heading back to Denver. AD scored forty plus points in game one and LeBron was solid and they lost. I think the Nuggets split in L.A.. Games every two days will affect the Lakers more so then Denver. Joker is the best player in this series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelawlorfaithful Posted May 20, 2023 Author Share Posted May 20, 2023 Caleb Martin going off. 25 points so far. We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lester_in_reno Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 These Celtics are awful in crunch time situations. Its amazing how they manage to fark up leads in the 4th. Dumb shots, turnovers.... stand around defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AztecSU Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I didn’t see any heat games during the regular season. What’s the story? Did they make any significant roster moves during the season or did they start playing their best once the playoffs started? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a knack for hanging in games and pulling out late wins but weren’t anybody’s idea of an NBA finals team. They even lost their 3rd best player Tyler Hero as well as Victor Oladipo and kept on going. Definitely playing their best as the playoffs progress. We’re all sitting in the dugout.

Herro and Oladipo both got injured 1st round vs Milwaukee and were done for the season. Only move I think they made was trading for Cody Zeller to have some semblance of size behind Bam. Edit: they also traded for Kevin Love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BacksThePack Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Heat vs Nuggets is probably the last possible match up of these 4 teams the NBA could want. But that's basketball for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester_in_reno Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Jayson Tatum of the celtics.... has said this many times "Kobe was my hero as a kid". but in fact Tatum would be eaten for lunch 1 on 1 by Kobe in his prime. KOBE was relentless in big games! Tatum is part of the "New NBA'. Money and All star games. He doesn't really care about doing the extra and winning a RING. Maybe someday. Same with Jaylen Brown (who went to Cal) , on the Celtics. Loses in playoffs. then says later "oh they wanted it more"! Easier to apologize then play tough hoops. What a joke!
