I think I'm late to the party here, but I'm camp #JONES. Feels like he has some promising attributes and the idea of him soaking up knowledge from Draymond sounds great.
Can the Warriors go NFL style and invite all the guys that go undrafted from this group in as UFAs and then have them compete for a roster spot and any that don’t get the spot but impress can be the Sea Dubs roster?
I sorta wish we had traded for Jrue last summer (though the price was admittedly steep). Just feels like he might have solved some big problems for us. POA defense, secondary ball handling, general maturity...
TAYTUM and BROWN alternating at scoring 40 a game. If it isn't one, it is the other. Now, where have I SEEN THAT BEFORE...lol...and, HORFORD making sure no one misses PORZINGIS...lol....As the man said...a cakewalk for BOSTON.....BORING, I say...
Pacer fans must be on the verge of self-immolation. Blowing another lead and collapsing in the final moments. Brutal. Still, getting to the ECF at all is an accomplishment. Beating a broken Knick’s team still counts.
Teams start playing the clock way too early, I think. That possession right around the two-minute mark in the 4th, where the Pacers were up six and burned the whole shot clock just to end up with a contested jumper… I mean, it was good defense, obviously, but Indiana’s approach just reminded me of too many W’s games from this season. Low key I knew they were losing at that point.

Don't know any of these players... skimmed through the descriptions and videos. I think I go with Dillon Jones. He kinda gives me Ron Artest vibes.

Celtics outscored the Pacers 31-21 in the 4th Q. It felt like the Celtics had an answer everything time the Pacers scored.
Outscored Indy by 33 from 3. Tough to overcome that.
Also tough to overcome an opponent scoring on 7 straight possessions in crunch time...
Welp, at least they made a game of it.
Still anybody’s game. But why is every team I root for cursed this playoffs?
Root for the Celtics then?
I feel you
Pacers haven't made a single three in the 2nd half
Finally!
nembhard with 4 of their 5 out of 21.
I got Mavs beating Boston in the finals in 7. It'll be a back and forth series with the winner of a crucial game 5 ultimately winning it all
I'll take the winner of a crucial game 7
I got Minny winning in Dallas tomorrow and making everybody reconsider booking the Mavs' ticket to the Finals (at least for one day).
I had Mavs picked over Minny anyway but would never guess they'd be up 2-0 going back home
WNBA: Um Becky Hammond called for a review on her already reviewed call. Wow. Clear path against the Aces stands. Twice. 😅
Bizarre
Celtics have turned up their defense.
What if I told you…
Pacers without their best player.
Celtics +27 from 3
Celtics 17 blocks+steals, Pacers 3
Celtics by 30+, right?
NBA playoffs is a snooze fest 😴
Am I the only one watching Boston struggle? it is fun. Might not last, enjoy it while you can.
