Listening to ringer podcast, I think people are loosing their mind on how Warriors have no chance. An example:

"Mavs are better because they won RS 3-1. Couple of sentences later, Suns are definitely better than Warriors. So Mavs definitely better than Warriors"

What? Completely forgets that Warriors beat Suns 3-1 in RS.

I am not saying that we handily beat them or even that we will necessarily beat Mavs in series. But people have Luca just crushing Warriors by himself - an unstoppable force, Warriors have nothing to stop him.

Let's prove them wrong, Dubs.

Wow, the game was a free throw fest: 32 & 34 FTAs for Boston and Miami, respectively.

I didn't watch the second half of the game, but I'm wondering if Miami can win this series if they make Brown beat them rather than Tatum

Random observation from watching the heat celts game: mavs/dubs shoot a lot of 3s and have a more "finesse" game compared to celts/heat who are both very physical hard-nosed teams. On the one hand, that could mean the winner in the east comes out more beat up, on the other hand could mean the winner of the west won't be prepared for that (although I have to think we would be from memphis). Will be curious to see if that continues as these series play out!

Sheesh, Memphis's defense gave us trouble but these two teams looks like a notch above that

A likely flagrant 1 coming up here for Bam. Probably looks worse than it actually was. Takes his eyes off Rob Will, the RW jumps

First time in three years that I didn’t care about the NBA lottery… so much that I completely forgot it happened today
