The Celtics are scary good for a team with an all-star currently unable to play and 2 1st round draft picks in the upcoming draft.

That comment by the Greek Freak is quite damaging to any hope we might have. A meaningless win that probably won't change the outcome of the series but might save their franchise.

I actually hope he'll make a comeback, playing like a superman and still lose. If he is going to leave, he needs to blame his supporting cast for not doing enough and not sitting on the sideline and blaming himself.

I’m not sure Giannis trying to play on a A already-sprained ankle and re-injuring it means he now has “glass ankles”.

Boston's 27-point lead at halftime is the team's 2nd-largest halftime lead in a postseason game in the Shot Clock Era (since 1954-55). Boston led the Lakers by 30 at halftime of Game 1 of the 1985 NBA Finals and won that game 148-114.

Key stat in Lakers-Rockets game - Harden took only 12 shots from the field. Other guys, including Westbrook, need to step up when Harden gets double-teamed.
