A Celtic adjustment should be to attack Poole instead of Bjelica when both are on the floor. Hunting Bjelica instead made Poole more playable, honestly.
Watched the game on delay (game thread would have been so so cathartic!) But in a hotel room with others who would say "tis only a game" after I'd be barking at the C's for flopping or the refs for not calling any fouls on Curry. It's after 1am here and should be asleep as have been traveling two days straight but I had to come and read every comment with you all β€οΈ
So nice to be amongst others who get me! ππ½
I'm just astonished that the OG's are ACTUALLY back playing Finals basketball in essentially a reintegration year. I'm so so SOOOOOO damn thrilled for them.
Watching replay with sound on, and when Bjelica gets the stop on Brown and runs the fast break and Tatum fouls him on the layup attempt.
Jackson says, "Clearly off Bjelica." Goes to replay showing Tatum clear arm contact, and Jackson tries to pass it off, "There's the strip," to which JVG says "Or the foul" and Jackson just says "Yeah well, they didn't call the foul so clearly should be Celtics ball off Bjelica"
God, I really hoped the Kings would hire him just to get this joke off the TV.
Even the toughest need some love and I hope Chase showers love on Dray and wash away the crap that Boston crowd threw his way. I want standing O for Dray and crowd to celebrate every time he does something good.
We love you Dray and got your back. Welcome back home, brother.
Iβm already tired of hearing that Steph did it all himself, implying Boston had a more balanced team contribution.
Andrew and Klay combined for 35 points on 34 shots, 18 rebounds, and 3 assists. Smart and Brown combined for 39 points on 37 shots, 10 rebounds, and 7 assists. Tell me who has better support, Steph or Tatum?
Itβs arguable either way, and thatβs the point. Yes, Stephsβs star shone brightest, but he didnβt do it all himselfβ¦ and neither did Tatum.
Timberwolves fans have got to be crying themselves to sleep at night, who would have thought wiggins would have been the 2nd best player on the warriors against the best defense in the league in the finals
Just woke up Ireland time after catching the fourth quarter on the extremely sparse yet somehow thrilling ESPN game cast. You sit there for long moments with nothing happening then suddenly Kyle like Boston team turnover Stephen Curry 36 foot three point shotβ¦. And youβre trying not to shout out because other people are sleeping and the cast just sits there for a while so you check the box score againβ¦ fun time in its own tense way, but flying home tomorrow and far prefer to see this stuff live from home with actual video photography. But a request: I can read a box score I can read a write up I can watch highlights but what was the game (and the series, been traveling for all of it) really like, as only the fans here can describe? Whatβs the inside scoop? How did you feel about it?
Went for a quick listen to Loweβs podcast and itβs some guy rambling on about LeBron and how for the FIRST time in his career Steph had a game as good as LeBron, so you know itβs an ignoramus andβ¦ itβs Windhorst. Why is he polluting the Lowe Post? Go away man
I said this since the MIA series but BOS's lack of a real floor general really hurts them in crunch time. They won 2 games by pulling away from us in the 4th but when it's close in the final minutes we've seen them make very questionable decisions. Tonight was them panicking and bombing from 3 again and again until it got away from them. Unless someone like Smart hits some bullshit bankers I feel good about our chances if we find ourselves in another "random ending" game with them
Hate it
Bjelica just looks unathletic but the dude can ball on both sides. Itβs only the shifty gnomes that kill him on D.

Onto the next one...
Simple. GOAT Curry. Sweet.

I am optimistically worried about G5.

I am nowhere near sober, but I'd like to stop by and digitally yell STEPHEN CURRRYY!!
Thank you.

Wiggs career high for rebounds, comes in a finals game???
Dayum.
Iβve said it before, and Iβll say it again.
Curry.
Quote me.
