    This one looks like a write off. Mavs hitting shots and Warriors not.

    that is an insane number of threes, both chucked and made

    I haven't been able to see any of the games, but it looks like Luka showed up tonight, which is nice. it would be nice to take one off them at home and lose in 6, but I don't know if we can keep all of their weapons quiet in game 5.

    Bam playing pea heart Anthony Davis like “big man” basketball. Useless

    Heat left their shooting and effort in the locker room

    Warriors in 5

    The passing and shot making was top drawer. Klay moving off the ball like old Klay. Draymond and Looney both with big games. Dray was assertive offensively and Looney another dominant game on the boards.

    Mavs looked helpless defensively in that first half. Made a great run in the 3rd but then the Warriors found another gear.

    This is an intense physical one. Celts getting the rub of the green.

    Jimmy Buckets doin the business. Huge game.

    But the defensive effort to read the Celts iso and kick game.

    Tatum has been poor down the stretch.

    Hopefully the additional rest time before the finals will give Porter Jnr and GP2 time to get fit.

    Hoping the Celtics get up in Game 7. Just think a Warriors/Celts finals will be more fun.

    the Heat are living and dying by how hard Jimmy Butler carries them.

    crazy finish. Heat had an 11-0 run to get within 2, Butler with the pull up 3 to take the lead...

    and it's short. Celtics hang on

    Both teams missed some good looks in the last 2.5 minutes.

    They almost pinched it in the end! Made the astute call to let Marcus Smart shoot open 3s and he threw up brick after brick.

    But the Celtics somehow held on.

    Jimmy Butler is a big game player.

    Tatum was doing the right thing, hitting the open guy, only for a brick. Reliance on the 3 can be blessing or a curse.

    Arghhhhhh.

    I almost threw the remote at the TV when Jimmy pulled up for 3. Everyone will say the right things about that shot because Butler has carried this team big time and he is the man BUT I have a few issues with it:

    • you had played 47:40 minutes up until that point, he was running on spare and he had no legs in that shot.

    • down 2, you usually only play the 3 on the road…

    • you had their centre back peddling, that is either a 17 footer pull-up or if Horford bites, you go around

    • you were getting buckets or FTs when you went to the hole

    • there was time

    Hats off to Miami for their gritty play, particularly on the defensive end and the way they made runs to cut double digit leads. How about that Strus put back dunk and the 3 going to his right from a foot outside the line and a defender right in his grill. That was sweet.

    @ACT-Crusader Yeah I see your point.

    But... if he hits that I would put my bottom dollar on the Heat winning. So he puts it all on black and it comes up red. I don't necessarily agree with the option but I can see why he did it.

    You play the game for one uncontested shot to win the game. He'd earned the right
