The Pacers should have won game 1 in Boston. Those late mistakes did them in. Boston may sweep.
Now for my T Wolves, with how they were playing they should have lost by more. The barrage of 3 pointers in the first half put them in a good spot but as soon as they couldn't hit as many they didn't have many other solutions. Dallas had a better game plan and they executed it well. Feeling good the game was that close considering Dallas was the better team. Friday night should be a fun game. Holy crap Luka is annoyingly good. He doesn't look fast.....he doesn't look like he should be that good. I don't get how he does what he does.

Really thought Minn would take their series in 6 or less. Very impressed the way they beat the Nuggets. Their vaunted defense didin't really show up in Game 1. |

Pacers blow another 4th quarter lead, played well even without their best player. Guess this series is over, Boston just too much talent. Now is gut check time for Minn. Lose 2 at home, if they lose either of the next 2 they are done as well.

I really thought Wolves would dominate inside and smother Mavs w defense. Luca is playing like superstar, he’s hard to stop. Boston has talent but there is something missing that true will to win. They have been very fortunate to play teams not at full strength. The pacers are done without Halliburton. Should be a very interesting finals. Dallas can win but if Boston stays focused and determined they will likely prevail.

So I see the self proclaimed "best shooting big man ever" shot 5-18 tonight. KAT has looked like a clown this whole series.

I personally can not stand Anthony Edwards. I understand he is young. But, man he is too cocky . Someone needed to put him in his place and I think Kyire along with Luka have done that.
I honestly thought the Wolves would take a game or two against the Mavs just because of the "twin" towers. But, KAT and Gobert have been playing like trash. I think this series is over. Mavs vs. Celtics. I got the Mavs winning the title.

Kyrie and Luka are averaging like 60 points between the two of them this series? They are unstoppable and i can see them holding that finals trophy in a couple weeks.

But as for Anthony Edwards himself, I like him both as a player and as a guy. Yes, he likes to talk trash and he's very self-confident, but he's actually never disrespectful IMHO. |

I like antman as well. The guy is just so positive and fun to watch plus he’s only 22. I can’t stand Kyrie for many reasons but he seems to have grown up and become a leader. He always seems to implode at some point but maybe he’s changed. I’m not a big Luca fan either. Until this years playoffs I’ve rarely seen a star that plays no defense and he’s a crybaby but he’s now playing defense and on the other end he’s been superb in every way. Maybe he’s growing up to as he passes a lot more these days

So here we go with the Wolves-Mavs series going back to Minneapolis. The Wolves will have to play perfectly to win 3 more in a row which I don't see happening. I think the series will end tomorrow night or on Saturday in Dallas.
And again with last night's game Kat shows up and they win. Of course he made a bunch of dumb fouls but his shooting was clutch. I still don't want him on the team but that debate is for next season. Is Luka the king of getting a defender in the air and then lunging forward into them to create contact and a foul? I absolutely hate that play in the NBA but props to him for getting defenders off balance.

I think the Wolves got lucky especially with all the foul trouble they had in the first half. I don't see them getting past game 5

My gut is telling me the wolves will take game 5 (if they stay out of foul trouble, and both ANT and KAT have a solid game) but the Mavs will take the series during game 6.

Full disclosure im a long time Knicks fan that is finally proud of my team again. I hope they make a few more good moves to get us over the top. I was watching the last dance last night and I think basketball was so much better in the 90s. Better defense no reliance on long shots and a few less teams. Watching Jordan again was something. He was brilliant on both sides of the court and his will to win was like few I’ve ever seen. He cost my Knicks a few real championship opportunities. Not enough defense these days

Welp, wolves got blown out game 5 at home court.
Mavs back to the NBA Finals. Kyrie plays against his old team. Should be a good series but I think Mavs will take the title. I can't see anyone stopping Luka or Kyrie.

Finals will be interesting.....Celtics have a ton of talent, everyone forgets that both their starting guards are All Defensive team. Just seems they have to want it. |
