Nice game by SGA. Took just 1 3.

He bringing the mid range back and wasn't a free throw merchant today. Had to work for his buckets as a star player should, I can respect that
Lol. Making your Free throws are very important.
The Mavs lost just because they made only 50% of their FTs.

Shai showed why he's an MVP player in this league

Luka needs to lose some weight.
He looks so heavy out there. A professional athlete shouldn't be looking that way

Kenny, SGA isn’t just the best closer in this series, he has been the best player in this series.

Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 5:38am On May 14
As a coach, when you have to call timeouts, so you can remove Kyrie/ Doncic during the final minutes of the game, then you know your wahala don double.

If you win the defensive possession, you have to call another timeout to get both back into the game…

Talk about defensive liabilities..

I judge players not by their ability to score free throws but how many buckets can you get on nights you don't get them calls.

That's what separates Jordan, Kobe, Bron from a James Harden or Embiid

SGA showed me something. Like I always say not spamming 3pts get you a lot of credit with me

Double wahala

Imagine burning 2 important timeouts in the final minutes of a tough close game to remove your starting guards (Doncic/ Kyrie) because they are defensive liabilities and if you win the possession, you burn another timeout to get both players back in.

I had even forgotten about JVG sef. Birds of the same feather. I don't know what they aim to achieve going that route. As a wise man once said insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting a different result.

Because thats how they got where they are. They were never skilled enough to play high level basketball. And they arent the most brilliant basketball minds. Their road to success was outworking the more talented. Unfortunately they over apply this life philosophy to basketball. For example I cannot explain how much man love JVG had for Chuck Hayes, on the strength of the guys hustle, with 0 talent grin It does work, until you meet a talented and motivated team.


Lets see if Tibs can adjust, because in the past, neither of them have been able to change game plans. Once the opposing coach figures them out, series is over! Their only adjustment is to hustle harder embarassed

He showed you something cause you haven't been watching but following narratives.
SGA has been doing this all season, last night was no different.

Reducing him to just a FT merchant is lazy.

There's a reason this guy would be making his second consecutive All NBA first team and was voted 2nd in MVP voting.

You Bebeto niggas are always so funny.

Someone averaging over 10 FTs per game is not a FT merchant?

Nothing consign me with all this All NBA, MVP nonsense. Harden has done more than this in the regular season only to go ghost in the playoffs.

SGA till this season was an unproven playoff performer. So my sentiment is 100% justified. At the moment his playoff resume is too thin for all this noise you're making if we're gonna keep it a buck.

This is the most excitement I think I have seen for NBA playoffs in a while. There are like 4 teams that could win this ring this year, and best of all, none of the usual superstars!
