BlueRayDick:They will chop minimum of manslaughter which is like 6 years. Thinking they can reply slap with gun and not go to jail is naive. I hope this is not how they view these things in real life sha. |
benji93:They have turned generational talent to one abstract thing as if we don't have eyes Imagine using what you were projected to be in your youth as a gauge for generational talent. That means Freddy Adu and Stanley Okoro suppose be generational talent Even players that turn out busts we can also judge them as generational talent |
Lol you people are over analyzing and over thinking this very simple thing. Celtics took 42 3s and made 16 Mavericks took 27 3s and only made 7. Even if you put Lebron and Michael Jordan for the team if you play 100 times you will lose 98. All of Celtics defensive strategy is working cos the Mavericks are shooting poorly. Let them start shooting well and see if Celtics so called defensive strategy works. It's unfortunate that the Mavs did not come close enough to test the Celtics mettle. They only came as close as 8 Kyrie shot 6/19 made 0 3s. I'm fairly certain he's capable of better regardless of who's guarding him If you're the Mavs you have to see quickly if Kleber cannot knock down shots go small ball on them cos he's minus 1 out there on the court. |
raumdeuter:If not that most men are now cowards these days why is your response to an unarmed man a loaded weapon. I'd understand if he was getting jumped. That was not the case You saw how many times he gunned the man down. Self defense argument has flown out the window long time ago unless you can prove the puncher was also armed. If I were judge na for jail that man go quench As for that video. Fighting an armed security operative you're basically begging for death. Anything you see you take it like that |
benji93:That's another underrated worry. Kyrie's floor is very poor. In a series where the opponent has the slight edge you have to go Super saiyan as that will unlock even the role players A bad game for you in this series cannot be 13pts and 1 assist A bad game should be 18pts and minimum 4 asts Luka even in a bad game will still give you 20. Kyrie has to also be at that minimum |
Celtics took 15 more 3s and made 9 more. You don't need rocket science or Laplace transform to know the outcome We saw the Heat, Cavs get hot in Game 2. Hopefully Mavs can replicate, perhaps they might have to bring THJ from out of the doghouse. And see what he has. Different series requires different things. It's abundantly clear that the Celtics are going to spam 40 a night. If they're making it at 38% and you're taking much fewer and only making 25% you really don't have a shot |
raumdeuter:Only a terrible lawyer will lose this kin case. I can clearly see him loading up his gun right before the argument started right beside the truck. Then when you consider how many times he shot. Only a police officer can get away with that kin murder. Put me there I can prove the murder is premeditated sef |
Roland17:Lol. Relax bros. You're supposed to win this game in your building. Panic can start if the Mavs lose game 2 as well This one wey you dey vibrate so. The job is only 25% done |
Mavs have 5 assists. Lol. This definitely an outlier game |
Roland17:I agree they have the advantage in certain areas but let that 3ball start falling or stop falling in your end and you will see that the advantage is not as wide as you think. I still believe you're overreacting off of one game but we shall see sha. Lively and Kyrie have been non factors on this game. The Mavericks will have to find a way to incorporate them into the offense cos Luka cannot do it all by himself |
Chai. That darn 3pter again. Like I said that's their real edge |
Uhh ohh. Mavericks are coming |
Ok Mavericks are you cooking something here? Can you cut it to 8 or 10 by the end of the 3rd? |
Roland17:PJ from the corner 3 can get hot. Luka can get hot, Kyrie can get hot If the Mavs shot the 3 at even remedial level it would be a much closer game. I really think you're getting carried away. A +21 advantage from 3 in a half is huge and few teams would survive it |
birdman:Without AD as your defensive anchor you will be at G-League level on the defensive side On offense he is still your most reliable Quarter 1-3 option. We saw how he absolutely cooked the Nuggets the first 3 quarters of each game. Reaves, Russell, Hachimura are good players but ultimately useless without All NBA tier level talent leading them. Trust me I would want nothing more than LeNomad twilight seasons to end in Huge embarrassing failure but I at least want him to have a puncher's chance so Bronsexuals will have no excuses |
Roland17:They're not even scheming their way to get them. Halibooty and the Pacers were making better quality shots than this. Scoring more in the paint than this. Me I will not overreact to this game. You're doing what you're supposed to do in Game 1 and if I'm the Mavs I will take some notes of what I did wrong and fix it The wild card like I said remains the 3ball. If the Mavericks will only make 2 3pters in a half the rest of the series then I surrender already However I don't expect they shoot that poorly in Game 2 |
Nothing you can do if you're the Mavs but take your medicine. You now know what you're up against. Whether you lose by 1 or 50 it's just one loss. Play tighter, sharper and more desperate in game 2 And you gotta have some pushback on Porzingis. Quit putting Luka or some smaller dude on him. It's barbecue chicken |
Roland17:That's what blew the game open and threw the Mavs off their game. I can count a 7-0 and 8-0 run inside 1 minute respectively midway through the 1st quarter that has the Mavs scampering and scrambling with no real identity. Credit to the interior defense too but without the glut of 3s it's still a close game. |
7 3s in a quarter. Not much you can do about that. Mavs should just try and cut it to like 10 and see what they can cook in the second half |
Porzingis is cooking these guys. My goodness |
Kilishihunter:Celtics bench is a bit weak IMO. I told you the Pacers are fugazi The Celtics are better but the gulf isn't insurmountable if you ask me Their real edge for me is still in the shooting if they shoot well from 3 I don't think the Mavericks can cope |
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/c-j-stroud-rips-aaron-rodgers-with-these-three-hot-takes-texans-qb-clearly-not-impressed-by-four-time-mvp/ CJ Stroud cooking Aaron Fraudgers. I love to see it ![]() |
birdman:Shipping out AD means the Lakers have slam the door shut on any type of contention. You will never be able to cobble up anything in a trade to get AD short of Luka, Jokic and Giannis to a lesser extent Hurley is definitely a much better option and ruins things for us that were hoping to see a circus show next season ![]() We wanted to see some shits and giggles but apparently the Lakers might be a serious team next season. Still think the age factor of Lebron and the fact that they might not be as lucky with injuries this season as they were last season means they ultimately fail |
Finally the moment has arrived. Okay here's the parole. I've been very unimpressed with the Celtics. I really have. Looking at the Pacers series. If the Pacers were not a fugazi team themselves no way that series doesn't get to 6 maybe 7 games On the flipside I wonder have the Mavs been worn down by facing tougher competition. That one week rest definitely will help In the end I think it will boil down to the 3pt spamming ability of the Celtics. If the Celtics spam the 3pter like they did in the regular season then there's not much you can really do. That's the one area I really think they have the Mavs beat Overall just based on the levels I've seen the Mavericks play though I just think they have too much for the Celts. Mavs in 6 |
Kilishihunter:Is that the notorious apari? What is he doing there ![]() |
liveLongNprospa:What's he even giving them to defend? Buhari said Nigerians will miss him and everyone was laughing thinking it was jokes. I knew he would be a huge embarrassing failure as President but even I didn't think he would be this clueless honestly |
liveLongNprospa:We told everyone that cared to listen that nothing dey the man brain. Presidency was just a bucket list to tick All man eye don dey open small small |
benji93:Ohh not just that, you see this predictions and betting or underdog bants na very useful propaganda tool depending on who wan use am. That's how someone will tell you a team with players in their prime playing their 3rd NBA Finals is the underdog vs a team debuting with 2 23 year olds. They don't realize gambling houses are either following the money or trying to trick you on where to put it |
Katcall:You're on point. I owe you two bottles of Heineken and fish Peppersoup ![]() Some of us saw the vision and now we've been vindicated sweetly |
Roland17:It just seems to me that the Oilers and McDavid might be a team of destiny. When you talk of a team that started from the bottom. They started from the bottom They lost to the last 2 cup winners in the playoffs. Back to back seasons They've peaked at the right time and have the two best players in the series. If they don't seize the moment that's on them because it will only get harder from here |
airmark:That one consign you. I have no real beef with point and kill defender. Where's Manolas ![]() |
timbros:Pity him. He's suffering CTE from getting battered from all sides ![]() After all the Manolas fooling anyone with shame would have left the forum by now |
