These are hoth fun teama to watch. Denver and Jokic just didn't move the needle for me for whatever reason. OKC..ehhh.

At least there is only gonna be 2 games left in this awful series after this one.

There’s actually an argument the Pacers are the worst team ever to make a conference finals

Watching the Pacers play defence is a disgusting experience

If Halliburton is out the series got a lot tougher for the Pacers

Yeah, they might lose the rest of these games by 30 instead of 20.

Boston is going to win it all, aren’t they?

First time watching a NBA game on ESPN app year and wow that's the worst broadcast crew in all of sports. That's saying something because Breen is a legend but Beth Mowins holy shit and the other clueless dipshit are just awful

Because it is really that hard to avoid getting fined for $100K by the NBA. LMAO

How do the other players avoid fines?

TWolves back on track in this one and playing their game, still think they’ll pull this series out

Uh oh, Kyrie is awake

KAT is missing wide open looks. This guy is so unreliable as a #2 guy

Functional Kyrie with Luca is damn impressive

Kyrie wearing moccasins?

Naz Reid taking over, just like we all expected

Holy shit. What a catch and finish.

This game rules

Kyrie chokes the FTs, unexpected

Need to get Edwards a shot here

Fix your shit, NBA

****ing awful rule

Ant ****ed up that possession. Could be the game loser

Luka or Kyrie is gonna take a 3 to try to walk this off

As soon as Luke shot that 3 I knew it was going in.

What an alpha.

Yep Luka time

But still time left

Basketball sucks and is stupid

Oof how you gonna contest Luka with gobert?

Man that was pretty.

Edwards throwing that ball away was bad.

Unless…

Man that was so close.

Great play there, Naz just couldn’t knock it down

What a game

Time to pump the brakes on ANT

Luka is so ****ing nasty man

I’m shocked KCC hasn’t said it yet. I’m waiting.

Just ****ing ass rape. I never took this Dallas matchup lightly the way some Wolves fans did, but holy shit. We can't get one ****ing win at home?

Wolves have been impressive and I've had a really fun year, but we're just a dumber team than Dallas. Kidd is an incredible coach, and Kyrie is doing exactly what he did last series, where he's biding his time and letting his teammates go to work and nailing lasers if/when he needs to.

He’s a very good player (though not on SGA or Luka level yet) but the MJ comparisons were ridiculous and really unfair to him. I still like what I see overall.

Gobert needed to cheat there. Luca was never going to attempt a two pointer.

?

He did his best but they shouldn’t be switching Rudy onto Luka in that spot anyway

I mean throwing it out of bounds with the game on the line is terrible

There’s been alphas on the court these two games and he’s not one of them

Back in the mid 2000’s, every debate show on ESPN would’ve had 20 minutes dedicated to whether or not LeBron should’ve taken the shot or passed at the end there.

Even though it was 100% the correct play, he would’ve been destroyed for that one.

I can do without Draymond on this show but Adam Silver ending Inside is the worst thing he’s done yet as commissioner.

ESPN and the sports talking heads are desperate to make ANT the face of the league. So far he is having a terrible series.

Dallas/Boston Boston Wins. Yawn.

He can play Lamar to Lucas’ Mahomes

Still an amazing character arc

Seems a bit harsh considering he’s just a 4th year player and never played in games at this level/time of the year before.

Luka also might go down as one of the all-time greats when everything is said and done too. Hard to match that level.

True enough. Of course LeBron was always destroyed for just about anything he did on court because he had to chase a myth his entire career.

Don’t watch the talking heads other than Wright occasionally but he’s solidly a top 10 player in the league after this playoff run. At his age, that’s a great trajectory to be on.

Hype was getting a bit much though if people were thinking he’s on guys like Luka or SGA’s level though. They have a lot more to their games offensively.

Celts - 49ers
Mavs - Chiefs
Wolves - Ravens

I think we have a chance for this to play out how nature intended

I can hear a younger Skip Bayless in my head:

“MJ would’ve taken the shot and made it. Prince James, once again, came up small in a big moment.”

LMAO

Any outcome that results in Boston losing is always the way nature intended.

I like his upside but just facts assessing the first 2 games of this series

Coaching hasn’t helped so he’s not alone in falling short

Imagine being BWillie and not enjoying Luka and Jokic LMAO

Nah you were speaking ill on the man not too long ago. Don't switch it up now!

I assume the current version is currently trashing Edwards too.

Still haven’t figured that one out. They are two of the best passers, big shot makers and best BBIQs in the league.

Someone embed please but lol^^

I hadn’t watched much of the Mavs this year, but Lively sure looks like he belongs.

He’s gonna be a really solid starter for them before long.

Yup

Anything to keep another ring out of Mordor

It’s impressive how smart he is on court for a rookie.

I am at least confident Minnesota won’t go down easy. Pacers are just being toyed with so we’ll get one real series. I’d love to see Ant put on his cape in Dallas, but that’s quite the expectation

The USA needs to take notes instead of worrying about high light dunks at the youth levels

Jesus Christ this guy is a dumb****. Get a financial manager. Do nothing with 255M lifetime earnings. Its not ****in hard. If you cant get richer off of 250M you may believe the Earth is flat.

At least he doesn't believe black people are Jews

Tried to tell you all

He's such a shithead. Beautiful 11 headfake travel to win the game.

Guy should be valet parking cars for a living

He's going to lose to Boston so you will be happy.

Awe still mad cause Luka knocked out SGA and your little bitch thunder.

Ive never liked Luka. I have years of posts about how much I hate him.

Yeah but that’s pathetic to call out Kyrie and then after getting schooled admit to being winded. On top of that he was playing scared down the stretch.

His shit talking leaves him open to criticism, there’s no doubt. I prefer confidence/arrogance about his abilities to the alternative though.

Do you guys remember Troy Hudson?

Whatever happejed to that guy
