The Warriors look all worn out!


The Celtics defense wears everyone down eventually. It's intense and relentless.

Game 4 in Boston is huge. If we win I think the series is ours. Can't hope to have to steal one at golden state.

It feels pretty obvious that if GSW wins the series, Curry is FMVP. If Boston does, it's Jaylen

Eh, as subpar as Tatum has scored, he's still doing a lot more playmaking than Brown. It's probably 50/50 right now. I'm not upset with either of them winning, though would prefer if Brown made his case a bit stronger and take the Finals MVP with JT getting the ECF MVP.

If JT would play / give 100% on def it might be close between him and Brown.

I mean, Brown is a good individual defender, but he gets lost and daydreams ALOT on help defense, too. Did it several times tonight.

And, again, when he's the primary playmaker setting up others and is regularly seeing double teams, that's a lot easier than Brown's offensive load and focus. That's a lot for Tatum to do on both ends.

I hope JB gets it. But to act like they're not pretty much even at this point is off base with how Brown has also disappeared in some of the games and the additional ways that Tatum is contributing that Brown is doing less of.
Such a good isolation defender, but his team defence can be very poor.

However, his block from behind on Klay was an example of how good he can be when he's locked in off-ball
His defense on that one play shutting down Curry at the three point line for like five seconds then poked it away was a more impressive bit of defense, IMHO.

The thing is, Golden State did a lot of things well, the Splash Bros showed up, so did Wiggins, they went on some runs and played solid defense for stretches... and lost by 16 still.

Also, Curry looks a bit banged up. I'd like to think the C's are wearing them out a bit too

Other franchises win Finals because: superstars. This Celtic franchise will win this Finals because: team!!!
Not just team, but a largely home grown team besides Al and White. It feels so much better because it's organic (as I'm sure it did for Warriors fans pre-KD)
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
