2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

[celticinorlando]

Minnesota making Dallas look much better than they really are.

Not sure what the plan was tonight by the wolves on either end

[j804]

Imagine being guarded by Slow mo, Ant and the corpse of Mike Conley to Brown, White and Jrue Holiday. Can’t wait to shutdown this Mavs backcourt while Kyrie throws teammates under the bus and Luka cries to the refs.

[celticinorlando]

Well we know we won’t have to worry about a torrid pace vs Dallas

I’d like to see Boston play with some pace

Yes, make Luka run a LOT.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

this is a bad bad matchup for the mavs playing our beloved celtics

the nation is about to witness it.

[blink]

all this blathering about Kyrie and Luka both having 30+ points.
This Minn team GAVE UP.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

[hpantazo]

Timberwolves must have seen the reports of Porzingis returning for the Finals and just decided to give up

I do not feel good about this Dallas matchup.

Usually in the NBA, the team with the best player wins the series. Luka will be the best player in the series by far.

Also, Dallas is the best team in the league at closing games: something the Celtics couldn’t do all year until very recently.

Don’t expect anything from KP either.

Our 1-6>>>> their 1-6

And the gap between Tatum and Doncic isn’t as big as you are making it seem….

The gap would be in Tatum's favor if you give defense any reasonable weighting.

Yep, this is especially true in the playoffs when you can gameplan and exploit mismatches. Both Luka and Kyrie are going to be targets of mismatches and at a disadvantage defensively every trip down the floor. Literally can't say that about either of the Jays.

Only thing that worries about is the pick and roll. Al and even KP could get cooked
