Game 2 vs Minnesota was a one point win. But Dallas really went heavy in the paint for scoring.

I expect this tonight. Playing more inside out.

Jure is my MVP so far. His leadership is what we were missing. He's all I hoped for and more. The Bucks made a huge mistake.

dee white and jrue seem to be the floor generals that keep us composed when adversity strikes. with a sprinkling of big al also.

Luka Doncic is now listed as questionable for Game 2. He has a thoracic contusion in addition to the right knee sprain and left ankle soreness he has been playing through.

Now media is saying the Celtics have the easiest run of all time with Doncic's injury

I was hoping for the easiest run in NBA history when the playoffs started. I don?t hope that Luka is hurt, but if he is, I hope the Cs take full advantage.  I couldn?t care less what the national sports media has to say.


Setting up nicely for a hero game for Luka and/or Kyrie.  Celts can?t get sucked into feeling like they got this in the bag.

I don't think anyone thinks less of the 2017 Golden State Warriors because Kawhi got injured.

True, people talk about it because that play led to a rules change on putting your foot under a defenseless shooter as they're landing.

But no one says the Warriors were imposters that year.  If the C's can win the title, no one will say that "easiest path" stuff in a year.

Doncic has played in several games in which he's listed as questionable.  It's just a built-in excuse if they lose.

Of course there's a random Luka "injury" to report. Building in excuses for them.

Luka is available.  Just trying to play mind games.  The Cs need to throttle them again and take all their hope away.  No let down.  Keep their foot on the gas and just win baby!

This isn't new with Luka. Each time the Mavs lose, Luka just finds himself on the injury report again as questionable and not only that, but Doncic himself references it often. He did a lot in the OKC series, which was probably Dallas' toughest series in the West and went 6 games.

Guarantee you IF Boston goes up 2-0 tonight, you'll hear Doncic spend a lot of time diagnosing his injuries and explaining how much of a grind it is, etc.
