Mavericks (1-3) at Celtics (3-1) NBA Finals Game 5 6/17/24

[celticinorlando]

Next 10 hours or so going to be painfully slow.

nah, i've got too much to do. i will stay busy

but..........................remember before when i was not nervous?

now I slightly am......ugh

is that a good thing maybe?
 

this had best not turn out like game 7 ECF last year

can we finally dominate at home and end this crap?

KAY PEE MUST PLAY

if not lively will look like the second coming of robert williams with those lob dunks and boards.

Super nervous. The most I have been this entire playoff run.

Let?s get Banner 18! Different Here. Unfin18ed business. And all the other slogans I?ve forgotten

different here

unfin18ed business

It's not luck!

C us rise

GREEN RUNS DEEP (my fav btw)

please end this crap tonight. 5 man spacing and drive relentlessly on cryriew and luka until they quit. i want them hammered. pounded into oblivion. i want them so tired they cannot get back on offense after we drive on them all night.

no more stupid azz contested step back threes. open catch and shoot? ok. but this team can be beaten at the rim and foul line.

now would it be nice to finally be hot on OPEN THREES? sure!

but please do not force these stupid shots like we keep doing and getting away with it.

Team is 1 win from winning the title and I find myself to be more nervous then I am excited, almost like instinctively awaiting a collapse more so then a win, hope that gut feeling is wrong

Might be the most accurate post you have made.

Winning tonight will be more of a relief than anything that 1. that the season is finally over 2. They got it done.

Game 4 was an outlier.
Mavs won't play that well in gm 5.
We won't play that bad.
Scott Foster won't be the 6th man.

There will be no perfect storm for the mavs. This is over.

I would like to see some real offense run in the first quarter other than everyone shoots a 3, nobody rebounds and Dallas gets out to an early lead.

Boston has been pretty bad in the first quarter of these finals mainly because everyone on the floor decides to take a heat check three right out of the gate.

I feel sick to my stomach for unknown reasons. Wow, this day is going to be quicksand.

I really do not want to wait another 3 full days if we lose tonight. The waits have been so excruciating.

Just end it tonight.

Probably the worst part of it all. If they lose tonight I will not watch game 6. Just too much pressure. Will check in from time to time on it but after Friday and possibly tonight...it is exhausting.

remember that HEAT game last ECF or was it 2022? anyway he controlled the whole game where as soon as we started a run he shut it down. he ruined the game.

this is basically game 7 for us.  end it. end it now. at home.


THERE IS NO TOMORROW! THERE IS NO TOMORROW!
