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

Happy for everyone on this board.

Lots of trials & tribulations but we reached the pinnacle again.

So many of us live and die by the Celtics (for better or worse). This has been a long time coming and seems like the perfect explanation mark on the new era.

It's funny looking at video of that 2008 run and seeing Horford with the Hawks.

Zinger talking to Scal and Eddie saying that he wasn?t really fit but he tried to give his best?tried to hide it because they were attacking him but he wanted to be out there to help the team

KP absolutelyhelped on D blocking shots and scoring some

Context for people who didn't see the original: after the WCF, Luka was having a beer and celebrating with his dad; then Michael Finley came by and smoothly took the beer, leaving Luka empty handed. This is hilarious

So many clowns in the media that just dog piled Boston

I just got home from the Garden, wow, I am at a loss for words. I waited half my life to see us win another ring, heartbreak and disappointment made me fear I?d never see this again. And to see it in person was a real dream come true. Go Cs!!!! 18 baby!!!!!

NBCSports Boston crew mentioning how Kyrie congratulated the C's bench with 2 minutes to go and then went back to the locker room and basically disappeared from the arena.

At the time I thought it was pretty weird he was hugging the C's before the game was over. But then he just bails on his bench in such a painful moment for his team.

He just doesn't get it.

How was the postgame?

I'm so happy for Al Horford. That guy busted his A out this entire playoffs. You can tell he was very hungry for it after falling short in 2022 and 2023.
