If Kris Middleton wasn't injured this series would have been over! He might be back for that home game but, will probably be rusty.
Boston blew a big 4th qtr lead.
Looking like rematch for the title..

Good series, but Boston let the Bucks steal last night’s game. Frankly, I’m more intrigued with the Grizzlies at this point. But, the most exciting part of this years playoffs is the absence of LeBron. The rest of the playoffs is just icing on the cake for me.

Maybe we learned something about Boston last night -- and something about the Bucks. |

The Grizzles opened a can of Whoop on the Warriors last night and did it w/o Ja. Been a while since I've seen a blowout of that magnitude. Lol |

I still like the Warriors to win the series, but the Grizzlies are for real. On a side note, I’d bet money Chris Paul (Suns) never wants to see Jose Alveraz (Pelicans) again. He was like a gnat that CP3 couldn’t swat! Lol |

Who do you guys like to win it all? I like the winner of the Bucks/Celtics to take the East. I like the Suns in the West and I like the Suns to win it all.

I saw some stats the other day on the Grizzlies.
Memory tells me in their games without JA they have a better record than the games with him.
I have no idea what other factors might have played into that.
I suppose it’s also possible that my memory is wrong as well. 😜

Golden State is loaded but they’re small and don’t fair well against big ball. The Grizzlies match up well against them, especially when Curry, Wiggins and Poole all go cold like they did all of last night. |

Update: The Heat put the 76ers out of their misery tonight. I suppose this means everyone will be calling for Rivers’ head now. B.s. IMO, you can’t coach effort into players and, with one exception, Harden has looked like a shell of himself this entire season. And, Embiid had a meltdown, apparently, after not getting MVP.

I guess they had quite the party outside the Fiserv Forum in Mel Walk EEE last night. But thankfully just two people shot during the celebration....

They got whooped last night. Game seven should be fun to watch! I think whoever wins the series will go on to win the East. |

Rivers might be the most overrated coach of all time. his teams have the record for most blown series leads, it can't be a coincidence |

I only mentioned his meltdown because his face and thumb didn’t seem to bother him in the other games. The MVP thing obviously bothered him. He said as much in his presser. I don’t think Rivers is the best coach that ever lived, but how anyone could pin this year’s results on him is beyond me. He had to deal with Ben Simmons. Management made a horrible trade because Morey has a man crush on Harden. I’m sure you saw Harden’s play. And, the last game was an absolute embarrassment. I don’t know how Harden could look himself in the mirror after that display. All things considered, I’d say even getting to the semi finals was a pretty good year. |

Didn't see that coming. Celtics wipe the floor with the Bucks in game 7.
Not sure there's any reason to board the train behind them just yet but nice job for the Green.

I haven’t really followed the Bucks for many years, but back in ‘69 when I was playing six nights a week with Bryan Lee we used to put a 2400’ tape on the reel to reel tape deck and record the Bucks’ game while we were on stage. We’d get back to the hotel around 2:00 AM and rewind the tape to listen to the game. I can still hear Eddie Doucette yelling “Bango” and “skyhook” or “basket by Al-Cin-Door”. Fun times!

I wasn’t going to be surprised with either team winning. But, I never saw the Suns laying an egg at home with all the marbles on the line. Oh well, that’s why they play the game. |

Easy come. Easy go. And wait 'till next year for the Bucks. But the Celtics had it when it mattered.
