Really cool to hear Kerr say those things. Hopefully this is just the beginning for Wiggs.

Pritchard was a pretty good pick for Boston.

It's crazy how good some franchises are at identifying talent. Straus from Miami is another.

Tatum with a great first half. Shocked Boston is hanging this tough in game 1 short handed.

Second half is kinda how I expected.
Without two starters at Miami.

Yes. Of course Brown has a big 2nd half and Tatum goes cold.

They have to find a way to get both of those guys clicking at the same time.

Great first half by wiggins. I thought dallas may give them issues. Now i am wondering if this might only go 4 or 5 games.

Wiggs’ D, in the few games i’ve watched, has been outstanding, and as enjoyable to watch as anything on the offensive end
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Players over 20 mpg and 40 games played this season, ( to weed out a couple outliers with only a few games played or situational role players on 2nd team units ) Wiggs is top 20 ( 17th ) in DEF Rating.

Smart is listed as "probable" and Horford has been upgraded to "available".

That's big.
With both those guys, I think the Celtics can steal G2.

What the fuck is this even as a sport. Heat wins by 11 two nights ago.

Now they're losing by 25. This is the final 4 of professional basketball players.

This is my third year of watching this shit product. I'd think every game should be within 5-10 points at this stage of the playoffs. If the players cared.

What am I missing here?

We kinda put a beat down on Nova in the Final Four.
Did they not care?

Blow out.

Also I don’t quite get how Horford could be back so quickly. I thought you were supposed to quarantine for five days?
