everything is much sweeter after a Celts blow out.Poole telling the ref the call on JJJ was good was a chef's kiss.
Ja vs Steph is the nightcap we all needed
I think a lot of it has to do with him being supremely confident with his left hand.. is he ambidextrous?All I know is that Morant does things nobody else can do
I'm not sure what a carry is any more.Morant has a super egregious carry every time he stutter steps during a drive to the hoop. Everyone else sees that, right?

Yeah, I think the Warriors will win because Steph and Klay aren't going to be this bad from three the rest of the series. But, IMO Ja is the best player on the court and you can win a lot of series by having the best player on the court.Maybe, but the bigger deal is that Klay Thompson has been beyond awful tonight. 5-19, 2-12 from 3, and a terrible turnover with a chance to tie.
Which scorer doesn’t do this when launching into a drive? They call carries very loosely, right or wrong.Morant has a super egregious carry every time he stutter steps during a drive to the hoop. Everyone else sees that, right?
Yeah, yeah, travels and carries are loosely enforced. I get it. But I mean, I watch the NBA. I don't see anyone doing what he does every possession.Which scorer doesn’t do this when launching into a drive? They call carries very loosely, right or wrong.
I mean, if you’re saying it’s a carry if you dribble, then stop and put your hand under the ball and hold it by your shoulder for a beat, then rotate your hand so it’s on top of the ball and dribble again...then sure it is a carry.Morant has a super egregious carry every time he stutter steps during a drive to the hoop.

Glad we cleared that upI mean, if you’re saying it’s a carry if you dribble, then stop and put your hand under the ball and hold it by your shoulder for a beat, then rotate your hand so it’s on top of the ball and dribble again...then sure it is a carry.
Sucks but they have enough depth to absorb it.Fractured elbow for GP2. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
With that windup, it wasn't great.I’m with Kerr. That was a dirty play.
I seem to recall he and Coach K getting into it during a game once.Kerr aside, Dillon Brooks has always been a bit of a thug and a fraud. This is my favorite moment from his college highlight reel…

I just posted about it. It was after the game that K pulled him aside. But watching videos of it, I think it was because took a 3 up by 11 with 8 seconds left, and not some dirty play.I seem to recall he and Coach K getting into it during a game once.
I posted it at the time of the foul, but I think Memphis is a better team without Dillon Brooks right now.Just like how Memphis was unfortunate to have not won Game 1, after Draymond was ejected and getting a career-game from JJJ; Golden State is unfortunate to not win Game 2. Bane is banged up, JJJ crashes back to earth, Brooks ejected after a few minutes; but Ja puts Memphis on his back. Should be a great series.
The incident would have probably blown over if K hadn’t decide to lie about it ever happening to the press, despite knowing the whole thing was on video. Brooks on the other hand apologized to K directly and to the media.I just posted about it. It was after the game that K pulled him aside.

Yes there is a clear rule on what is and isn’t a carry. He was called for one the other night when the ball came to a rotation pause with his hand resting under it but for the most part his handle is so quick to at the rotation never comes to a complete pause to trigger the violation.I mean, if you’re saying it’s a carry if you dribble, then stop and put your hand under the ball and hold it by your shoulder for a beat, then rotate your hand so it’s on top of the ball and dribble again...then sure it is a carry.
Maybe that’s a good thing? If the Celts get there they’ll be much more battle tested. Silver linings?!Philly is painful to watch
Hoping Embiid can come back and make this a series
Otherwise, Miami will have had a bye for 2 rounds

He is torturing Luka. Luka is Harden level bad defensively.Chris Paul takeovers are kind of awesome
The narrative of "Chris Paul is great, but fades when it really matters"... might have to be retired.Chris Paul takeovers are kind of awesome
Better than when Jae Crowder was cooking him. At least Paul is a future HOF'er.He is torturing Luka. Luka is Harden level bad defensively.
