5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep
- Thread starter RSN Diaspora
- Start date
Honestly I kind of hope so. I’m almost having a hard time getting into these playoffs knowing full well there was essentially no chance of either first two series going deep. Idk if anyone feels the same way…it’s weird.
I was just talking with a Cavs fan co-worker of mine about that. He was really aggressive and quite impressive. And he'll be 23 next month.
Aesthetics taking a back seat to getting the job done with minimal wear and tear.
As in back seat of a vw microbus.
It’s so disappointing how this team just plays like those of the past.. what did that ‘86 team ever do after going 8-2 in the first two rounds..
I wonder if Strus brought a change of clothes or if he'll wear the Panthers jersey when he slinks out
I’m torn, I think if you told me OG Anunoby and KP are both 10 days away I’d prefer Sunday.
Yes. That was the only must-watch studio crew for me in the last decade or so. Unwatchable with the addition of Draymond.
More awesome if it's Knicks/ Pacers. If the Knicks win on Friday, I want game one Sunday afternoon.
My Sister In Law was at the game, so I texted my brother that she was on TV, then sent the link. He got a chuckle out of it, and forwarded it on . I have a feeling I am free from family obligations there going forward.
What's the line is on the number of times Doris somehow mentions Joel Embiid during the ECF?Breen the Knick and Doris? Swell...
I'm 99% certain Russell Wilson, Ciara, and kid were courtside next to the Cleveland bench, but I was opposite and they never put him on the jumbotron. I'm guessing he asked them not to, for fear of getting booed.
Speaking of the jumbotron, it went a little wonky in the first half, not unlike the Cs, but played hard the entire second half.

Oh, I was wondering about this tweet. Didn't recognize who "the Wilsons" were.

Game threads are a great place for ridiculous post-game opinions, so with the possibility that my opinion is even more ridiculous, I actually loved it. As much as it drove me crazy during the game, and as little as I care for Mook generally, I have a shitload of respect for what he did out there last night. Facing elimination, woefully short-handed, playing a team that should crush them, the Cavs gave it everything they had and did so largely on the back of Morris, a 34-yo journeyman who had no business keeping his team in the game. Of course Tatum is the superior player and had an even better night, but two warriors meeting in the arena after the fight to share respect? Looooved it.
I feel this way 100%. I can't remember going through two rounds of playoffs like this in any sport. I'm not sure any team ever has gone through two rounds like this. I'm not talking about being huge favorites and winning the series in 4 or 5 games. That happens every year. I'm talking about being huge favorites and then having your opponent be down their best player, plus other injuries (Jacquez for Miami, Allen and LeVert for Cleveland), thus rendering completely unthreatening. It's bonkers.
I know it's been said before, but whoever does Janos is a true master of comedic language. The consistency, the arrangement of spaces and punctuation marks, the little spelling alterations that are somehow both plausible mis-spellings and hilarious ... it's just so well done. It quite literally makes my life better. I hope I never know who it really is because I don't think there's a way it couldn't be a disappointment. I want to imagine this weird little eastern european security guard who eats soup and boozes it up and loves the celtics forever.
You got me to scroll through his most recent tweets. He absolutely brings joy to my life as well. Congrat on beat mouse team and clapper is loose is usual suck for beard guy were epic.
Made me think of Checkpoint Charlie, which we went by a few years ago on a tour.
Here's his car
He kept making shot after shot, the most ridiculous one didn't even count (stepped out of bounds at the intersection of the sideline and the baseline, a prayer but an absolute bullseye)
On re read, this line cracked me up and deserved more love.
How often does Indy make the Conference finals?
maybe a carryover from Fever Fever?
