I see why Tatum and Mitchell are friends. They pull the same disappearing acts in games.

Cleveland just had one of the worst offensive quarters I've seen in a while

Magic just OVERWHELMED the Cavs with their size and athleticism. I don't think the Cavs scored for a good 5 minutes to end that 3rd.

It’s sucks to see how teams are showing pride playing in their home courts while our team disrespect our fans every playoff run. One of the best fanbases in the league

47-13 in the 2nd half for the Magic. That's all she wrote. What's a good film to watch? LOL. Not really interested to watch the Pels-OKC game.

Looks like it's gonna be Timberlwolves vs Nuggets, out West.
And OKC Thunder against Clippers/Mavericks Winner.

Would be really weird if OKC faces Celtics in the Finals.
After our G-League Teams faced off, in their Finals.

Yeah we ain’t winning **** with Tatum. Look at young teams like Minnesota, Orlando and OKC showing poise and composure that we have never seen in the jays era.

I feel your frustration, but can we at least wait for these teams to reach the conference finals before putting them on the level of the Jays? JT has gone to 4 conference finals and one Finals by age 25 (JB five ECFs by age 26). That wasn't happening if they didn't show enough "poise and composure."

Celtics are playing by far the worst opponent of the top contenders in the league and they are the only one having issues in the first round.

I feel like your outrage is happening a little prematurely. They lost one game. If they follow that up with more BS then I'll be right there with you.... But, they lost ONE game.

Yes, it's really disappointing that they've so far slipped up in one game this postseason (it's only 1-1 after all w/ the first being a blowout win), but it still doesn't take away the fact that they've had more success than any of the teams you're mentioning. Wolves btw have vets in Gobert, Conley, and Towns as their starters. Age-22 JT (as Ant is now) had gimpy Kemba as his only vet when he led the Cs to the ECF in 2020.

Not really with the track record of the last 3 years. It looks like they haven’t learned anything from previous playoffs runs

Maybe change your user name to CelticsShame24.

These Tatum takes of yours seem to be coming from a place within rather than based in reality.

But I thought Spo was a genius coach and Bam is unstoppable.

In all three playoff games decided so far today, the loser scored in the 80s.

Just goes to show the playoffs is different.

Cs need to adapt to the physicality and no calls.

Can the Lakers get me one win? Dang at least make it look like Denver might lose the series if they played three more weeks against you blindfolded and without Jokić.

Just finish the series.

Lakers are trash anyway.
