  1. Call me crazy but the celtic can beat 2017 and 2018 gsw they are all good defender and they can also put 20+ or more any of them jrue, white, brown, tatum, Al and Kristaps

  2. What a privilege when your so called top 5 player can play like a g league player and your team still up 2-0 in the series. Talk about stacked team.

  3. Nice to see defense getting appreciated. This series is a showcase of how important/impactful defense is. Preventing 2 points is as good as scoring 2 points. Yet everyone was saying oh kyrie's going to smoke d.white and jrue, best backcourt in nba history.

  4. I'm not rooting for either team. But didn't Derrick White foul Jayson Tatum with 55 seconds left when Tatum was going for a dunk? The replay showed White hitting Tatum's right hand in the block attempt.

  5. Defense is my favorite part of ball but ngl the refs missed soooo many fouls so far this series , this whole post season has been terrible officiating wise!

  6. The problem with Mavs is that their game is built around Luka. If he has a great day, he can change the outcome of the game. But it's obvious, if you learn how to disrupt and block his game, the rest of the team is doomed. With Celtics, there are several players who can take the lead if one of the top players is underperforming. And that's why Mavs don't stand a chance.

  7. Решающий шикарнейщий блок шот, как же он в вздухе дождаля пока мяч оторвался от руки и тут же блокировал, фантастика и это на последних секундах где нельзя фолит, браво Селтикс, со времен Ларри Бёрда так не наслаждался их игрой.

  8. as much as I want Mavs to win, Celtics in 5, unless there's some miracle, maybe Porzingod gets hurt, but that wouldn't matter, Celtics still have 4 other all stars, can't forget pritchy

  9. At this point, both teams are just as talented as the other, the difference is the effort. No time to only give 98%. It has to be 100% on every possession. Celtics is also taking advantage of refs not calling every contact. Clearly, that last block by White is a foul, but refs are allowing them to be physical. Mavs can't play clean from here on out, they have to match Boston's full contact defense style.
