  1. Celtics are a hell of a team. No weakness. Everybody perform. They dont need a superstars. Team work wins above all .

  2. This is over folks.
    Boston is the best team in the nba today,that`s all.
    It`s a pity that Denver is not in the finals.
    It would have been a better playoff.

  3. 2024 Celtics will be seen as one of the Greatest Teams in NBA History. Total dominance this season. Wonderful team performance and coaching deserves praise and respect 🙏💪❤ 🏆

  4. After this strong Season i predicted the Celtics gonna make the Finals. And after Game 3 i think they gonna win it all

  5. I still dont understand how can Dallas play the Finals. Its just a team looking how Doncic play until he shoots ANY ball in ANY way. So poor as a team. Boston deserves the 4-0

  6. "Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise […] If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."

    Lewis continues, "Probably earthly pleasures were never meant to satisfy it, but only to arouse it, to suggest the real thing. If that is so, I must take care, on the one hand, never to despise, or be unthankful for, these earthly blessings, and on the other, never to mistake them for the something else of which they are only a kind of copy, or echo, or mirage. I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find till after death; I must never let it get snowed under or turned aside; I must make it the main object of life to press on to that other country and to help others to do the same."

    – C. S. Lewis, from Mere Christianity, pp. 135-137. Published by HarperCollins.

    "Know that the life of this world is only play, and idle talk, and pageantry, and boasting among you, and rivalry in respect of wealth and children; as the likeness of vegetation after rain, whereof the growth is pleasing to the husbandman, but afterward it drieth up and thou seest it turning yellow then it becometh straw. And in the Hereafter there is grievous punishment, and (also) forgiveness from Allah and His good pleasure, whereas the life of the world is but matter of illusion." ( Quran. Surah Al-Hadid. ayat 20 )

    "O, ye who believe! Bow down and prostrate yourselves, and worship your Lord, and do good, that haply ye may prosper."
    ( Quran. Surah Al-Hajj. ayat 77 )

  7. I enjoyed Game 3 with Kyrie finally waking up and reminding everyone that the Mavs have their place in this final. In my opinion, IF LUKA hadn't been taken out, THE MAVS WOULD HAVE WON GAME 3.

    I'm rooting for the Mavs.
    However, THE MAVS HAVE ONE MAJOR FLAW without which, they would have won at least 2 out of 3 Games:
    – THEIR MAN-TO-MAN DEFENSE is so catastrophic that I EVEN PREDICT the next 3-point basket by the Celtics:
    When YOU LEAVE a Celtics player OPEN on the 3-point line while you're in the paint and then you literally wait for the pass and reception of the ball by the opposing player on the 3-point line hoping to get back in time to prevent the 3-point shot, it's like pretending to be Flash.

    I wonder what the Mavs' coach is for ?
