    Craaaaazy finish. Robinson missed 2 huge 3's, he's probably still awake thinking about those last 2 shots he had.

    imo that was dumb, they had time. didnt have to make those shots. Lucky for him, Jimmy Bucket bailed him out. Unlucky for him, they still lost.

    this year's Denver team feels a lot like the AVS last season. So dominating, must be nice to be in Denver with back to back championships.

    If Boston makes out (which would be wild to come back from 0-3) I think they can give Denver a good run

    History either way. First 8th seed to make finals or 0-3 comeback. Both are pretty crazy streaks to beat. Been a really unpredictable year in sports. Chalk it up to analytics in action.

    Gonna be incredibly embarrassing for either team to lose. I can't recall this much shame waitng for the losing team of any 1 game.

    Tatum rolls ankle on first play and just can't recover from it. Tough luck.

    Miami @ Denver Thursday!

    Glad the heat won. Bam missing layups left and right was annoying.

    Jaylen didn't help Boston with all his turnovers.

    BOS choked hard getting blown out in gm 7 at home. MIA was playing so loose & confident. MIA been playing with house money thru the playoffs. BOS needs a new coach badly. Mazulla at 34 is younger than a couple of his players. Coaching is a bit of a chess game and he went against one of the best in Spo.

    Denver obvious huge favorites but at this point it wouldn't be all that crazy to see MIA win it all. That Pat Riley culture works. Winning consistently with a roster of mostly undrafted players is wild.

    There's enough of a sample size to say MIA is legit threat to anybody. Their reg season record and seeding makes for a great story but in terms of competitiveness almost nothing. They've taken down some giants in MIL and BOS. Makes you wonder what happened to them in the reg season. Glad its tied cuz I don't know anybody who's enough of a bball fan myself included to watch a MIA team down 0-2 or 0-3 in a game 3 or 4.

    Sidenote Spoe's gotta be dyeing his hair on a daily basis right or is it an asian thing. 52 yr old with one of the most stressful jobs known to man and not a grey hair in sight.

    The Heat was most injured team during the regular season, and they all got healthy at the right time.

    Pretty good chance CP3 signs with LAL after getting waived by PHX. One of LBJ's closest friends. Adds a playmaker to take load off LBJ and pretty good shooting.

    Didn't get to watch the game last night but whenever I checked the score, it seemed like Denver had control of the game. Joker had a big game by his stats.

    CP3 to Lakers, they'll share the workload and because of that they'll all be healthy for the playoffs

    Kind of an anticlimactic series to what was a pretty wild & unpredictable playoffs. Denver clinches in the ugliest & most bland uniforms in pro sports. Seriously they look like high school team unis.

    Denver is set up to be contenders maybe even 'dynasty' for many years. Jokic and Murray are 28 and 26 respectively. That's a very young core to win it all. Steph and Lebron were both 27 when they won their first rings.

    The question is how many can they afford to keep? The cap is going up but so will their demands. Pat Riley has called the Disease of More (I think), where everyone has an inflated value (self or market) after winning a chip. On top of that, they're not just over the cap, they're in the Super Tax bracket, so shit is going to get very expensive for them.

    Game 5 was a slog. Not the prettiest of basketball, but the refs also let a lot of contact go which leads to games like that. I think a lot of the no-calls skewed towards Miami, but overall the refs had their whistle in their pockets for a good chunk of the game.
