The 2023-2024 NBA Season

Omg luka!!

luka with the big ball shot and a W for dallas. 2-0 for them

What a time for Luka to go playoff mode.

[IPC]

luka is proving that he is the best player in the final four. Dude was cold the entire 4th quarter yet had the balls to take/make the winning shot

No one from the remaining players is even close to Luka's level. Ant and Tatum are Barkley, Karl Malone, KG, Dirk-level superstars.

I did not think this series would be close or Timberwolves would lose but Luka is crazy

T’Wolves coaching staff made a mistake in their defense. It should have been KAT on the floor and not Rudy. KAT has better laterals. How many times did Dallas milked Rudy in that PNR in this game and especially in the 4th.

Also Anthony Edwards was indecisive in one play where he turned the ball. His youth is showing. That was one crucial TO.

Well they could still win 2 straight and make it interesting. Or be swept. This team is unpredictable AF. Also KAT and Edwards are really only inconsistent.

Too many crybabies about the Celtics-Pacers game yesterday. Guess what? These crybabies are overwhelmingly from the Philippines.

Pinoy fans hate the Celtics i guess... Maybe because they beat Kobe, LBJ before and Coach Spo's Miami... Those 3 are beloved by Pinoy fans.. Boston is not a popular team here in the Philippines... Here, they are in level of Atlanta or Kings in terms of popularity, Meanwhile Boston is super popular abroad, especially in US...

Pacers lack the gulang. Jaylen was not whistled for steps which means that the move is legal per the league interpretation. Celtics were able to sold lots of contacts especially on the offensive end because they were iso-heavy yesterday with Tatum, Jaylen, White and Holiday forcing Pacers to commit fouls. Siguro, it helped that they are the home team. However, if the Celtics win convincingly in the remaining games, I hope that the "cooking show" narrative dies down.

Pacers are no saints as well as they get away with lots of travel from Hali and camping on the part of Turner.

That's expected... Only Siakam has championship experience to the Pacers, meanwhile almost all of Celtics players on the team.. already experience this kind of level.. They faced Lebron / Cavs, Giannis / Bucks, Butler / Heat in this level... So they know what they will do.... Experience is the biggest edge of Celtics against Pacers...

No love for haliburton and the pacers? Lol

to be fair they overachieved

He's not at that level yet. A tier below Tatum and Ant. Hahahahaha.

Yes, the Pacers overachieved. Injuries helped, but you can't blame them for taking advantage.

Edwards with an MJ-like poster on Gafford. But it is Dallas who is looking good throughout in Game 3.

[CoJ]

so, 3-0 for both series, I dont see Minny and Indiana recovering from their respective holes

I can’t recall. But when was the last time the East and West Semis were both in a commanding 3-0 record going into Game 4?

[BJ_Reloaded]

it seems that experience plays a key role why both the Celts and the Mavs enjoys that 3-nil advantage going to their respective G4

in fairness to Minnesota and Indiana, they deserved to be in the finals of their respective conferences but it's very clear that nerves getting in the way when the going gets tough.

that was based on my own personal observation so far.

Well TBH the Pacers overachieved. Reaching the finals is already a great milestone for that team.

The Wolves though. Didn't expect them to get swept or lose 3 straight at least.

Same here, might ask chatgpt later about that

To be fair i thought the dallas-minny series would be a even affair, but yeah despite the 3-0 lead, gamea are pretty close

Boston-Indy on the other hand is a mismatch from the get go
