Even if The Porzingod isn’t cured of his LIGMA sounding injury, if he can give us just 10 minutes that would be unreal.

If The Porzingod is able to give us 15 solid minutes that’s HUGE. His offense has been badly missed.

I can't believe I'm going to do this. But I prefer the 1997 Mariano Duncan approach. Even if it was for the MF Yankees, "We play today. We win today. Das it." While I like the macho antics, Dallas came out playing like their asses were on fire for 3 straight games at this point. We don’t need to up the ante, we need a zen like approach. Sun Tzu style. |

Yesterday Jayson Tatum said “we would love to win tomorrow more than anything. But if it doesn’t happen, it’s not the end of the world. We have more opportunities.” Those three sentences make no sense together. I’ve seen people being CONCERNED with this sentiment by Tatum and Hauser, but I like it. No need to play tight with the looming dread of an epic collapse. |

Giddy/scared. We HAVE to close this out, right? We're the better team, and we are well coached, and we can get in their heads. Right? RIGHT??!!?? We have 3 chances to chip. We HAVE to be competitive tonight, because we really weren't on friday. Play loose and hard, ball their asses off the building. |

Panthers also got absolutely SMOKED in their Game 4, losing 8-1.

I wish we had some inside knowledge on what went so terribly wrong in this game.

The 4th quarter really carried over from the last game. Just a terrible effort this half.

Going to sound weird but I've been dealing with a new toxic boss at work and soxprospects and the Finals has been a very nice respite -- brings me back to my youth when I first signed up here as a teen. Appreciate you all and looking forward to game 4. Stay strong friend and I hope you find a better working place. This board has been here for me through all the insanity in my life and I know it’s the same thing for a lot of us. Let’s chip tonight! |

No one is talking about giving Pritchard the highest salary in the NBA either. His shooting is his only real asset, but at the end of the day, he's a role player. It's comparing apples and oranges. Sure he's a role player, but had he effectively played that role to date in the finals, we'd feel pretty darn good. As short as he is and with short arms to boot, he has to hit or else sit. I love the guy..scrappy, hustler, overachiever, someone anyone would root for. I'd Love to see him with a good game even in the 10-15 minutes allotted. My gut tells me that he is a bit gunshy in the moment. His bank 3 won them game 2, like go back and see how that game was going. I respect your opinion here man, but you are wrong. Fast PP has balled, except for last night’s 4th quarter. |

I'm mad you can hear Marc Davis blow the whistle and then don't call the foul. |

I think it’s Jaylen’s to lose but ultimately it doesn’t matter. I don’t think of Pierce/Garnett differently based on who won the finals mvp and I wouldn’t with Tatum/Brown. Both instrumental I still feel like Ray Allen was the MVP in that series, which I realize is not a very popular opinion lol. |

Jesus. ESPN telling us they shouldn't have called the foul on Luka even though it was a foul. Legler is a pro and redirected to the PJW offensive foul (which I am more sympathetic to). Which they could have challenged if they didn’t waste their review on an extremely clear foul by Luka. |

I think we’re all forgetting the real MVP of this game, Jason Kidd taking that timeout at that moment. I don’t think I ever saw a worse timeout in my life.
He also played THJ for 20 damn minutes. Just a masterclass, a Boston legend IMO.

FFS a few of you went ape shit when it got tight, the man-up bus even told you there will be bumps on the road and to embrace that. Great advice given to me many moons back, "Act like you have been there before". Learn that, live that and Love it. My friend, if we chip I’ll absolutely NEVER forget the man up bus. You’re an absolute BOSS! |

I don’t want to see Fast PP shooting another off balance shot this year.

LMAO at White complaining about the foul that wasn’t called and then THJ misses the wide open 3 anyway because he’s ass.

Shot quality took a nosedive, they’re shooting everything out of balance.

Kyrie got dead beat staring at the ball at a senseless help (non) defense. A reporter needs to flat out ask him if he regrets stepping on Lucky. Hard mode: he can’t lie.
