Jazz/ Celtics

Hope is one thing.
Tremedous odds on this final matchup I would think.

IF the Celtics make the Finals, I would be estatic.
IF the Warriors miss the Finals, and break up, that would make me far happier.

I hear thee, Dom.

Needed to see more from Boston as the season winded down. They have better odds now than ever before. I should've waited

They “Should” take care of the pacers, but if it’s the Bucks next then I think lack of home court will hurt them.

BG. Before the season, I wanted to love this team. Everything pointed to the beginning of a long and fruitful run.
82 games later, and I am nothing if not perplexed with their inconsistency, my expectations are wanting.

My hope is Ainge/Brad make a few moves and cut out any dead wood/problems.

Jazz have a shot vs Houston

Hot team

I thought they were on path to take the next step up as well this year Dom. There are 1000 theories why it hasn’t happened . All is forgiven however if they step up in the playoffs.

Celts -7 against Indy game #1 tomorrow. We all know that’s the magic number in the nba and it’s still sitting hard there. Tight number. That’s is all.

we on the same train. thats the two i have money on these playoffs... and if this league was played legitimately these would be the two to meet in the Finals in an alternate world..

I'm hopeful the warriors keep winning titles. Need them to win 3 more. I think that would be the event the nba would need to really reevaluate the game.

wrong thread sorry h

jjgold · 04-13-19, 05:22 PM

I have no idea anymore

Parity setting in

SmokingKing · 04-14-19, 10:39 AM

Marcus Smart out. big blow...

but C's play the next man up mentality very well when they are counted out. lets see if they can do it again and not have to worry about Lebron being in the way....

When will Smart return?

Looks like 4-6 weeks with his oblique injury

SmokingKing · 04-14-19, 11:10 AM

looks like he could be back for the Finals if they can make it that far. ECF possible but not likely.. maybe a game 6 or 7...

stevek173 · 04-14-19, 12:31 PM

I think it's pretty obvious they'll make it that far with or without him, as will Utah.

shadymcgrady · 04-14-19, 12:40 PM

Smart is their best perimeter defender and toughest player but he's mentally crippled. Makes bone head Westbrook plays with regularity.

He could be part of the lockeroom problem aside from Kyrie who knows but his injury paves the way for scary Terry who like jaylen brown needs the minutes and confidence right now

stevek173 · 04-14-19, 12:40 PM

Very good looking guy as well.

No homo.
