    Anyone watching Portland/Boston game?

    Boston blows a 20+ point lead.

    Then near the end Boston manages to get the lead up but two bad calls go against them in the final minute. Phantom backcourt call and a phantom foul against Boston. Portland down three and they go for a layup instead of shooting a three under 5 seconds with no timeouts. And in the end Tatum misses a FT and the scores lands right on 4, which was the line.

    NBA is back!

    Yeah 3 seconds is more than enough time to dribble and shoot, very dumb decision.

    Players are shaving points. This is why I bet the Celtics ML. I saw it coming from a mile away.

    Good comeback, good game, came up short though.

    Damian Lillard is a winner though in my eyes now. He tries hard and carries that team, really wants to win. That dude has game and is clutch on a suspect team.

    Wasn't fishy at all, Lillard got trapped hard by 3 guys after the first dribble, Celtics played a perimeter lockdown with 5 guys at the 3 point line and leaving the paint wide open. Nurkic had no choice but realized after the fact he shoulda maybe done something different.

    If anyone thinks any of that was staged, you should just stop watching basketball.

    It was probably a dumb play to take layup but Dame does have the best touch from 30+ foot in league

    What's the difference between the NBA and the WWE?

    At least the WWE admits it's fixed.
