Lettuce NBA!

Walking Phoenix was ****ing marvelous and I will go to my grave believing him getting best actor for joker (beyond ****ing mediocre) was a makeup call for him getting jobbed out of gladiator and the Johnny cash flick
Crowe sucked
gladiator was a good movie, though i agree it seems overrated. and yeah it was pretty gay nttawwt
joker was one of the worst pieces of **** i've ever seen, though some of the acting performances like phoenix were ... committed. i'll give them that. prob papered over what a pile of crap it was

Just makes it obvious that the easiest way to win an oscar is to either gain or lose a bunch of weight.

you must be joking if you think walking lines of hot summer phoenix asphalt is somehow better than cold rivers of rain
I really, really, disagree. Over the last couple of years, Boston has cooked the Mavs. Boston's lineup is close to ideal for defending Luka and Kyrie because they have so much length and versatility on the perimeter. That isn't dispositive because Luka and Kyrie can score on anyone. But Boston's offensive depth is a real problem also. The Mavs have no choice but to play Luka and Kyrie forty minutes a game. That means Luka has to defend Jaylen or Tatum almost the entire game and Kyrie has t
Agree if KP plays and is KP but if he can't really be that then the Mavs chances start to get much, much better. Celts basically have 0 bench, just random white guys.
Think if Mavs win it'll be similar to how they've won the last 3 games they've played, hang around and pull it out late a few games in this series. Probably win series with a negative PD. Their ability to blow a team out seems pretty low given lack of firepower.
I'd still maintain Minn is a tougher matchup for Celts. How shaky both of those teams can be in late game execution would be something to watch in the finals.

Joker 2 trailer looked great!
Though Dc is notorious for terrible sequels lately.
Wouldn't be surprised if that dude has a concussion.
A knee to the head like that yeah
I think it was the back of the head too
yeah that would sting
twolves mostly wasting everyone's time here tho, im mad. will prob carry a grudge going forward
Gotta make thing easier for Boston
How do you beat the Mavs?
If anyone can blow a 2-0 lead, it’s Jason Kidd
Yeah towns go ahead and take a 3 you moron
these guys really gotta stop falling down on every shot for no reason
Doncic plays a bit like Oscar Robertson. Very slow, laborious drives, with a big, strong body overmatching the opponent, always looking to dish the assist at any time, capable of pulling up with slow jumper at any time ... and you can' t stop it. Most drives are speed based. Not Oscar and Luka.
Ok, so both the ECF and WCF being boring as **** probably isn't ideal, but bright side, at least the Celtics won't get like 9 days off
MN sports are such a drain, no matter what always ends in failure
Maybe it's the 2004 RedSox moment for them
what is the scenario the finals start june 3rd instead of 6th?
alt timeline
it's crazy because the bucks probably go to the final and maybe even win if giannis doesn't get injured at the worst time, lol sports
the bucks kept losing in the playoffs because they were suffering key injuries at the worst time, and maybe were too thin overall. think middleton got hurt in 2 different seasons, and last year it was giannis.
(also bad luck drawing the heat as an 8 seed)
giannis doesn't hurt last year, they don't lose to the heat. probably go a couple rounds, if not make the final or ship. maybe then they don't make that stupid jrue for dame trade or fire coaches until they get to GLENN streams. and if giannis doesn't get hurt again this season, have a decent shot to ship again. maybe get at least one of them
they have such horrible luck with injuries, losing giannis around playoff time twice in a row (plus the middleton stuff in previous years, etc). not that most teams don't have to deal with injuries, but
anyway giannis turns 30 this year and they probably ruined their franchise for no reason. oh well
It would be cool to talk the finals a little bit now that both teams are 3-0
but with KP status up in air, hasnt played in a motnh, who knows what he has
just feels hard to say much
if hes KP i think celts got nice edge, if he isnt then i think mavs got nice edge
This has been the worst playoffs I’ve seen in a long ass time
