Game 6 tomorrow night will be a great test for them. If they are able to close out a close game on the road in a series clincher it will give them a lot of confidence going forward.

Are we all just waiting for the Thunder to hoist the trophy?

It seems like it.

It'll be a slow burn to retirement now. Very sad to see.

Unusual to see a player this young do an achilles.

You're seeing a lot more soft-tissue injuries caused by cumulative stress these days.

The game is so much more athletic these days that muscles and tendons are being subjected to far more wear and tear.

Normally, I'd roll my eyes at a comment like this. But this playoffs? I believe it!

I think this got lost because of Gordon's shot.

I get the foul thing when you are up 3. I didn't get why they rushed to foul though. They could have played D and take off 3-4 seconds of each possession.

Let's ask the prophet!

Nomad, how does the rest of the playoffs play out?!

blackvodka · 05-14-2025, 06:44 PM

White stepped up in the 1st quarter. Maybe this will be a close game.

Thunder have the momentum sure. But Denver has Jokic and the experience. This could be really close.

As a Pacers fan I want all series to go to 7. So lets go Nuggets.

Delta5 · 05-14-2025, 07:49 PM

it's a win win for me, either I can watch Celtics get eliminated or I can see Tatumless Cs win and prove how overrated he is

Delta5 · 05-14-2025, 07:51 PM

Derrick White says. Who needs Tatum, I'm the next Tatum

hxcmilkshake · 05-14-2025, 07:56 PM

This is exactly what the Knicks want. Down 14. Now it will be a game.

KAT whines.
Tatum’s fine.
Celts in 7.

It's really bad when the Knicks announcer calls the quarter "surreal."

Now Brown can put the team on his back to prove he's better than Tatum like everyone says, right?

Pretty much

coltsnsox07 · 05-14-2025, 08:36 PM

Oh boy New York.
Now what they need is to have Jaylen Brown, Derrick White and lets say Payton Pritchard get injured and maybe they can win the next game and close this thing out.

Tatum was rhe problem

Nomad · 05-14-2025, 09:44 PM

T-Wolves impressive. Their beyond the arc shooting like Hali on a day.

drobfan8 · 05-14-2025, 09:58 PM

Would love to see the Cs get it to a game 7.

The Knicks after all, aren't some juggernaut that everyone was scared of.

Boston took the season too lightly thinking they'll be in the Finals and now they aren't ready for a decent team that has one of the best closers in the game.

I thought Boston had elite defenders? Seriously.

Next game should be fun

ninjacookies · 05-14-2025, 10:06 PM

Most New York performance ever. Conehead flu game > zesty KAT playoff shrinkage.

Also; Pat Riley knew.

Nomad · 05-14-2025, 11:11 PM

Man, Warriors have a problem. Without Steph, no one even bothers to comment on the team.

Bunch of scrubs otherwise.

blackvodka · 05-14-2025, 11:16 PM

I'm just happy there's a game I can watch Friday night.

Derrick White is a guy you know can have a big game every so often.

Oof. What a whiff.

Just thankful we were all blessed with a healthy dose of the undercover high school cop before they faded off into the polluted sunset.

First one in; last one out.
Gritty.
Heady.
Fundamentally sound.
Sneaky athleticism.

Classy.
