I just saw the Jimmy Butler miss.
I want to cry. I hate both teams but I love Butler. Ugh.

Jimmy gave absolutely everything he had the past two games, he's got nothing to be ashamed of. No one hits every game winner, despite what the Kobetards might tell you.

All things being equal I would favor the Celtics in this matchup, they have a switch heavy team with no defensive liabilities to throw at Golden State. I just wonder how much the last two series have taken out of Boston.

Has to be the most bittersweet moment for Brad Stevens to get the Celtics to the finals but not as a coach, someone had to be brought in from the outside(Udoka)to get them over the snide.

Warriors in 6.
Boston nearly lost their massive lead to Jimmy Butler alone. They couldn’t stop him all series. They have no shot at stopping the Warriors. Plus the injuries are going to bite Boston in the ass in the Finals. They have no killers on that squad and Golden State has plenty.

Big Al Horford made 5 million dollars last night while shooting 2/9 and putting up 5 points. His defense was tough though.
Reason he made 5 Mil was he had a contract bonus of 5 Mil if Boston made the Finals.
He can make an additional 7 MIL if they win it all.

To be fair Horford has been brilliant most of the play offs.
I’ll take the Warriors in 6. I know it’s a boring prediction, I just think their fresh legs will get out to a lead and they’ll see it home.

Warriors in 5 Random question how many more years does Lebron play I say 3 Until his son plays about 30 games if he makes it that far. Then James retires IF he stays healthy.

I would love for Boston to pull off the upset, but I have to agree for all the same reasons, plus the Warriors experience.

The team to eliminate Jimmy Butler in the last 3 years:
Toronto Raptors: Won Championship Los Angeles Lakers: Won Championship Milwaukee Bucks: Won Championship Boston Celtics: Warriors in 6!

Oh shit. I just remembered Marcus Smart was the one who injured Steph Curry this season.
LFG!
I love the playoffs.

Curry is killing it in the first quarter 21 points and efficient so far

Curry going off like that and not being able to build a lead is a bad sign for Golden State.

That was really exiting game 1, never at any point did it seem like the celtics were going to win yet they win easy.

I didn’t think either Klay or Draymond were particularly bad. Poole may not be playable in this series because he can’t defend and turned the ball over a lot, but Draymond was all over on defense, got boards and facilitated well. Klay’s shot wasn’t falling, but they were okay looks for the most part.

If shooting the basketball was the only part of the game, sure.

I doubt GS loses another quarter 40-16 this series. I’m still riding GS in 6 and speaking of Draymond, he is right about saying they outplayed Boston for 40 minutes. They’ll be alright.

If shooting the basketball was the only part of the game, sure. Only thing he did well was rebound, and it wasn't well enough to make up for 4 points on horrendous shooting. His defense wasn't very good either, as Horford dropped 26 right on his head.

Golden State to win the series is +160 on DKNG and +140 on FanDuel.
I dropped a little on DKNG for the better odds. Eat my Kings, eat.

Interesting note;
The Warriors are 1-8 in their last 9 NBA Finals Games WITHOUT Kevin Durant.

If the Warriors win this series, they will move into 3rd place in nba championships, of course they will never catch the Lakers or Celtics.
