Everyone saying that Boston should win this or they choked. Everyone also saying the Mavs are going to win this series. Boston has a 14-2 playoff record this postseason.

Oh, that’s pathetic State Farm felt like they had to give corporate charity by hiring for their commercial a WNBA player less than 0.1% of the U.S. population “might” have heard of. LOL!

Luks is great… but soft as baby cheeks. He be putting his hands up whining for a foul call while the ball is still getting stripped out of his hands. Bruh fight for the ball before you pout. Smh

Can we stop the lunacy now? Greatest offensive duo of all time my ass. Neither of those two even get the Splash Bros treatment where every abled body are thrown at them and still make shots, making teammates open left and right at the same time.
