11sanchez11 Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I saw that the C's/Nets series had the closest point differential in the playoffs. Was only +18 so it seems true, tho I didn't check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Draymond returned in March, Steph was injured. The playoffs is the first time all three of those dudes have played together for an extended period this season. They're leading the playoffs in PPG (7 PPG more than Boston) and have a FG% that's nearly 4% higher than Boston's. They're also #2 in Offensive Rating at 117.1. During the regular season, they had four dudes average 17+ PPG (Steph - 25.5, Klay - 20.4, Poole - 18.5, and Wiggins - 17.2). In the playoffs, Steph, Klay, and Poole are all averaging right in line with their regular season numbers. Wiggins took a slight hit at 15.8. All are scoring fairly efficiently. Golden State is deep in terms of guys who can score the basketball, and they have great outside shooting. That distinguishes them from the two squads that took Boston to seven games. Miami and Milwaukee didn't have lead scorers who were knockdown shooters and shot creators. Jimmy was impressive as hell, but he's not a consistent outside threat. Do you think that Boston wins that series if Jimmy had Klay Thompson instead of Max Strus? I don't. Well Boston should just forfeit now.

Kip Smithers Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 That turnaround shot Tatum had from that out of bounds pass was fly AF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Butler hits that 3 it's probably up there with the worst losses I'd experience as a Boston sports fan. If they choked away a 2 game lead, and 13 (?) lead with such little time to play, I'm not sure I would have recovered. I thought for sure it was going in. So pumped for this team and it's young core + Al who deserves it more than anyone. #4More Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really getting a Horford tattoo if they pull it out. The Horford dunk on Giannis is already one of my favorite basketball moments ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
