    Draymond passing out from the paint then camping only to get the ball back from where he passed from and score is hilarious. The Warriors don't have to abide by 3 seconds?

    Dallas makes the game interesting for a few minutes and GS just flips a switch and says NOPE.

    Luka is such a bollhog, it's insane. Dinwiddie has been money on offense and can't get the ball.

    Dallas is allergic to rebounding the ball it seems

    Something so simple as offensive rebounding, stamps your ticket to the Finals. Wow.

    Making looney look like Dennis Rodman out there with all the rebounds and lock down defender. I love the rockets but the warriors ball movement is something I always admire. It will tire the opponent. Hero ball with so many threes isn’t going to cut it.

    Had GSW in 5, watched a little bit of tonight's game, and then went back to some Keegan Murray videos (which was more entertaining).

    So Mavs getting gentleman swept, GSW at least sold some extra tickets in game 5 to make a small dent on that big payroll. Is Jason Kidd still a good coach (than Monty), because, this series has pretty much been a one way spanking.

    GSW with the easiest opponents to the finals.

    Doncic had a terrible first half with his shooting and effort, but he went out swinging in the 3rd and 4th. 28/9/6 on 28 shots aint great but it's a good turn around from that disaster of a half.

    Curry, Klay, Dray and Looney showed their championship experience this entire series. Pooles been on fire, shooting over 60% for the series.

    Warriors vs Celtics is going to be GOOOOD.

    I don't care about the Mavs getting swept, but man are they tough to watch. Luka especially is almost unwatchable. If I was an opposing team, I'd want the ball in his hands all the time because unless he's totally on fire, he's going to dribble the clock out and go for a deep three or some mid range off-balance shot and leave everyone else on the floor standing around doing nothing.

    I actually thought tonight Kidd should have done what McHale did to Harden against the Clippers - bench him and see if the other guys can give you a run. Dinwiddie and Brunson were much more efficient with the ball and in spurts were getting to the basket. Luka shot the ball 28 freaking times tonight, and Dinwiddie got just 12 shots (made 7) and they scored basically the same amount.

    And I'm focusing on the offense here because on defense he's an open liability. The energy is weak and slow players get by him in a second.

    I guarantee Curry wins Finals MVP (if they win which I expect)
    It is the only thing he needs on the resume and the NBA will make sure he gets it

    Brunson was abysmal tonight. Just as bad if not worse than Luka.
