    Yep. Probably the same result if Halliburton had the ball. Then again, he doesn't even need any help losing the ball in those circumstances.

    I've always liked Jrue. He comes up big when needed in the playoffs.

    Honestly I am beginning to hate the clear path foul. Tired of the extra 5 minute time out to decide if it is or not.

    Hate to see Dallas win it all but I hope they wipe the floor with the Celtics.

    It was insanity that they reviewed that last foul for a clear path foul. Is the modern NBA that soft that a touch foul is up for debate. I might understand if he got decked but it wasn't close to that at all.

    the league is trying so hard to market jayson tatum as this new age kobe bryant but his personality or lack thereof is so dry. At least with james harden he was polarizing in a awkward kinda meme-making way. Tatum is bland and is a glorified danny granger

    The Clippers were down their best player and Denver was knocked out for them.

    This season has been funny.
    Seriously, the way the game is Reffed literally changed after the all star break
    Silver just old the REFS to allow more
    The Refs don't seem to know what that means and have been Madd inconsistent
    I'm watching games were Quarters 1 and 3 are kind of previous years of touch fouls
    then 2 and 4 turn into Rough and Tumble 90s ball
    (that is an over simplification but you get the point

    I always thought SIlver would tell them to call more fouls because the Offense went out of Control.

    May the Celtics win that trophy this year, they deserve it and prefer them over Dallas any day of the week. Also they made the Finals and should've won last time against the Warriors, but they choked.

    Also Pacers lost this long before the last 2-3 plays. They were up 109-103 and just tried to play out the clock rather than actively try to score. I HATE this tactic in any sport, especially basketball and football (soccer). When up, I get playing a bit more defensive, not looking to score as badly but you cannot just mess around and just play the clock. Rarely works, too often the other team scores and they lose more often than not too.
