On this seriously, it's lame as I'm a nuggz fan that we're not the headline but LeBron possibly retiring is pretty enormous news

If he behaves like Brady then this will drag on for a few years so save the popcorn for now. This is probably a bit of a post-season come down in the immediate aftermath of a bad loss, but knowing James, a bit of positioning to force the Lakers to construct a squad that'll challenge next year.

If the Celts can do that again in Boston this could be interesting

I think Miami will finish it off at home in game 6…

Celtics too good to be swept but they seem to always have a bad game around the corner so hard to see them running 4 straight.

They’re likely to look back on this season with regret as, on paper, there’s no way that they should lose to the Heat

Same with Bucks

Celtics defensive effort has been inconsistent for months and it’s caught up with them in this series

He goes after him about that quite a lot, lol

I don't agree that you have to be an ex-player or coach to be a commentator but if your takes are as bad as Stephen A's are, folks are gonna come after you.

The whole "Nuggets gonna win this" stuff I'm seeing onESPN today is sorta worrying me. I'm not used to this sheet, must Gambhir, must Gambhir

This is indeed interesting now.

If anything, Heat Reddit is a bit more humble now

As I have said before, the Celtics have been inconsistent for months

They should have swept the Heat and the Hawks & beaten the Sixers comfortably

Now they will need to create history to beat the Heat

They’re capable of doing it as they’re more talented but I wouldn’t bet on it

Squeaky bum time, as they say.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Holy **** that might be one of the most insane finishes I've ever seen

Boston challenge changing 2fts to 3 was stuff of nightmares

 

[Anil]

Wow that was some game! Well done Boston!

Just watched the 4th. Must've been insane to see live

@andruid where you at? I'd be hype af if I were you. This is sooo badass

A week ago the narrative was "no one's come back from 0-3, but if anyone can, LeBron can. But the Celtics are complete bums - sack the coach, blow the team up"
