Bam showed up for like 3-4 out of the 7 games. Otherwise Robert Williams shut him down when he was healthy

I can't think of two more different teams than GSW and Boston so it should be fun and interesting

I honestly don't know if GS can shut Boston down, and boston is the team that scared me

It's the Warriors' series to lose. Rest advantage and home court. If GPII comes back they'll have everything they need really.

538 has the Celtics as an 83% favorite to beat the Warriors. Their model has always loved the Celtics even at their worst and the Warriors even at their best. So actually you're all obligated to root for the Warriors in order to make Nate Silver melt down and explain away why his models weren't actually wrong

lol he won't acknowledge it at all. That said, it is legit impressive he called the Celtics as favorites to make the finals out of the east before the regular season was over.

Jeff Van Gundy definitely has covid right?

I liked his announcing tonight with lower energy and the stuffed nose, but that simply cannot be safe, courtside in Florida, especially just before the Finals (on ABC). After the Butler three point attempt to take the lead in the fourth quarter he said if you want to live by that shot you have to be willing to die by that shot and in my own ears I could feel the unsaid weight of, "is that a metaphor, Jeff? Or...?"

The East had far more frauds than the West, pretty much the entire field except the Bucks and Celtics. The Celtics barely made it out of a complete dogshit conference.

The Heat had to play the Hawks and 76ers to get to the conf finals, and you're accusing the Warriors of having a cakewalk

Steph Curry is the only Unanimous Regular Season Most Valuable Player AND the only Unanimous Conference Finals Most Valuable Player. Soon, he might add a finals mvp. We love it, don't we folks!?

due to Phoenix imploding (I’d like to get the story behind this?) any playoff east team could have won the West .
