How ‘bout the Sun Worshippers? They’re a totally nude team. The owners love them because no payout for uniforms. Furthermore, no fancy logos, artsy designs nor furry mascots.

Winner, winners, chicken dinner!

@Region Philbis,

Matchups are tough. They can’t overcome Giannis’ impact. What can you say about a guy who, when he ran out of options, threw the ball at the backboard so he get his own rebound and score it himself. Fageddaboudit!

They’ve got some good players, but I see Celtics getting to game 6 maybe. I sure hate to sound like a fair weather fan.

@Region Philbis,

I agree. I was taken aback. They’re a well- constructed disciplined team that plays solid defense. It’s their offense that surprised. me.

@Ragman,

this one is a tough loss to swallow.

but it was a great game, hard-nosed, no easy layups...

Resurgent Harden fights his way back. Let’s see how long it lasts. I have my doubts but can’t count them out especially when Embiid returns.

@Region Philbis,

I don’t recall more excitement in a Celts playoff game in decades. I’m still n awe of how Tatum went toe-to-toe with the NBA MVP Giannis. Talk about cream ring to the top. Furthermore, Celts had 3 guys in double figures. They shut them down in 4th quarter.

They really know how to pass the Bucks! Love a Game 7 in TD Gah-den!

Go Celts!

@Region Philbis,

Wow! Those Celts are pretty steady and play great team defense.

Wonder what Miami will be like against them?

@Region Philbis,

That’s what scares me. I’m hopeful, too. They beat some (potentially) superb teams. They picked apart all of the flaws in those teams and capitalized on them. The surprise was how good their offense is. Their defense was known quality. In my mind their coach IS coach of the year. After 50 games into the season, they were sub-500 team. That never happens l

Lastly, they scored 50 more three-pointers than the Bucks!

C's - Heat is a weird series... last night was Miami's turn to mail it in.

i'm finding it hard to believe that the top players on both teams aren't always motivated to play hard this deep into the playoffs...

@Region Philbis,

Injuries must be some part of this.

@Ragman,

starters on both teams are banged up.

i think it boils down to coaching and intestinal fortitude.

C's can get some home cookin' and wrap it up tomorrow night...
