Long way to go but Mavs at least fighting

No need to stress this one is over, one team wants it's more than the other.

See ya in Boston in Game 5.

Anyone would think Boston have been told to do it to sell more home tickets

I dunno, if its less than 20 at 3qtr

lol I hate when they wait to see if the shot falls before calling a foul. If it’s there just call it ffs

The 2 elbows and dropped shoulder might give it away

 

[Chadwiko]

Pretty much every Boston fan saw this coming, but it's still frustrating to have to deal with such blatantly one-sided refs.

EVen when we're shooting like garbage.

 

[stewie griffen]

Gotta hit that corner triple

 

[stewie griffen]

Shooting in the .2s from 2 and 3 compared to .5

Cent make a bucket

 

[Memphis]

Mavs deciding to play D has been the difference in this game.

 

[Memphis]

PP getting bullied i don't know why he is out there.

 

[Chadwiko]

That was the worst half of basketball we've played all year.

Yeh they have lifted, but a shooting is like div 3 on a Wednesday night, we are not missing by a little bit, we are missing by a long way.

This one is gone, and sadly we turn in performances like this from time to time, just hope they put up a fight in the 2nd half, to give them something going into game 5.

 

[fidstar]

Very early signs but Boston look more switched-on to start this game than they were in game 3 so that's something

Hahaha feels like Boston aren't winning today.

That's okay. Win the championship at home in game 5.

Yep. So many fouls against JT when shooting just never called.

This season we've weirdly played some of our best basketball following a loss.

I fully expected a game 4 loss today so I'm not too stressed. I've got Tuesday off from work and get to watch Boston win Banner 18 at home. Life's still good.

I actually thought it would be even after these two games, so it is a bonus, but giving these guys some life is not ideal.

A team that starts Gafford, PJ Washington, and Derrick Jones are not going to be the first team in NBA history to come back from 3-0 down in the finals.

 

[Jack Richards]

So it's OK to shove the defender in the head...

Good ones Ref.

 

[Chadwiko]

No whistle.

 

[Memphis]

Perks of a boston fan.

 

[stewie griffen]

Down 33, it's the refs

Dallas have doubled the boards and are shooting over 50 from the floor and 39 from 3 cf to 30 and 28

8 to 19 bench points

Browns had a poor night, jrue has been awful offensively

It's a beating today, but Boston go back home in game 5 and have a few things to work on, but they shouldn't lose this series from here
