I don’t mind Dallas. Always been a Kyrie fan
Same. I like Luka alot too. Is it crazy to say Dallas will have the two best players in the series against Boston?

I swear, if these greedy network heads take Inside The NBA away from me, I will never forgive them.

Edwards gets a pass from me because he's 22 and the MJ comparisons were retarded to begin with imo
It’s exactly like MJ. He was getting crushed in the playoffs his first few years.
MJ was 28 before he won his first

Edwards likes to talk shite more than he likes to do the things to win. Dude needs to grow up.

I know Tatum hate is all the rage right now and I do think he’s a tad overrated, he’s definitely better than Kyrie as this point in their careers, IMO

MJ probably had crack addict teammates to depend on early on. I am not seeing the comparison either.

Chuck pointing out KAT is 4/32 from 3 the last 5 games. Had no idea it was that bad.

Tatum and Brown are ranked higher than Kyrie in any NBA player rank you can find.
According to the Ringer's NBA player rank from April:
1. Luka #2
2. Tatum #7
3. Brown #25
4. Kyrie #30
5. Porzingis #39
6. White #42
7. Holiday #47
The Celtics have all five of their starters ranked in the top 50. They have a big talent advantage and will be favored against whoever they play.

Welp. Like they say... games aren't won on paper. We're about to find out if Boston is the clear winner, Baw. Get ready.

Those subjective rankings don’t mean much right now (if they ever did, since it’s not based on any statistical metrics). Nobody who was watched both teams consistently since the trade deadline believes White or Holliday have been having a bigger impact on games than Washington or Lively.
But probably more relevant than that is the fact that Boston will have having a hard time figuring out what to do about Gafford and Lively. They don’t have anyone on their roster like that and will have to choose between giving up the boards or sacrificing some floor spacing/shooting.
Another interesting aspect is that PJ Washington is the exact type of defender who completely neuters Porzingis. He’s smaller and quicker laterally and gets up his upright dribble, but also long enough that he can’t comfortably shoot over him with a clear sightline before KP doesn’t elevate well on his jumper. And that’s assuming his health even allows for that to matter.

I can tell you don’t watch much of the NBA outside of Dallas.
Posted on 5/26/24 at 10:31 pm to NawlinsTiger9
Tatum is a much better player than Kyrie, but his end of game metrics in the postseason are arse. His shooting percentage in the last 5 minutes in the playoffs is all time level bad.

Washington and Lively are 21st and 26th in PER since the trade deadline. Gafford is 29th as well. Neither White or Holliday are in the top 50.

Boston beat Dallas by 28 after the trade deadline.
White and Holiday were on All NBA defensive teams.
