Brogdon 3 - tie game
Rozier 3 0.05 seconds left - game over
Middleton 3 - tie game and overtime.

Every sport tends to have exciting moments/close end of game moments from time to time, basketball is no different. So yeah it was fun to watch the end of that game.

With that said, I on the whole have I hard time getting completely into bball playoffs unless it's a team I root for. Too much straight chalk in terms of who gets to the finals over the last 6-7 years

Have an upvote. NHL playoffs were much more compelling last year.

Too many teams get in.

Series are too many games.

Series are stretched out way too long.

That said, at least guys play hard for the most part. It’s what professional basketball should look like during the regular season.

That was a crazy sequence. Glad the Celtics pulled that shite out.

It's a problem when playoffs are nearly as long as your reg season!

This year's playoffs are heavily balanced. Aside from gsw/hou matchups since I expect them to win it all, any team can win on any night.

Waaaaaay too long. Ridiculous there are only 2 games today when every series is a 7 game series

I'm trying to root for the bucks because home state team and all, but a lot of that game was brutal. It was sloppier than a mid level B1G game.

20 turnovers bucks? Between that and the horrific defensive breakdowns, it was frustrating to watch.

I love the NHL playoffs because it's tense and any team can win those series.
