Another epic meltdown by a DocRivers-coached team. Probably a coincidence, but...
The catalyst for the comeback was Trae Young, who already has one playoff series win under his belt (Luka, 0). Young obviously knows how to involve his teammates at the right time, and actually makes good players better.
Yeah, I'd say the Hawks are definitely feeling pretty good about the trade about now. Young goes dishin', Luka goes fishin'.

These playoffs are so depressing to watch now knowing that the Mavs had a great opportunity up 2-0 with 3 home games left to get past the Clippers.
It's frustrating watching Atlanta and Phoenix do what they are doing right now and the Mavs sitting at home.
Then KL gets injured the series right after we play them (so frustrating)
Luka puts up video game numbers and they still lose the series.
I think the Mavs really blew a great chance to advance this post season.

A lot of people are starting to wonder whether the Mavs lose the series BECAUSE Luka puts up video game numbers.
But Luka got his All-NBA fake-honor, and will get the super-max, which was his real goal all along.

Naw I won't say cancer but I think here's something to the video game numbers...if you look at Lebron...he could easily average a triple double a game like Westbrook. But he's managed to preserve his body the best he can at his age. James Harden does it to an extent....yes they both are hurt now but to me that's more of another pressing issue.
But Luka can't keep upholding this type of production and being fresh by the 4th quarter. I Won't say Luka is a cancer because to me its not his doing.

Adrian Wojnarowski: The Celtics are trading Kemba Walker, the No. 16 overall pick in the 2021 draft and a 2025 second-round draft pick to Oklahoma City for Al Horford, Moses Brown and a 2023 second-round pick, sources tell ESPN. 1 min ago – via Twitter wojespn
I don’t know anything about Moses Brown, but sure seems like Boston got fleeced?

Kemba has a bad knee. I guess Boston thinks he's done. Both Horford and Kemba have 2 years left on their contract they save some cap space because Horford's partially guaranteed in the 2nd year.

Yeah and if I'm guessing correctly I think they are just going to give Kemba the Hortford role....Hortford I think wants to play and they coudlnt' just sit him for no reason next year. So ship him out and bring in a guy with injury issues they can sit to tank.

They have 19 1st round picks over the next 7 years. How much more tanking does he need to do?

I mean those picks suck for the most part. Their draft pick is the one that's going to be the highest....I'm just not sure how much a Clippers draft pick is worth....

Looks like Harden is back to his old flopping self. Refs need to stop bailing him out. Looks like he is kicking his feet out on his 3’s.

Bud apparently forgot you have to draw up a play after a timeout. Brooke Lopez with the brain fart and gets a shot clock violation. Durant hits a ridiculous shot to tie the game. Incredible game 7

Probably not. Brooklyn would’ve won had they hired Vaughn as head coach and not Steve Nash and Mike Dan and Tony.

I could not believe this all the way around. It was a strange play call but also how did he not know to shoot it? His block in OT was huge though.

Huerter scored 27 points against Seth Curry. Defense matters when it counts.

Ben Simmons with another stinker. I wonder if the 76er’s look to shake things up this offseason.

You think? Maybe Dallas could get Simmons so he can join a cast of characters that can continue to not support Luka on offense.

lol Sixers fans are throwing out Simmons for Lillard.
That would be like trading KP for Kevin Durant.

Just glad that Cade is going east it looks like. Sick of most good young players coming West. It's so loaded with young stars in West. Luka, Morant, Zion, Booker, and Mitchell.

I rly hope Suns win. CP3 is kinda a tool but I like when a vet like him wins a ring without riding another's tailcoat. And I have always liked booker.

Playoff P is back!
Sucks that both of these teams aren’t at full strength, but injuries happen. As much as I dislike CP3 fuck the Clips. Suns in 4!

I'm good with Bucks or Suns. Hate the Clippers and don't like Trae Youngs showboating, although I do like the the rest of the Hawks. Wish we got Bogdonovic and he wanted to play with Luka.

God I would love to have John Collins, Clint Capella rolling to the rim with Luka and Bogdonovic as a secondary ball handler/creator. Our team sucks compared to the Hawks. Thanks a lot Donnie

Came out of the Spurs and worked with Marks on the Nets. I’m guessing this would have been a guy on the search firm’s radar.
