>>154498412
Tatum has little trade value thanks to his blown out knees and ankles, he's also 28 with a $55+ million contract that will go through his mid-30s.

Brown has zero trade value, even championship teams don't need nor want him. Only the most desperate teams on fire sale would take him and the Celtics will never get even almost an equal value for him back.

It will take a Luka-tier trade fix by Adam Silver to get someone like KD, Giannis or Jokic shipped to Boston with only one of the Js getting shipped out. No All-NBA player wants to sign with the Celtics, never did back then and never now; all of them ended up there via trades or were drafted. Also those first two dudes are equally as injury prone as Tatum or worse and the superteam era is over thanks to the apron shenanigans.

omfg its starting
no mfer the Magic are fucking ass, don't let the fact that they are going to game 7 vs the Pistons sway you because they are ALSO ass. They have no offense they have no shooting they were predicted by many to take a jump and be a top 3 seed just to struggle and need to win a 2nd playin game to even make the playoffs. They blew a 24 point lead by scoring under 20 points in a HALF and under 80 POINTS OVERALL. Paolo has no consistent shot, isnt as physically dominant or good at defending as Giannis and Franz is nothing special. It's fucking humorous that people think a team with them as its two best players would be able to win anything. People just forget how many ass teams there are and how many that werent trying to win so some just stack up wins against those teams but in reality suck. Thats the Magic

memechuck 3s are still here, the main difference is that teams have their own big guy who can dunk on midgets and little dudes while also being able to memechuck

The Boston Celtics' season is like that guy who says he doesn't want a slice when the group orders pizza. Then there's one slice left, and he's about to grab it, but someone else grabs it, and with a grumbling and hungry stomach, he says to everyone who just saw him get bitched out of the last slice, "Yeah, I didn't want a slice, anyways."

We smacked the bookies up last night. Clean 3-0 sweep. Got the plus odds on Philly ML and Embiid double-double. Shout out to Embiid on his redemption arc. But the grind doesn't stop. We have two more Game 7s today. Let's smash those bookies.

>Magic-Pistons over 201.5
I understand why the total is this low. But I did some deep digging. I found the Magic's 25 worst scoring games of the season. And in games immediately following those 25 lowest scoring games, the Magic averaged 112.84 ppg. Also, following a loss, the Magic are 21-19 to the over. So basically, they tend to bounce-back offensively after a poor performance. And with Wagner being out, I think their defense takes a hit. I'm going with the contrarian over in this game.

>Raptors +7.5
And you already know where we are at in this one. We've taken Raptors spread in all 6 games and went 4-2. I just don't get why bookies have priced this like a 1-8 matchup. Cavs are still the worst ATS team in the league. They are now 26-46 ATS as favorites. Raptors are a scrappy young squad. Grab the points.

>Raptors ML +240 (half unit)
And again, let's throw a half unit on the Raptors to win outright. Playing with house money in this series, so why not? Do you really want to bet on Game 7 Harden? Or Donovan?

Good luck, and don't bet what you don't have.

112.84 would still be below league average for the regular season in 2026 and the playoff average as been 106, down 9 points from the reg season average. So theatric seem more likely to score 105 than 112 imo

The "fans" are the reason the sport is dead. They need to be told what to watch and when to care. They can't just look at two Game 7s, and be like "damn these should be good games". They haven't been told by the media to get excited.

Look at this. Last year's Finals went 7 games. The first 6 games were some of the lowest rated Finals games in history. Game 7 was one of the highest rated. The retarded "fans" weren't told to be excited about the Pacers, even after their crazy meme run to the Finals. NBA "fans" are cancer. They really just want to watch Curry and Trae hit the griddy and wiggle their booties.

>>154500495
>So theatric seem more likely to score 105 than 112 imo
If the Magic score 105, then this game is soaring over the total. Unless you think they're holding Pistons to under 100 without Wagner protecting the rim.

2 of the 3 Pistons home games in this series went well over this total. I said before Game 5 that if Pistons want to win, they have to push the pace. They did. They won the game and we cashed the over.

Here are the closing total lines in each game
>Game 1: 221.5
>Game 2: 218.5
>Game 3: 215.5
>Game 4: 214.5
>Game 5: 210.5
>Game 6: 210.5
>Game 7: 201.5
That is a massive overadjustment considering half of the games have gone over this total. It seems like a Game 7 trap to me. Opened at 204.5 and got bet all the way down to 201.5? I have to go with the over. This game could easily go OT as well.

Anon a bus from nyc to philly is $20 and takes only 1.5 hours. They will go back home after every game. Lets say they get the cheapest tickets at $150 and have $40 total in bus fare, and buy food at the arena ($30) that's $220 per game and $440 if they want to go to game 3 and 4, meanwhile that same amount might not even get them in the arena for a single knicks home game. It's fucked. It will always be fucked.

good teams don't have to rely on just 1 player. sixers were able to get a win without embiid. celtics were able to get the 2 seed and have a competitive game 7 without tatum. maybe the spurs just aren't good and you only care about the story. food for thought. RETARD.

Just to put this retard's theory to rest. Here is a look at ratings over the last 10 years. It peaked in 2017, the year that James Harden won the MVP and Westbrook and Steph finished in top 3.

So tell me that the retarded NBA fanbase doesn't want to see memechucking and flopping. And again, James fucking Harden was literally in Reddit's top 10 all-time discussions.

>dude we want to see good defense and no free throws!!
>Pistons vs. Magic?? Ew, no. Those teams give me the ick

LeBron, Harden and KD were injured most of the year and Jokic led the league with solid fundamentals. But you know, the fans don't want to see flopping and memechucking. They want to see *checks notes* LeBron and Harden...

those were the years the league tried to force yawnis as a superstar by rigging the mvp and tha rang for him and ratings tanked because he's trash

KD shouldve begged for a celtics trade in 2023 and stolen jaylen browns fmvp. He ruined two cool prospects in shitbaboon and amen. And a cool young rockets core

It could be just a blip in the road depending on how the back half of his career goes. But yes, overall it's a black mark on his legacy. A chance to avenge an embarrassing playoff loss from 2 years ago, playing a team without their star, and were the higher seed. Anybody else would get dogged badly for that.

Next year is probably going to be the same team unless there's a surprise Brown or White trade
The Simons/Poocevic trade was made specifically to get under luxury tax and it takes two seasons to reset those penalties so they're not gonna be a luxury tax team in 26-27
Once Poocevic walks and they make their first round pick they'll be about $10M under the tax threshold so they might use that much of the trade exception to sponge someone else's cap casualty and maybe get a pick with it or something, could be trade-up potential in the draft maybe?
They could use a switchable center but I don't know where/how they get one, probably requires trading Hauser
27-28 will be the when they try to go for it again, until then idk run it back and give Hugo all the reps he can handle

Just take the L and keep it moving. The highest rated first round series was Lakers/Rockets because retarded NBA fans thought they would see LeBron vs KD. Fans love flopping and memechucking. Stars are just who can flop the best (ie SGA). The fans did that. Stop blaming Silver.

Hey faggot retard. The 2007 NBA Finals was the lowest viewed in history (aside from bubble year). You are typing nonsense. The 2017 Finals had more viewers than any Finals in the 90s that didn't feature Michael Jordan. It also had TWICE as many viewers than the Jokic Finals. You know, Mr. Pure Fundamental? The fans want to see flippers and memechuckers as evidenced by viewership numbers in the 2010s (peak flopping/memechucking era)

You are mistaking "90s and 00s basketball" for "Michael Jordan basketball". MJ was an anomoly. He brought in insane ratings all by himself.

You generally shoot double your normal game percentage in practice.

nfl has games once a week on the weekend so it's treated as an event that is rare and gives people FOMO, and has a tailgating culture because of this. basketball has 82 games and most of them take place during the week which makes tailgating not a thing, not to mention the arenas are a fraction of the size of the nfl stadiums. less people in the crowd = less irl memories to be made, over time this snowballs into less people ever having gone to an nba game. also people learn about the nfl and football via the superbowl (biggest us advertising event of the year) because it's only 1 game but the nba finals are 7 games so there isn't 1 massive party for it because there is no big halftime show, and because the outcome doesn't really matter since they have to win 4 games and expecting someone to go to multiple parties a week is unrealistic.

Availability by itself doesn't make you good but it's a mandatory prerequisite for accomplishing anything. You can have the gaudiest PPG or per minute numbers of anybody but in every game you don't play you contribute nothing.

Availability is the most important criteria because UNavailability negates everything else. A great scorer who doesn't play scores zero points. A great defender who doesn't play has zero defensive impact. Stop acting like you don't understand this.

It's hard to say if Adelman's actually dogshit or not. Considering Jokic missed extended time for the first time ever and Gordon and Brown were both perpetually in and out they actually did pretty well in the regular season.

That Wolves series was a disgrace, of course, but I don't know how much you blame him for that. There's no plan B as far as Jokic goes, Valanciunas is just there to hopefully kill a couple minutes per game, so if Jokic struggles there's really nothing for it except hoping someone else comes through and Murray shit all over himself and Gordon pussed out so there was no one else. I think you could justify benching Murray for the 4th quarter of game 6 but that's a blatant vote of no confidence and it probably causes long-term issues. Unless you're sure Murray's going to be gone next year probably not worth the drama.

No, it's not. Availability is the single most important thing but not sufficient in and of itself. Those are not contradictory statements.

Just because the engine is the most important part of of a car doesn't mean you don't need tires, but the fact that you need tires doesn't mean the engine isn't important any more.

I repeat: how many points, rebounds, assists, steals, etc. does a player who plays zero minutes produce? The number is the same in every case. Think real hard. I'm sure you can figure it out.

because in most teams, they're here to serve the franchise player and make sure he gets shots and enough place to play the iso that will provide him shots
best way to ensure said franchise players gets his shots is to clear the way for him by standing in the corners and to not move (which could drag your defender with you, potentially in the path of the franchise player who's about to iso)
