Great response from the whole Mavs team. Needed that big win. Luka and Kyrie didn't even shoot that good.

On to Game 5 in Boston...

The 2024 Boston Celtics are your NBA Champions!!

Absolutely great team! Tatum and Brown killed it this year!

Jaylen Brown is your 2024 NBA Finals Champion MVP!!!

Celtics are the favorite to win it all again next year. The Timberwolves and Nuggets are next with the same odds for a futures bet for the 2025 NBA Champion.

I thought Luka and Kyrie leadership and body language was AWFUL for an NBA Championship series. Luka defense is a MAJOR problem and his conditioning. Luka is one of the best scorers I've ever seen. I think Durant and Luka are 2 of the best scorers ever but both imo just don't have a winning mentality.

The best player in the 2024 NBA Draft is Alex Sarr imo. Sarr refused to workout for Atlanta and reports say that why the Hawks didn't take Sarr #1 overall. I think Sarr will win ROTY.

The next best fit and pick I think is Stephon Castle going to the San Antonio Spurs to play with Wembanyama and be coached by Popovich. I think Stephon Castle is going to absolutely kill it in the NBA.

Interesting to note how dominant French Basketball players have become in the NBA. With Wembanyama obviously and the 2024 1st round NBA Draft had 4 French Black players selected. ELITE players. Last year Wembanyama was the best player and this year Risacher and Sarr.

Round 2 of the NBA Draft results. Obviously Bronny James will get all of the media attention.



Also in NBA free agency shaking news Jimmy Butler doesn't plan to resign with the Miami Heat. Will be interesting to see where Butler goes.

Pelinka should be removed from his position if the next season is anything but a conference finals run.

Can't hire a coach with zero experience and then waste a pick on an undrafted level pick and NOT lose your job.

Not to mention the rumor of a 3 year extension to a 40 year old
