Kerith Burke on the CSNBA postgame, says Klay spoke to Chinese media after the game and they gave him a hardhat and said, "you earned this, you were the Worker of the Game." and Klay was overjoyed.

Rules of the NBA Twitter Dark Web

1. ‘Choking’ is a thing
2. Marcus Smart is good.
2a. Kevin Durant is bad.
3. We root for our childhood teams, not ‘the league’
4. We do not google advanced stats
5. No NBA Reddit
6. Liking the NBA is NOT a poltical act that confers wokeness

7. Klay Thompson = 🌹

'Choking' is a fairly simple thing that does happen sometimes. It happens whenever a player who normally plays according to their muscle memory and immediate reactions, based upon thousands and thousands of hours of practice, scrimmages, and games, starts to introduce a hitch or glitch in their movements by attempting to think about the game at moments they should be flowing with it.

NBA level players almost never choke, except through inexperience (why rookies rarely get playoff minutes) or when they've lost big games too often and consequently want to win too much.

Free throws are notoriously moments when players can choke.

Stevens said pregame he expects the Cavs to continue to switch with Love out. So expect to see a lot of this early. https://t.co/jA7CEyu1Rl

If it feels like Terry Rozier has had an historic postseason taking care of the ball, it's because, well, he has.

Just heard a wild stat on @ESPNRadio. 78% of current NBA players had not made their debut the last time LeBron didn't make the NBA Finals.

garden crowd shd be pretty fn bonkers 2nite

tell u what im pretty stoked myself

it's too bad every game in this series has been awful but otoh game 7 lebron is classically good so maybe we will finally get a contest

hmm the games the celtics have won were good imo

they actually made a dece comeback in game 2 too it was just in the 1st half

Y'all Al Horford been in the ECF in three of the past four seasons... and was the best player active on each of those squads.

HOWEVER, this trivia doesn't settle whether he's a PF or C.

i think boston is going to win tonight

home court

no jinx but yeah feels right

tho "its just one game"

cav deserve tp lose for wearing the black unis

vegas has it at boston -2.5 fwiw. i kinda want to be contrarian and pick cleveland because lebron james but feels like boston

oh my god lebron destroyed that fan lol

i don’t think the cavs can win this game if lebron has to facilitate every single offensive possession

tatum cross pullup was nast

alfred looking to foul the cavs out

enjoying van gundy and jackson roasting brons D completely, well deserved, overdue

i hope the nance needs to play contingent is currently learning their lesson

nice shot of kieff in a jayhawks jersey

nice touch def taking it back to their roots

there's been like 3 times in this game were lebron has forced a drive into a brick wall and jumped up and it's looked like he's had nowhere to go but then he's just fired a perfect pass into the corner for a 3 where the shooter doesn't even have to move his hands like an inch to catch the ball

this is probqbly the ugliest game that has ever been played

uncomfortable game rn

this isn't as ugly as the west game 5 yet but it's getting there

jeff green lmao this is hysterical

i'd be angry but i can only hope this results in jeff green getting yet another contract for real money and not living up to it.

Detail look at Jayson Tatum's Kyrie 4s for Game 7.
