    • @davidv6588
      @davidv6588 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      What are you talking about?😂 The two teams are evenly matched, with a slight edge going to Boston because of their sizes. Boston has played Golden State well since Kerr became coach. They are they only team with a winng record vs GS in that time. 9-5 or 9-4, including absolutely embarrassing them in Golden State just two months again.
      I don't know if you are a casual and think this is still the Durant Warriors or if you just don't know what an upset is. But this would in no way be a big upset. This series is going 6 or seven games and the winner is basically a coin flip.

    Damm...I don't watch much Basketball.. I watch enough to know who's playing who and who's a good team and who's not, but I don't watch Basketball.. I'm an NFL Guy, but I can relate to this man and I like GS but watching things like this just makes you want to be a fan of anyone that made it out of poverty.. It's so important that people understand that we're all striving for the same thing. I understand this man's hardships... May the best team win..

    He’s just soo humble. Them ruff times seeing his mom struggle, he definitely took it personally. He’s not in drama, he doesn’t go out clubbing, you never see him all over social media over stupidity. He’s making sure his mom doesn’t have to worry about a dime in her life. That woman is enjoying her retirement spending time with her son & grandbaby duece. Hard not to like Tatum as a laker fan.
