    Watched the game, and man Tyler Herro had his coming out party. The kid has that edge and is a fantastic piece to complement Jimmy, Dragon and Robinson.

    Celts small ball was exposed a little but they still had a chance to win.

    Man the Lakers got some home cooking from the refs in the 4th. Must’ve been the memo the league got from Vogel and James....

    Lakers are flopping, whining bitches. Got all the calls late.

    Still, who's boxout assignment was Rondo ffs?! No way that guy should have been able to get that rebound, in that period of the game.

    Massive 2nd half by the Celts and live for another game.

    Thought the two big fellas - Kanter and Theis were very important to how they played against the Miami zone. Well coached Brad Stevens. Tatum, Brown and Walker all very good.

    Lakers close it out with a monster triple double from LeBron, only the 3rd 30+/15+/10+ stat line in a close out game ever.

    Lakers look really good, and he looks on a mission!

    Just absurd that a bloke who is 3rd all-time in career minutes played, can simultaneously be the best player in the world right now.

    What a performance.

    He totally owned them in the 4th. Dagger after dagger

    He's bloody ageless. How often have we seen a sportsman - or sportswoman - as competitive at such an advanced stage of their career? Just happens to be two of them running around at the moment, both African-Americans and one of each sex. Phenomenal.

    He is a phenomenal athlete. And his prep is meticulous. Just dominated Denver yesterday.

    Who is the female? Can't be Serena

    She's still very good but can't overtake Margaret Court and looking less likely each GS

    Yes, but:

    "as competitive at such an advanced stage of their career?"

    was the comment and I would say is competitive still - just.

    No, won't catch Margaret court but LeBron is unlikely to get to 6 titles like MJ either.

    Fair enough. He is still the best player in the world in a team game though, which is extraordinary

    @canefan Yes it is, and had he been in different teams, at different times he might have ended up with 6 titles too. 4 Teams? Cavs, Heat, Cavs, Lakers - I think.

    I'm still guessing that Serena must be the female referenced though?

    Yes, Serena. Who turned 39 just a couple of days ago. Four grand slam finals appearances in 2018 and 2019 after winning her most recent title in 2017 at 35, recently a beaten semi-finalist at the US Open, and she won a WTA tourney as recently as Auckland in January. Prize money for 2020 is USD1m. She's still highly competitive, but not dominant. LeBron is still dominant, but he's 35.

    @shark If you're going with Serena, you've got to include Roger in the group as well.

    He's a month older than Serena and has won three Grand Slam titles since she last did!
