No
Ok cuz who gets bbq at the mall…the folks prefer a tasty slice of Sbarro.
I enjoy a slice of trashy sbarros every now and then. It's terrible .but also kinda good.

do any of those exist outside a mall? Ive never seen a stand alone store.

the closest mall is something like 100 miles away so...haven't had a slice in a decade or more.

100 miles away?

Might as well be in the upper peninsula.

Last night there were two Jayhawks competing against each other on the court at the same time in an NBA Finals game. I have a terrible memory. When was the last time that happened?

If I am not mistaken, Dallas has outscored Boston in the Finals. 408-402

If I am not mistaken, Tim Hardaway Jr made a grand total of ONE 3 point shot in the last month before last night.
The only players in history with 5+ 3 pointers made in a single quarter in an NBA Finals game -
Steph Curry
Ray Allen
Tim Hardaway Jr

If I am not mistaken, the only 20 year old/s with multiple career double doubles in the NBA Finals are Magic Johnson and Dereck Lively Deuce.

If you had to miss a game this one was the right one to miss.
I blame myself.
But also glad I missed it.

I missed it too. Shocked by the score, but not by the loss.

Celtics know this is over. Just waiting to win it at home in game 5.

What if "you" is/are a Mavs fan?
Probably a pretty enjoyable one for them but I suppose they have to be thinking in the back of their head/s - well, that was nice but it did little more than prolong the inevitable.

I have some money on the series going at least six so if Boston doesn’t do it next game that’s ok too.

Just win the thing eventually please.

LeBron has done it for 2 decades, and passed the torch to luka
Jordan was bad, Kobe was awful, James has been awful the back half of his career. Harden is awful, Embiid is awful.

Luka is the worst I have ever seen.

I have successfully missed all 4 games of the NBA Finals so far.

Luka is really bad. I don't think he's worse than LeBron tho, I've seen LeBron do some fucking ridiculous shit, chasing after referees and getting in their faces yelling. There was a moment this season he was chasing the ref around after the game and security stepped between them

Luka did it to the point of losing an important playoff game. There's no worse than that outside of him punching a ref or some fans and getting suspended in the playoffs. Yeah, LeBron bitches to the refs to the point where it is annoying but Luka is on his own tier.

There's a level of it that is acceptable but I just hate watching him which is a shame because when he actually plays basketball he is uniquely skilled and amazing. If he cut out 80% of the BS whining to the refs I would enjoy watching him.

Celtics would be mindful to be as focused as possible and put everything they have into this game to stop any possible momentum.

I stand to make some money if they don't but i'd prefer the Celtics just close this out.

Lose tonight and it gets interesting.

I expect a Celtics win by 7+.

The Celtics have yet to match their regular season 3 PT % in these finals - they came close in game 1.
Surely one of these games they are going to do that.
