please look at my point totals and disregard that i got blocked repeatedly by a man who was previously thought capable of blocking shots only if he was rigged up to one of those harnesses they used in crouching tiger hidden dragon

He is much better at it than you'd think he was, by which I mean I have somehow seen him block multiple shots in the past.

i looked this up and it wasn't even the career high in blocks for him. he recorded 4 in a regular season game against memphis once

He's weirdly good at sneaking up on people from behind and swatting it while they're on the way up, I guess because who expects Kyle Korver to come swat their shot

C'mon guys, Korver is 6'7 and plays defense by getting in the way with his hands up in the air - he's gonna get some blocks here and there, shouldn't be that surprising

They shot fine in game four.

Cleveland just started playing actual D

Not good D but less wide open shots.

Life, friends, is boring
I appreciate the thread title, guys. Watched the Celtics-Cavs replay in 240p because I have dignity, too.

It's a rural area in Germany that does have (slow) broadband in theory, but the place I am staying at does not. And if it wasn't for the NBA playoffs,
I wouldn't even care. Go Pixel-Dubs!
