Jason Tatum became the hero of the 4th quarter to steal one on the road, and extend the series to a Game 7 on their home.
After being miserable in the first 3 quarters scoring only 1 point, he scored 18 points in the 4th quarter, and he scored 13 in the 14-1 run in the final minutes of the game to win on the road 95-86.

The Celtics lead most of the game with the highest lead of 16 in the 2nd quarter, but the Sixers cut it in the 3rd quarter, and got the lead in the 3rd, and 4th. It was a see-saw battle until Tatum's threes. Points on the Celtics has been spread, and it's unusual to see a low scoring game like this coming from the Celtics who is one of the top in terms of three-point attempts. Anyway, they forced a Game 7 on their home. It's a do-or- die for both teams. Sixer fans out there are frustrated and disappointed on what they saw. Harden, Embiid, and Maxey played more than 40 minutes, but it wasn't enough for them to close the series.

You are right, Tatum's performance in the last quarter was special.
Though, his performance in the first 3 was far from that.

Anyway, this series is really good going back and forth. I thought after losing yet another game at home this would be it for Boston but I was very wrong. Bringing the series back to Boston for game 7 is great for the fans, but bad for Philly. This was their chance. I don't see Boston giving up another home loss in this one.

But since they got them MVP we never know what to expect. Maybe they can pull off another upset. I would prefer Boston though, personally not a Fan of Embiid and Harden.

Tatum was able to salvage his reputation in that game. Although he didn't score well throughout, he displayed his MVP form when it mattered the most, leading the team to a significant win in the fourth quarter. The series will now head to a game 7, but we cannot be certain about the Celtics' chances of winning, as the 76ers are a formidable team and have already secured two victories on the road.

Yeah, the tie is heading back to Boston for a win or burst game 7, Maxey and Harden had some huge steals in the 3rd Quarter and I felt it could be all over because the body language of the entire Boston Celtics team seemed they've conceded defeat even despite being a point up at that time, and they couldn't get any basket to fall for them, it was something else from Tatum almost 1/3 into the final quarter, It's was as though Jayson Tatum said to him himself, if he'd go down then it would be on his feet, and that right is what differentiate great from good!

Looking forward to an amazing series decider in Boston on Sunday!

Good, at least the Celtics return the favor and steal one, this is a hall mark of a good series battle, the Boston Celtics adjusted or just really their backs is against the wall and so their superstars carry them in a game 7 decider.

Now they will be the favorites, and it's time for Embiid to come back with a good game. Don't want to see him cry against like the last time they've lost to the Raptors on that Kahwi shot on the corner.

If ever that AD wont be able to make it then Bron would really be needing to carry up again but i would say that it would be definitely be that hard for him to have that multiple roles or position but well this isnt the first time we've seen on doing this stuff specially if there would really be needing to patch up just because one of starting players are really having that injury but since its not that serious then it would be not
something to worry specially of Lakers fans out there. I do see that this might be closed up on Game 6 but well as long this series isnt over then we cant really tell on who would really
be taking the spot.

LeBron alone cannot carry his team; he is not the young LeBron anymore, as we remember. The Lakers need AD to win because he poses a threat inside, both offensively and defensively. Without him, the Warriors may continue to exploit the paint, and their strong 3-point shooting could give them an advantage, even on the road.

Davis has faced criticism for being a soft player, but that's just the reality. The Lakers are aware that this could happen to AD, and they simply have to deal with it. Besides, they are already leading the series.

Just mentioned that on another thread game 6 will be dependent on whether he plays or not.  Dude can't be guarded when he is on.  With him fully able to play I can't see golden state winning unless steph or klay come up with one of those 50/60 piint games.  Theirs 3s are gonna have to hit at a high rate.  Bron is going to be ultra motivated.

The "big 3" of NY was impressive though, especially Brunson obviously.

Yes, Brunson performed well as the Knicks were able to beat the Heat thanks to his 38 points. However, it's also worth noting that Brunson was on the court for 48 minutes. In other words, Thibodeau didn't let him rest during the game at all, and it seems to me that it's not a good coach's strategy because it's a big stress for Brunson's body, and he might not have enough time to recover before the next game.

The Warriors won by 15 points. That was awesome, and now the series is 3-2. They will still be on the edge in every game, but they have a chance to win the series, especially if they win on the road, which is difficult.

Green and Wiggins made great contributions, but Thompson hasn't found his rhythm yet after having a great Game 2 performance.

The top performers for the Warriors were:

Curry: 27 points
Wiggins: 25 points
Green: 20 points

If Anthony Davis fails to play in the next game, the series will be 3-3. We all know that AD is perhaps the most important player for this team. He contributes to the team in every way and is the most critical player of the team. LeBron is a great superstar, but without AD, his influence will be greatly diminished.
Compared to other matches, we can say that GSW played very well. Wiggins and Curry can do pretty well together.
I hope Anthony Davis can play in the next game Smiley
Lebron is having a hard time doing what he wants due to age and injury. He kept his team in the game this morning because he shot well, but it seems hard to repeat. If Davis plays, it will still take effect, but now he's tired and this fatigue will increase as the series progresses. On the other hand, curry is very tired, he started the match with signs of fatigue at the beginning of this match, this fatigue affects his shot a lot. has found ways to craft from the inside, especially if he produces a steady production at midrange he can completely paralyze the lakers' defenses. I don't think this series is over. If the Lakers don't have a good day on either side of the court, the series goes to Game 7.

I think it's more of Lebron being the facilitator now, I think if he wanted to take over the game, he can still do it. Just like when he is chasing Jabbar's record, he has games wherein he went crazy and score more.

Now it seems that the pressure is on their side, AD with concussions and reports floating that he might not play next game. So the Lakers are now in a difficult situation and for sure the Warriors are going to take advantage if ever AD is not around in game 6. As fans we wanted to see this series extend to a game 7 to make it more exciting.

AD being injured is the whole story, there is nothing else to talk about. If AD comes back and it is not a big deal then we can see them get a win again and finish this 4-2 easily, if not at worst case 4-3, because we can clearly see that Lakers is the better team and if AD doesn't return and Lebron has to cary, he could go berzerk and do like 40-15-10 type of thing which he has done before against Warriors and even though he is older, his mind is sharper than ever and he gets to see what they will do before they do it and he can definitely attack the weaknesses as well.

He has been doing that a bit, but not a lot, because AD can solve the riddle easily so far, but if AD is missing things may end up changing a lot, things will be very equal by that point.

Based on stats, Warriors has a slim chance to come back from a 1-3 deficit, so their back is against the wall. But if AD is going to sit the next game, it might be a different story though. Obviously, it might shift to the Warriors momentum as they will be favored. Because AD is providing good numbers for the Lakers and he is the 1st option for their offense.

So we will see if AD can play or if they he is willing to sacrifice himself in order to win and not have this game to go a decider game 7 at Chase center. His career might be in the line here though.

Yes, and it might be scary because we might see Game 6 Klay at Crypto.com? And I think it's the contribution of Green who really covered what the Warriors is missing on Thompson right now. Although there are reports that AD might not play in Game 6 because of concussions, but I think he will though, he just need to take a rest.

Now the Warriors won on a must win at home, can they do a must win in the road or as the predictions of 6 games for the Lakers will happen next game? Lakers now, opening at -1.5 at home as favorite.

This is really tough for the bettors as Davis might be resting or in a questionable status, if you are aiming for Lakers here, that odd
is something that you might need to re-evaluate as the chance for Davis' absence might give the Warriors a decent chance of winning the game.

If Warriors will duplicate their defense and if after this bad night for Klay, he will bounce back and add that long range threat for the Warriors.

Let's wait for the update or maybe it's good to bet during the live events and enjoy watching the game.

To bad for Lakers if Davis is out on next game since for sure Warriors can dominate them if he is out of the picture. But knowing how competitive they are since they are been hype with their current rooster maybe they will find ways to insert Davis in the rotation but in minimal minutes since for sure they are rotting to win. They know how competitive the warriors are and they will not let this series stretch until game 7 since they might be in huge trouble if Warriors win on game 6.

The Lakers will struggle so much if Anthony Davis cannot play next game and then LeBron James will be forced to replace his position as the center which means he need to leave his current position where he can chase down anybody and do where he excel the most. But I don't think that AD cannot play because of what happened and he certainly know that the team needed him this time more than ever, they don't want in the position where the Warriors have the advantage. This is now or never for them.
Fear or worry not because AD would definitely be playing on Game 6.
Did make out some search about its injury update.

Warriors did show up some spectacular performance tonight and trying out to be able to push into game 6. I thought it would really be closed up on
Game 5 but it seems they do still able to give a fight and might even pushing up to 7 if ever they would really be showing off on the same performance on what they had
done on 5 but of course LAL would really be making some adjustments again.

It would really be that too risky for them if ever AD wont really be able to play on 6 but it seems its been cleared out about those doubts though.

I thought that's gonna be the last game for the Warriors until Curry closes in the 2nd quarter with a buzzer beater for the 11 point lead.

Dub nation is still alive but then the game 6 will be played on Crypto.com arena. While on this game 5, we saw how helpful the crowd cheering for the Warriors.

We will then see the opposite of it but then that's not gonna guarantee the end of this series.

The Warriors win most of the time at home, so it's not surprising that they won at home. Additionally, the departure of Davis helps the Warriors maintain their momentum, as the Lakers are only playing small ball later in the 4th quarter.

Regarding the update on Davis, he seems to be okay.


https://www.si.com/fannation/nba/fastbreak/injuries/breaking-anthony-davis-injury-status-in-lakers-warriors-game-5
That's good to hear, he's okay and just confirmed it with some other sports news like CBS: Anthony Davis injury update: Lakers star expected to play Game 6 vs. Warriors after blow to head, per report

Everyone is more hyped for this upcoming game 6. As this is going to be crucial games for both teams. Lakers has the edge and advantage but if ever Warriors wins on this, Lakers can have its place of being eliminated on game 7.

Tonight we have the 76ers and the Nuggets trying to send the Suns and the Celtics fishing… I would’ve chosen the Celtics and Suns to win their series’ so this is a bit surprising to me. I’d hate to see the Durant experiment fall so short already. Now we see how Phoenix and Boston respond to having their backs against the wall.

I would actually say that this is not that surprising at all. After all these teams are very capable and qualified to take on their respective opponents. There is a good chance that the 76ers will win their game against the Celtics. I trust them. However, at this moment, I cannot trust the Nuggets at all. Honestly, I feel like the Phoenix Suns have a good chance of winning this game. However, all four teams are actually quite capable in their own right. As a result, it is hard to predict anything about them at this point.

Still a mystery who will win at Game 6 but I'm certain that Anthony Davis will not sit-up in the next game because they can't afford to lose the game as well because Game 7 will be played at Chase Center where the Warriors got the most chances. Other than that, Davis's injury is not that bad and coach Darvin Ham already said in the post-game conference that he's still good to go towards the next game, he just needed some rest for now.

Same situation with the Miami Heat, the team fought their way to clinch a play-in spot and who could've thought that with Butler's persistence and a little bit of help from the remaining roster, they are upsetting the favorites all the way up until now that they are going against the New York Knicks. Both play-in team in respective conference is still alive and have a 3-1 advantage over their opposing teams which are currently favorites. Now, that is really unexpected.

The Miami Heat is in the 8th seed creating a great performance against the 5th seed the New York Knicks if that isn't weird enough this season has provided us with definitely good entertainment the Warriors in the 6th seed upsetting the 3rd seed Kings, while the 7th seed Lakers upset the 2nd Seed Memphis Grizzlies, but maybe the Lakers on the 7th seed could upset the 6th seed Warriors that is what we are seeing right now,

These two teams that came from play-in tournament do really have a good chance in upsetting their respective opponents (#8 Heat beating the #5 Knicks and #7 Lakers beating the #6 Warriors) and currently they are still leading the series after the loss they've got last night. But just like their chances, the Knicks and Warriors does have a good chance as well to move-on towards the Conference Finals. The upcoming games will be much tougher and tighter as neither team is willing to give-up.
