I think this was the first time the Beast Titan's name was mentioned in the anime. It happened similarly in the manga IIRC. Just a random name drop and then they moved along. But we will eventually see Zeke's background story, which is very interesting. Not sure if it will fit into this season though. Love that killer instinct from Mikasa I still don't but Bert being able to hang with her, but I suppose they did do a lot of training to become warriors...

Almost feels like that game last night was a dream. It happened Great defense from the Raptors, Kawhi was obviously amazing, Lowry and VanVleet played with really good energy, and Serge really stepped up. He hit some huge shots. This team still has been missing a lot of shots though, which is concerning.

I figured this was another Marvel fighting game... I guess I've never heard of this series before. Looks like some mindless 3D beat 'em up fun. I'd but it if/when the price is right.

Yeah, right now it's looking like Carolina's run is over. But I will hold out just a bit of hope that they can come back for a miracle game 7 win. Get Boston out of here!

Wow ???

Watching this 4th quarter is too stressful

I'm cheering for St Louis and Carolina, so naturally they are both losing. I really want Carolina to beat Boston because I don't trust either San Jose or St Louis to stop Boston from winning another Cup Probably not happening though.

That shouldn't be surprising. They're still pretty much a super-team even if they're short one of their starters. However we have seen the other guys underperform already in the playoffs, while Durant has been a top player throughout. KD carried them through a couple games where it seemed like they were getting next to nothing from Klay and Curry. The Splash Bros have had some pretty bad shooting games by their standards. But they probably don't have to worry that much missing KD if those guys return to form.

It was one good game. Have you seen how KD has played throughout these playoffs compared to Curry?

Really wish we weren't going to game 7, but at least they're playing it in Toronto.

Huh, just looking at game recaps now. I wonder if KD is going to miss the next game with the calf strain?

Good to see the Celtics out. Another bad shooting performance from Kyrie. Don't think he's going back to Boston

My fun Wild Card playoff dreams aren't coming true I have always liked the Blues though, so I don't mind that they advanced

Pretty suspenseful episode ending

Oh man that Raptor win felt good last night. So good. I'm feeling a lot less pessimistic now. They were due to start shooting better. They missed quite a few open 3's in previous games. Really nice to see Danny Green look more like himself. Please finish it in Philly, I don't want any chance of a game 7 upset in Toronto

Round out the party with Raphtalia and Filo and you got a super likeable cast of characters

I don't to jinx it, but the Celtics are a bit of a shitshow. I think some of those guys are already planning their summer vacation.

I found it amusing how the other three heroes seemed to assimilate into the world so easily meanwhile everything has to be a pain in the ass for Naofumi. And then the poor guy ends up being the only useful hero and saving everybody all the time, often not getting the credit. I like the grudgingly-a-hero kind of hero that Naofumi is.

Yup In some ways it's pretty trashy but I keep watching and enjoying anyhow.

Fucking Boston...

Erwin Next few episodes are gonna be nuts

If both of the Western conf series go 7 games, the two teams that advance are going to be pretty worn out with important games left to play. Lots of hard minutes for the starters in these series.

Meant to comment on this yesterday... it sucks for Durant because Curry has been pretty bad all playoffs and KD has carried the team. But even if most people still think of the Warriors as being Curry's team, I do think fans and analysts will be able to recognize that they've gotten where they have in these playoffs mainly due to KD's efforts. He's for sure their #1 scoring option and go-to guy in tough situations right now.

Yeah I think the driving force behind going to the Knicks we be so he could be without-a-doubt the #1 guy there (unless they get Kyrie with their other max slot and they're #1a and #1b ) It ties into the legacy thing. And if he could actually win a title in NY then that would add even more to his rep. But that organization is a mess so I hope he doesn't expect to win there Or maybe he just wants to live in New York for other reasons. It's not like basketball was LeBron's #1 reason for wanting to be in LA. Wouldn't top the AD trade powerplay that blew up in LA and Clutch's face, but this would be a pretty juicy story too

If his top priority is winning then I think he'd be nuts to consider leaving, but it seems like there are perhaps other things on his mind. Staying in Golden State has to give him the best odds of another championship, but he's already got a few championships to his name so maybe that's not so important to him anymore. I find it hard to believe all of the KD-to-NYK rumours, but the rumours keep hanging around and there are insiders that seem to think it's practically a done deal. Have to wait and see how the Finals play out first to see what happens.
