Sam and Jack are back after Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Boston Celtics and the Golden State Warriors. The Celtics are now down 3-2 heading into Game 5 and it was more of the same in Game 5. Turnovers, missed free throws, and sloppy offense. The guys discuss the low bar Boston has set for themselves and do some more ranting in regard to their consistently inconsistent play. Still, though, hope is not lost. Let us know your thoughts, and as always, thanks for listening to From the Rafters!

Sam and Jack are back after Game 4 of the NBA Finals, where the Boston Celtics fell to the Golden State Warriors, 107-97. It was a brutal finish to an otherwise solid game for the Celtics, as the Warriors stormed ahead in the fourth quarter. Despite Jaylen Brown's solid night, Jayson Tatum continued to struggles, and the Celtics' shooters went cold in the final moments of the game. Meanwhile, Stephen Curry balled out.

Sam and Jack are back after Game 2 of the NBA Finals, where the Boston Celtics got stomped by the Golden State Warriors. Boston fell into the old turnover trap and also let the officials get under their skin. They're leaving San Francisco tied 1-1, but Game 2 was an ugly one. Draymond Green got in their head and had his way with the Celtics (and the refs). Needless to say, the guys were not happy.

Later on, the guys break off from the C's to discuss a funny tidbit about Jayson Tatum and the Philadelphia 76ers, as well as Zion Williamson's injury news.
