Patrick Mahomes is glued to the screen, just like you.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback took to social media on Monday because he couldn’t contain his emotions.
“Bro this game is crazy!!!!!” Mahomes tweeted.
A hashtag for the NBA Playoffs followed, while Mahomes’ message received more than 6,000 likes.
“Yes it is,” one fan replied.
“I KNOW RIGHT!!!” a second fan posted.
After a Play-In Tournament that was a bit dull, the playoffs caught fire on Monday.
The New York Knicks overcame the Philadelphia 76ers 104-101, thanks to a crazy final minute that featured a critical Philly turnover, multiple shots by New York and a huge 3-pointer by Donte DiVincenzo.
“Bro, Sixers flat out CHOKE, gave the game away,” a fan replied to Mahomes’ tweet.
Hours later, the Denver Nuggets pulled off a tremendous comeback, overcoming a 20-point deficit and winning on a brilliant dagger shot by Jamal Murray over Anthony Davis.
The Nuggets took a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference first-round series, while LeBron James and the Lakers are in big playoff trouble again.
“I just lost my balance and fell,” Murray said. “I think A.D. was in my way or somebody was in my way and I just heard everybody scream and that’s how I knew it went in.”
As Murray highlights took over social media, fans were still discussing their love for the NBA playoffs on Mahomes’ account.
“I love playoffs, d*** that was an ending,” a fan posted.
“What a finish!” a second fan said.
While the Lakers and Knicks enjoyed last-second thrillers, Joel Embiid was on the other side of sports.
The crazy, painful side.
“We’re going to win this series. We are going to win this,” the Philly big man said. “We know what we got to fix. We did a better job today, so we are going to fix it.
“We are the better team. We are going to keep fighting.”
