I am so sick of those Miami Heat ! They were banged up missing Butler and Rozy but the Celtics are a far superior team . Spoelstra great coach though

Luka...how is it that, for a guy who is by no means fast...regardless of the defender...he always manages to get them behind him? He's not "outrunning" anyone, yet 9 times out of 10 it seems, when he gets the ball, the defender starts out between him and the basket, and whether he shoots it or not, after a couple dribbles and (not very fast) steps, he's between the defender and the basket? It's like a slow-mo blow-by, with a pause to give the guy a chance to run into him from behind....it's uncanny sometimes. I have never seen a guy that slow...get by defenders so easily...with a dad bod to boot...

He really is incredible then you have Kyrie who can go off too, then and OKC will be a good series

C’s vs Cavs tomorrow night.

C’s in 6 ?

C’s in 6 ?

I’m hoping for less than 6 , if it goes 6 or more not a good look for the Celtics even with no KP

[Jdrums#3]

Good point, Reef.

Why I am thinking 6 is I am figuring that the Cavs will have one lights out shooting game like the Heat did then, the C’s will sleep walk one game, like they tend to do occasionally.

Of course, both those things above could happen in one game so that the series goes 5.

Btw, what is up with Tatum? Seems his shooting has been off in the playoffs so far.

Yes not shooting well but he’s doing the other things well passing and rebounding .

Good call Jdrums#3

They sure sleep walked tonight
37-4 at home during the regular season

Celts Favored by 12.5 points at home

Disaster as Celts are now losing by 27 with 4 minutes to go

C's took a dump on the court tonight

Celtics got hit in the mouth tonight ! Another game 2 stinker !

Not to get picky, but a stinker could just be a fart...this was clearly a big dump

Hazmat crews are probs still on the scene

The Celtics team of the last few years does not seem to have the killer instinct. Too many great games in the playoffs followed by clunkers where players failed to deliver good efforts. It is why this team still has many championship doubters. Until they prove otherwise, they are not on the same level as many past Celtics teams.

Tatum is a great player, but Larry Legend never would've let that happen

[reef]

Yeah have to agree with you guys , another playoff failure here will be a huge huge letdown, championship or bust

[Jdrums#3]

I am happy the C’s won last night. But, I wasn’t thrilled with their play last night.

Hopefully, they played to the level of the competition last night because that wasn’t championship level basketball.

Horford was terrible last night now has missed his last 10 3s and constantly gave up hoops when he was switched on their perimeter guys

Let’s wrap this up tomorrow and get some rest !

[hrstrat57]

Cleveland had a lot of fight in them last night. Mitchell is special I didn’t give them much of a chance without him. They definitely stepped up as a group.

[reef]

Damn Joker is a freaking beast out there , let’s get them out of the playoffs!

[Jdrums#3]

The C’s should end this Cavs series tonight. I would like to see the C’s killer instinct come out tonight and bury the Cavs.

[NYGFan_Section208]

C's move on.

Haven't watched much (mostly because thy play when I'm asleep), but really like Holmgren and Luka as players, wish I could be watching some of that. Does either of those two have a shot vs Den/Min winner?
