And who wanted this? Why do we want a...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Game two was a lot about the celts lack of effort on d.. but also their missed shots leading to easy transition buckets by Cleveland. If the celts hit their shots they also have time to set up on d. If Boston hits their shots it’s going to be hard for Cleveland to keep up as their half court...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    “The fact that this year's team has yet to differentiate itself from the past two... raises uncomfortable questions” EJ.. this is what I object to. I don’t think this is anywhere close to a ‘fact’. You can say the two losses sucked, but every team except the Knicks (edit: actually don’t know...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    I guess this is the narrative you’ll keep pounding into the ground.. if they had swept the heat would that have raised the bar?

    Green Zinger Tea - Kristaps Porziņģis 2023-24

    Yeah. To me it looks like he’s trying not to push off as much as possible.. and walking and shoot around are far cries from full on sprints and jumping using max effort.

    Right.. if you ignore the stats and just run with your own narrative I guess nothing else matters.

    Do players ever have to leave the lane anymore?

    He's basically the only guy who has showed up tonite and all you guys can do is complain about him.. it's getting f'in ridiculous.

    I really dislike Mitchell... just another flopper front runner.

    5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

    In case you can't see any other players.. DWhite is also 1-8 from three. Edit: Tatum also leads the team in rebounds and assists.. but I know that doesn't matter

    5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

    Yeah.. because they haven't needed any help down low or any kind of change of pace.
