He's the best player on the team and supposed to be one of the best players in the league. Yeah, he carries a burden.
Like it’s a mid-January game. This shit wouldn’t happen if Thibs were still in Boston.
Edit: Oh and now Tillman. Wtf tomorrow is an off day Joe.
Not this core at home in the playoffs. I want to believe, but seeing is believing in this situation.
I was kidding. It still depresses me that any team involving those two guys is winning
Honestly, it feels worse than a 12 point deficit. If they can somehow get their collective heads out of their asses, they can pull it off.
Well, we should be very well rested after taking an extended halftime. Kinda need to crush the 4th quarter now.
You can't contest any closer without actually blocking it. They had two aggressive switches. It was good D and a wild shot.
Everyone has acted as if winning this series is a foregone conclusion, easiest path to the finals in history and all that. Maybe the team feels the same, certainly don’t see much of a sense of urgency and a pretty lame crowd too
They are running the screens for threes that Miami ran for Herro, for Mitchell, and the Celtics are not playing them well.
You can stop getting outworked. That would probably be the best place to start. The effort in every facet defensively is lacking. You have to be able to win ugly when your offense isn't falling. You let them start to feel good, now they have no reason to feel any other way.
When Mitchell and Garland combine 8-11 threes, mostly contested, there isn’t a good chance to come away with a W. Make or Miss kinda night not going our way.
