April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

They have to try to keep the national audience engaged I guess. This is a boring game if you’re not a Celtics fan.
I say this in all seriousness. The Heat are actually playing quite well. Herro is being manhandled on both ends. Much more of that ahead of us in this series.
It's the playoffs I don't think Joe is doing that until there's like 2 minutes left in the 4th
This is...exactly how I dreamed this would unfold. These scrubs cannot hang with the Celtics.

Taste it. Savor the flavor, shitbags. You will get served this same meal every day of your short postseason.
To be fair 17 in today’s NBA isn’t that far behind. But yeah the ballwashing is annoying.
A 20 point lead can evaporate quickly in the current NBA. You all know this.
And also, Breen's job is to keep the audience engaged so of course he is going to say stuff like that.
Ok, but is it credit to any team who isn’t down 40? Lol Can we at least say 10?
I'm enjoying the producers periodically asking Doris to bring up a concern for BOS this offseason:
First half it was "Maybe the bench?"
Second half it is "clutch maybe?"
First half it was "Maybe the bench?"
Second half it is "clutch maybe?"
And they don’t play again until Wednesday, I think you’d wanna push them from a conditioning perspective
I wasn't arguing that. Just that if this lead shrinks - and it may well in the fourth - we will get a lot of anxiety posts by people who are already calling ballgame. We do this to ourselves all the time with NBA games and I wonder why.
25 points in the third quarter is not an insurmountable lead, especially against a disciplined team like the Heat. I don't expect a comeback but acting if this game is over is silly.
The Heat without Jimmy are hard pressed to score 25 in a quarter. They are not going to out score the Celts by 25 in a quarter.
Isn’t that just the rotation? Hauser will come in to start the 4th I would assume.
The defense was really bad tbh, yeah he hit some circus shots but they did not defend the perimeter well.
