Jesus didn’t value his final possessions either.

Celtics have home court throughout their remaining playoff run.

I dislike Grayson as much as the rest.. but two other players passed the ball and gave him no time to shoot... including Giannis
No doubt. I think Allen's mistake was not knowing how much time was on the clock. He got the ball with maybe two seconds on the clock. He had to shoot that right away.

Is this true? Seemed like Miami scared the shit out of most Celtics fans. Bill Simmons and Ken Tremendous had a podcast about it several weeks ago.
Yeah, strictly personally I was rooting hard for Atlanta in the play-in, was thrilled to see the Celtics got to avoid the Heat in the first round. Spo is that good, that's an edge they easily have over anyone else in the bracket.

That’s what ball movement and non-iso basketball looks like in the final seconds against NBA playoff defenders. Bye bye Bucks.

yeah.. C's fans here have been saying all playoffs that they're very happy Atlanta won the play in... Miami with just Jimmy is a big ask.. but Milwaukee was also a fraud 1 seed.

God dammit. I don't know who, but someone needs to get to the Celtics to quit dicking around and fucking decapitate the Hawks and get this shit over with tomorrow. There will have no-one to blame but themselves if they don't get back to the finals.

Not to sound like whiny Bucks fans, but let's not forget Giannis missed two+ games in that series - it's weird people are acting like it was a straight up match. And no, Tyler Herro is not equivalent to Giannis. Heat also lucked out in this scenario.

It was surprising to see Jrue Holiday look like a deer in headlights and it seemed no one on the Bucks wanted any part of winning the game at the end. Someone needed to step up and they didn't. It was a stark contrast to Butler shouldering his team with Lowry, Adebayo, and the corpse of Kevin Love all fouled out.

NBATV analyst is dead-on (somewhat paraphrasing): ‘Milwaukee won’t be having nightmares about Jimmy Butler. You have to be asleep to have a nightmare, and they’re not gonna sleep for three months’
