Dead & Co is touring in AZ and TX right now, so Walton is out.Fuck that. They should find every old Celt still alive from championship teams. Pierce,, KG, Cowens etc. That's DNA of this franchise, not Ortiz.

I am hoping the ankle is a real problem for Vincent. Hea got his 5 minutes, I’d be fine if he doesn’t play another game this season8:30 on a Thursday that crowd is going to be drunk and rowdy. If the Celtics come out hot that atmosphere is going to be wild. Fueled by 2004, 28-3, and Bud Light. I’d love to see how Gabe Vincent and Caleb Martin shoot as the pressure mounts.
To me the point I felt like we would definitely win was when Joe took the timeout and the Celtics came out and diced up the zone and made Spo drop it. The zone has been his spammed cheat code against us at times, and getting not just buckets, but ones out of the correct process was huge.Feel like the two plays of the game were the Jaylen steal and the White block.
It. All. Starts. With. Defense.
Is it just me or is Captain Intangibles aging badly? (And I’m not so spiritually evolved that I don’t take pleasure in this.)Seeing Jeter’s disappointed calm eyes at court side was really the cherry on top tonight.
Keep it going.
I mean I guess I see where he’s coming from. Just happy to not be swept so the effort isn’t there the next game. I guess we’ll see.Kenny Smith with a really galaxy brained take…apparently Game 5 is actually tougher than Game 4 because people will be congratulating them on not being swept and that will make them lose?
Yeah – and he brought Tatum in to be the guy to break it. That foul line shot kind of killed it.To me the point I felt like we would definitely win was when Joe took the timeout and the Celtics came out and diced up the zone and made Spo drop it.

If I squint you can kind of see it but the way he framed it was that because they are going home, the crowd will be congratulating them so much that they didn’t get swept that they will lose focus and lose the game.I mean I guess I see where he’s coming from.

I think Shaq picking the Heat sort of cancels Barkley out? Like opposing forces of massive stupidity equals 0?Uh oh – Chuck thinks this is coming back to Miami.
Yeah I don’t think Boston fans are going to give them participation trophy cheers for making it to Game 5. The Garden will be electric if they come out strong and vicious if they lay an egg.If I squint you can kind of see it but the way he framed it was that because they are going home, the crowd will be congratulating them so much that they didn’t get swept that they will lose focus and lose the game.
They may lose but it’s not going to be because the crowd cheered them on so much that it lulled them into a false sense of security
This is all such bullshit. Boston is 11-12 at home last year and this in the playoffs. Boston is cruising Games 5 and 7?Barkley: “You don’t get a cookie for not getting swept.”
Does say the Celtics will win Game 5 easily. And Game 6 will be Game 7 for Miami.
Bunch of Foos fans probably gonna be in the house too and probably the Foos themselves8:30 on a Thursday that crowd is going to be drunk and rowdy.

Would be so epic.Papi and Edelman at game 5.
saving Brady and a shocking return to Boston for Larry Bird for game 7. (“Fuck Pat Riley” said Larry about his decision to attend)
Will say before the game even ended all the gambling people said Celtics will be significant favorites in 5 and 7 with 6 as a tossup.This is all such bullshit. Boston is 11-12 at home last year and this in the playoffs. Boston is cruising Games 5 and 7?
I think what Charles is saying is that there would be so much pressure on the Heat and it would be in a hostile environment…. so they want to do all that they can to not get to that point.This is all such bullshit. Boston is 11-12 at home last year and this in the playoffs. Boston is cruising Games 5 and 7?
i can never complain about those guys. They are so far ahead of everyone elseWatching the TNT post game, which I usually like ok, but literally all 4 of them talked at once for at least a full minute.
great entertainment... terrible basketball analysis. Not a single person on there watches more games than the ones they cover and none of them are up on modern basketball.i can never complain about those guys. They are so far ahead of everyone else
yes tnt shouild get the finals every year as long as charles is therei can never complain about those guys. They are so far ahead of everyone else
Game 2 was really where the C's blew it. One more 3 somewhere in the game and the series is 2-2 right now.Our problem is we have zero margin of error.
On the plus side this is one of the misleading series scores in the history of sports.
Really does. Get Papi, Millar and Wake there Thursday.Gotta say, really loved Jeter and ARod there. Feels like a thing.
Heard TNT wanted to go to Jeter during the game for a comment, but didn’t trust that he had the arm to (jump) throw it back to Reggie.Gotta say, really loved Jeter and ARod there. Feels like a thing.
Denver going to have to come in cold vs a hot Celtics team.
I would say you save those guys for game 7.Fuck that. They should find every old Celt still alive from championship teams and honor them. Cousey, Pierce, KG, Cowens, Bird, Max etc. That's DNA of this franchise, not David Ortiz.
Of all the Mazzula complaints, many that I disagree with, this is my biggest one. The way he buried Grant in the regular season and early in these playoffs was terrible. Grant was important last year and most thought he would be needed this year. I think it is doubly bad that he gave so many of those minutes to Hauser and then buried him as well. The regular season should have been used to get the rotations ready for the playoffs.Grant Williams was great tonight. Really played well defensively and hit some big 3s. Say what you want about him but he brings a different type of energy off the bench that they really need. He is a fairly versatile defender, which is a very valuable asset this time of year. He should be first off the bench in game 5.
Bird has to be at Game 7 already.I would say you save those guys for game 7.
Kevin? Chief?Fuck that. They should find every old Celt still alive from championship teams and honor them. Cousey, Pierce, KG, Cowens, Bird, Max etc. That's DNA of this franchise, not David Ortiz.
