This is what basically every Heat game would look like if the refs called everything.. pretty rare that so much of the contact is called.Nick Nurse’s entire presser tonight will be about the FT disparity
Most impressive, adding to the arsenal.Totally fine showing we can dominate without the 3. Liked the approach tonight
Playing with their food. I like it.The C's are playing with their food. Philly will stay with them as long as the C's are onboard with that plan.

He is…though I have fears he used racist language in furtherance of the anti-Cam Payne campaign.On the other hand, banned fan is a member of the anti-Cam Payne campaign.
He definitely said something uncool. Our party bylaws strictly forbid hate speechHe is…though I have fears he used racist language in furtherance of the anti-Cam Payne campaign.
I was just going to say the same thing. I know we refer to this team as a wagon a lot, but IMO that is the mark of a true wagon. The Celtics can beat you in so many different ways.Boston gets outscored by 27 points from three and win by 18
I feel like I remember them all having clear boxes to put there feet on, no?Ok, I didn't realize the host on the left of the TNT show has a little box for his feet because he's so much shorter and I can't unsee it
Yup, I just never noticed, and it's not his fault sitting with basketball players, but it just looks really funny. It being clear also makes it look like a kid sitting in a high chairI feel like I remember them all having clear boxes to put there feet on, no?
There have been a number of games this season where the game is close in the second quarter and then it just isn't. The C's have a way of clamping down when they need to..and it's also hard for other teams to keep up with them when their offense is rolling... you have to basically play perfect basketball to keep up most of the time.An odd game. The Celtics hit just five threes and Philadelphia hung around for a good while and then suddenly the Celtics were up by 16 with 4 minutes left.
Philadelphia just didn’t have the horses. Maxey was basically a one man show and it wasn’t nearly enough. It felt like Mo Bamba was on the floor for 30 minutes which is far more than he should play. Tobias Harris is overpaid and seemed to consistently under deliver. There was a 76ers fan a couple of seats down from me and every time Harris or Bamba touched the ball the poor guy went into a vituperative tirade.
Good win despite low energy for Boston for basically 3+ quarters. It is mid February though and it doesn’t feel right to complain about an 18 point win against a potential playoff opponent. On to Dallas.
edit - also fuck Kyle Lowry
Agreed, and I'm complete fine with the approach they take. No reason to go all out in the first half, plenty of basketball left. It's like they mess around until mid 3rd/early 4th, then just decide to put the game out of reach in a 5-7 minute span. Great way to play, mid winter games, don't wear yourself outThere have been a number of games this season where the game is close in the second quarter and then it just isn't.

I think other teams also just don't usually have the ability to play that hard for four quarters. With all of the lineups the C's run out there they can have two or three of the top guys resting while the other team has to run against the bench to keep up.Agreed, and I'm complete fine with the approach they take.

did anyone ever hear anything?Whatever he said will be on Twitter soon, and I have a feeling it will not be good and lead to THAT conversation again.
