Boston Celtics NBA Finals Thread

[Kontradiction]

Well, the Lakers now have the lead... all due to the Celtics taking some borderline ******ed shots.

 

[ausbacker]

Oh Ray. Ray Ray Ray.

Surprise surprise nobody in the paint to rebound again.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Ray Allen is killing us...

 

[Kontradiction]

...and Kobe is now awake. If the Celtics lose this game, they will have done so by shooting themselves in the foot offensively.

And, IMO, I think it would be a mistake for the Celtics to bring Ray Allen back next year. Aside from Game 2, he has been just a little bit better than putrid.

i can't believe the lakers even have a shot this late, given how low the scoring is, and how the celts had the lead after 1 qtr (first 6 games were won by the team with the lead after the 1st qtr)


boston should win the game given that trend, someone needs to use some heart paddles on ray allen, that guy has sucked since his 3 pt record

 

[ausbacker]

No rebounding, no shooting, good luck to us in the last 5 minutes. Lakers get another ridiculous foul. Can't see us coming back now other than divine intervention.

If Rondo wants to be considered an elite guard in this league, now is the time. This offense is horrible.

 

[ausbacker]

What a collapse. Can't say the Celtics didn't give themselves the chance to close this out in the 3rd. What a missed opportunity. Those offensive rebounds have come back to kill the Celtics. Heartbreaking stuff to be honest.

2 mins to go but I just can't see how we can drag ourselves out of this predicament given the foul situation.

This game's over, boys. Chokin' dog performance in the 4th quarter.

I hope they come back to make me eat my words but I don't see how. This team has zero offensive identity.

I want to see this replay. Yep. That was a foul on Gasol. Another posession by the Lakers. I would really love to run out on the floor and punch Pau Gasol right in his face. Multiple times.

I've given up with the fouls. The officials are seeing what they want to see. Can't blame the Lakers. The Celtics should have closed this game out in the third. Instead we let them back in with stupid play, turnovers and an inability to rebound.

The Lakers hung around and hit when they got hot. The Celtics have nobody to blame but themselves.

 

[Kontradiction]

SHEED!!! Make me eat my words. One stop, Celts.

EDIT: Bound ****** time, Allen.

 

[ausbacker]

Why is that not a foul on the Lakers. Are you ******* kidding me. **** these ******* refs.

 

[Kontradiction]

Wallace's feet were set. That was NOT a blocking foul.

 

[Boston Boxer]

Bull**** call...these refs suck balls.

 

[DefenseRules]

chokin dogs.

K, they should have finished them off in game 6. That game seriously PISSED ME OFF!! They had them down, and they should have finished them off.

 

[Kontradiction]

The refs sucked, but I said at halftime that the Celtics couldn't let the Lakers stay in this and that they needed to pad a lead. It was only a matter of time before those offensive rebounds turned into points.

I deleted that because it wasn't really necessary. I was more or less just wanting to jump through the TV and slam Gasol's head off the court.

I agree. I was just hoping that for once you were wrong.

 

[Disco Volante]

Holy **** Rondo!

Still breathing...
