Don’t need to blow them out in the first half, just play good defense and take care of the ball.

Second half, let Tubby Luka get worn out, keep the pressure on, extend the lead and bring it home

Prediction: if the Cs build a decisive lead, Luka will hobble off the court followed by numerous planned media reports that his injuries are worse than anyone thought.

Maybe Mahomes gave him some tips.

What would you think of a playoff series format with a “first to win 4” or “3 game lead” elimination? If a team wins the first 3, the series is over.

No, I’m not asking because I’m worried about the Cs and they did almost come back last year…but when the odds of coming back across all professional sports are so minuscule, it would be interesting.

Didn't age well. I’ve had my share.

Inability to finish moderately difficult layups is killing them tonight.

 

[Ununcle]

pretty sure we suck tonight. It doesn't help their calling a foul on anyone breathing in the direction of the chub. But the team seems to be missing freakin layups.

They tightened up on us and we just completely abandoned our offense for iso ball. Keep trying to drive and kick or this game will fly away from us.

 

[RobertWeathers]

See ya in BOS

 

[Zuma]

Need rebounds and Pritchard can’t hit the side of a barn the past couple weeks.

Could be the worst half of basketball I have ever seen. How did this team win this season?

Really, dude?

If they can manage to cut it to 20 by half time it’s not over. But they can’t seem to figure it out.

Feels like the moment got to Boston and they choked under the pressure. Hopefully, home court alleviates that issue.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Luka mock laughing after picking up an obvious foul after getting every imaginable call and non-call the entire game.

Celtics still fighting…I’m not writing this off just yet.

Things just aren’t in rhythm for them tonight. It happens. I’d much rather they play this type of game and take an L than choke away a comfortable 4th quarter lead. They’ve made the crunch time plays this series. They will be okay.

 

[denverpatsfan]

Really! How many times have the Celtics only scored 30 points in a half?

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Why is Pritchard playing minutes alongside Holiday and White? He’s playing like garbage but beyond that this rotation makes no sense. They’re getting killed on the boards and in the paint.

Yea I know. Plenty of time left.

 

[The Brandon Five]

Officiating is, umm, interesting in this one.

 

[Kdo5]

Yah unless we have some 2008 Lakers game **** this one is going to Game 5.
