Well doesn't help when Kemba can't hit the ocean either. Lot of pressure on Brown and Tatum. More than there should be. I mean Kemba missed 2 free throws for crying out loud. He needs to light it up in the 4th, but nothing I have seen so far tells me that is going to happen.

 

[ViperGTS]

Welp...Jaylen is hurt now...thats it for them now.

 

[ViperGTS]

Welp back on the floor. See how this goes.

Robert Williams is not afraid of the moment. He's been good. Tatum is producing. Marcus Smart making a dozen hustle plays. Brown started slow but has been efficient.

 

[ViperGTS]

Game is slipping away...better be careful

 

[captain insano]

the celtics are in full choke mode. brutal.

 

[DropKickFlutie]

Their achilles heel is no elite offensive attack. Not a great sign when with under 5 mins they play hot potato among Kemba, Tatum, Brown and end up multiple times with Marcus Smart taking a crappy last-second shot. Multiple times.

[captain insano]

wow we have somebody on the team who can make free throws. still isnt over. not with this team.

 

[ViperGTS]

Well holy hell they won. They need to clean some stuff up...man..

 

[captain insano]

they did everything they could to lose. they arent winning a title thats for sure.

I wouldn't say that just yet. Hayward looks close to a return and Miami isn't the defensive team Toronto is. I like that matchup much better than this one.

grant Williams showed up big down the stretch.....what a series

 

[DropKickFlutie]

I meant Robert. Solid D and rebounding. Then he got pulled. I know the announcer was praising Grant but Grant bricked 2 FTs and gave up like 6 straight points during crunch time. The entire Celtics team froze and almost choked this one away.

I like Brad a lot, he's a good offensive coach but he really needs these guys to establish a pecking order and stop being so ****ing soft.

The shots hit on Grant were completely smothered nothing you can do but tip your cap to the offensive player for hitting a tough one.

even if they beat the heat. they aren't beating the lakers or the clippers.

They match up well with both actually. I always thought this was gonna be their toughest test.

At the end of the day going seven games may have been helpful to the Celtics. Their ability to really overcome adversity in the playoffs remained in question. To come back from the miracle three and double OT games to advance makes them better. Can't have anymore of these disappearing acts from Kemba though.
