I know huh. Such an embarrassment.
Up by 30. Lost by 2.

Let's make sure that doesn't happen, ever again.

A bad day to be a Hawk.

Despite being late March, a statement response is required.

Last year's team will lose this game, a la the two back to back Magic losses.

This year's team will blow them out in a revenge game.

Let's see which one shows up.

I am already over the 30 point loss.. But what I am not over is the selection of iso ball to end the game yet again which includes slowing the ball down to a crawl..

I still have no Trust in this team in crunch time against a much more competitive team like in the playoffs.. Until they prove otherwise, This team deserves every bit of criticism And concern that us fans can give. For no other reason than history has stated so.
REAL SHOOTERS PLEASE!! I hate spell checking :D

It's a really high bar for this team -- Prove to us fans that you can win a title while playing regular season games. Nothing is gained really lol. Playoff games can't come soon enough. Ready or not.

Did the Fakers just clinch HCA in the ECF for us - or did we have it already?

I remain profoundly nauseated by our despicable performance yesterday - blowing a 30 point lead to a **** team & closing like garbage when it was tight. This has happened way way way too many times this season - in spite of a 57-15 record.

And Mazulla is ****. He is dumber than a rock.

I WANT TO WIN OUT THE LAST 10 GAMES - INCLUDING A COUPLE OF CLOSE GAMES & DEFINITELY INCLUDING THE THUNDER, KINGS, BUCKS & KNICKS. That will make me feel better.

HCA ECF CLINCHED

MAGIC NUMBERS FOR THE NBA FINALS:
Nuggets 5
Thunder 5
Wolves 4
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

I’m telling you Porzingis is the key to end game offense. Give him the ball at the free throw line. He’s taller than most players. He can easily get a shot off, and with that range, is almost automatic. If they double, he can easily pass it to the Jays, or a cutting Jrue or White. Just like what the nuggets does with Jokic. Its a whole lot better and more efficient, than the jays wasting time dribbling the ball, and chucking off a fade away or turn around jumper.

I don’t recall us doing that a single time in the 4th. Only time he got the ball was to shoot a deep 3 and then the time he got blocked trying to lay it up instead of dunking on the leak out on transition.

Celtics win by 40. There's no way they take their foot off the gas 2 games in a row to the same team in the same building.

I will be eating fried chicken during pre-game time to show dominance and intimidate these birds. Also I will be doing it because fried chicken is delicious, but they won't know that.

After our last embarrassing loss (against the Lakers) we went on an 11 game winning streak and won 20 of 22 so hopefully they bounce back in the same way.

Let the Hawks have a 31-point lead in the 1st qtr. then try to catch up and take the lead late in the 4th.

That's the perfect revenge game.

Return to Boston Celtics
