Epic choke by the Wiz. Surprised that Wall has been so quiet

Boston just red hot from 3 tonight. Wiz not playing much defense either.

I'm not, Celtics defense looks good when none of the opposing teams' role players can make a basket. It's just like how the Bulls atrocious play made Bradley look like a world beater.

I'm going to laugh when the Celtics win the series.

The East is trash other than Cleveland. Boston genuinely might be the 2nd best team.

114 points for Boston with 4 minutes still left in the game. They'll win every time if they score that much.

Pretty sad state of the EC when this Boston team is the #1 seed. I'm really disappointed in Washington today blowing that early lead so quickly and then disappearing in the 4th Q. The score should have worse the Celtics won that going away even though Wiz got some cheap late garbage. Cleveland is going to destroy whoever gets in their way all the way to the Finals.

Doris broke Isaiah down with that question about his sister. Antics and trash talk aside, it's good to see him able to be in douchy playoff mode for a couple hours a night and able to get away from the pain of losing his sister. It's the playoffs, guys are supposed to be nasty this time of year.

Avery Bradley looks like a star.

Last series he handily matched and surpassed Butler. 6'2" 180 guy shutting down our 6'7" 232 guy.

Boston was just on fire tonight. 19 threes, 50 percent shooting from 3, 123 points. Just one of those games.

They were but Washington let them get on a roll and once that train gets rolling momentum is hard to stop. When they let up and relaxed early after getting up 16-0, the game was over. I knew Boston would win as soon as they made it a game again. I think they were still down 9 and I said to myself. "no way is Washington winning this game". The crowd got behind the Celtics and it was over.

I really really really want the Jazz to beat the Clippers. I just cannot stand the Clippers.

Well, Bradley has good wing-span, and he's been shutting down tall SGs and SFs for years. That was his original selling point.

Butler just seems to lose his cool with small guards.

Same thing used to happen with Lebron (Jason Terry?).

IMO it's a mistake to play these heavy wings on quick and limber guards. We need a guard who can match-up with Bradley, Kemba, and Beal.

I know. I can't stand that team. So boring and predictable every year. Nobody wants to watch them get torched by GS again. Utah is a fun team. I'd like to see their defense against GS.

Want to see what a well coached, disciplined young NBA team looks like? Watch the Utah Jazz. Fun team to watch too.

johnnyvann840 · Post #758 » by **johnnyvann840** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 9:49 pm

Just as I say disciplined..... Favors fouls out of the game with 6 minutes left. :lol:

Post #759 » by **Payt10** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 9:49 pm

My god, the officiating has been horrendous in this Clippers game, but that's not exactly a surprise, given the team. They've been trying to give the Clippers ever shot at winning this. Gobert has 5 fouls and Favors just fouled out.

johnnyvann840 · Post #760 » by **johnnyvann840** » Sun Apr 30, 2017 9:50 pm

Jazz just have to hand on here. You know CP3 is going to make a run and try to take over.
