Also, have Al Horford and Marcus Morris missed any 3 pointers? Morris is like all-world it seems at contested 3-point attempts and makes. That game should not have been close last night.

Read on Twitter

Was he benched or out injured? He hasn’t played well but odd to go from starter in game 1 to Frazier getting in over him in game 3

He had back spasms. Could be lingering.

AD doesn't want to guard Giannis, Embiid, Kawahi, Griffin, etc... He's going to stay out West, where it's safe.

Can we talk about how Giannis shooting 22 free throws and taking 10 seconds for each one completely destroyed the boston crowd?

I think that strategy backfired big time

I love that Gordon Hayward is "back." As in, back to midseason form. A complete liability on defense and only capable of making floaters on offense. The idea of running the offense through him is great for the Bucks.

The Celtics have a guy named John Karalis who is sort of Frank and Eric combined into one guy (blogger for last 13 years and now their Locked On podcast guy), He was the one in the postgame who asked Stevens about the team losing it in the third due to the officiating. I did a tweet about on it, and tagged him in the tweet. He was not pleased. .

"I'm not a blogger I'm a beat writer". Sensitive little twit lol

Reminds me of Lloyd Christmas “Its ok! Im a limo driver!”

Funny how the celtic fans beg for their coach to play Giannis 1 on 1 :lol:

they finally understand Giannis is unstoppable one way or another

In fairness to him, I tagged him. But after he replied, I did look up his bio. He created a Celtics blog called Red’s Army, where he wrote stuff for 13 years, then a few months ago, a small local paper/digital online news site (MassLive.com) hired him as a number two guy to write Celtics. Of course as I headed over the Mass Live sports section just now I see the headline “Brad Steven’s says it’s impossible to guard Antetokounmpo if he’s baking threes”.

Here’s his story https://www.masslive.com/celtics/2019/05/moving-past-fouls-more-horford-shots-and-10-things-we-learned-from-boston-celtics-vs-milwaukee-bucks.html

Point number one, C’s can’t let officials bad calls get to them.

Before they had to chase at the end I remember seeing that they had shot like 15 4Q FTs to our 5. And when Hill started destroying them he got called for 2 quick BS fouls.

Refs tried their best to keep those scrubs in the game.

He is a faking Greek-American and supports Celtics this is treason

I am playing and watching bball since 1981 ,i think this is the first time i see a fanbase complain so much for opponents fts and their fts (refs looked scoreboard and they give us free throws etc etc)

Putting a big and disciplined defender on him (Midds) has made him a total non-entity.

Does only playoff Middleton play defense? There's been a lack of complaining about Middleton's defense on this board lately.

Is this your trust on your team? Have faith, series ain't over.
If your team puts a lot of effort, it might avoid gentleman's sweep.
Α 2-4 defeat should make you proud. Two wins against Milwaukee is the definition of success for your team this year.

He was very good against Kawhi in Toronto.

AD not going to Boston, and AD and Kyrie is not enough anyway.

Our guards seem to be good at settling for long jump shots when a big is on them also...

I've noticed that as well. It's like whenever the defender sags even the slightest bit, they always opt to shoot.

Mids has been pretty solid on defense all season. I haven’t seen too many complaints on here about his effort on that side of the ball.
