Brown was awesome. Pay that man. Celtics are going to regret that second seed decision

We handled business and now we get some well needed rest. If we can get Ben back for games 3 and 4 against Boston that will be huge. Let Ben and Bruce play the same role.

My bookie had 10.5. Took that on my lunch break :banghead:

I don’t expect Curry to go scoreless in a 7 game series.


I'm actually worried about the absence of a third scorer... Patty has seemingly been cooked since Nash ran him into the ground and Curry just isn't anywhere close to 100%...

We need to do a better job of getting Seth open looks. There is no way we can win with him not being a factor.

We need to do better putting an offensive system on the floor so that we can stop primarily relying on KD n Ky going for 70 something pts.....

....why?

Bro you know our defense and coaching is bad. Nash didn't even TRY to take the ball out of Garland's hands.

I am probably going to bet against us versus Boston. Ime is going to coach circles around Nash.

Ime should be OUR coach. Not this clown

Too late for that.

Sean Marks needs to be fired.

Well, I guess Nets wanted Boston. It will be a tough series; I predict Nets in 7. Boston is a well coached team on both ends of the floor.

If we can get Ben back by Game 3:

Kyrie/Seth/Brown/KD/Dre
Dragic/Patty/Simmons/Claxton

It sucks that we don't have Joe

Didn't need to cook when the mid range game and the lob game was on point.

It's ironic that the head coach of our 1st round opponent, who happens to also turn around their season happens to be our former assistant coach. If the FO ever really cared about winning, Ime should've been promoted to HC and Nash getting the axe.

Honestly the defense was pretty good this game.

I think the offense was just garbage. Nobody could make 3s.

Brown kept taking dumb shots. Curry was useless. Kess was terrible.

We need to figure out something better in the playoffs.

This was a good practice run for the playoffs. Boston isn't gonna guard Bruce and they won't give Seth open shots. We need to find a way to consistently generate good shots.

We also need to keep trusting the role players. Edwards is a good shooter. Don't bury him just because he struggled today.
