What'd he do? I think he's reckless more than dirty.

He’s reckless. That’s ok though. He plays so damn hard. As a Celtics fan, love him to death.

His game is fine. It is the damn refs who got to do better .

Please do waste your time


I don't have to, since your team is filled with dirty elbows and uncalled offensive fouls, so :dontknow:

Great W by Boston. Eating crow now because i did not think they'd pull this out.

Celtics were idiots for letting Horford go. They probably play the Finals in the bubble and maybe even win it.

Wes Matthews was playing great D on Tatum for 2 and a half games. But Bud decided to use Hill instead during important stretches. Big mistake.

I understand people want to compete but when you’re out the play it’s just dangerous. See Brooks.


It wasn't dangerous..but it was an intentional cheap shot to the ribs
playoffs, man :)


Whatever you want to call it. Players hit in the air = unpredictable landing.

Dramatic game. But a 3-1 lead would have been very surprising against this Celtics team.

Also funny that we talk about Horford like he's 50. He's only 35.

also missed one badly down the stretch and the layup was a clear offensive foul

i'll hardly call that 'waking up'

They wouldn’t have been in the game anymore without Horford. He kept them in it. Otherwise Bucks would’ve blown it wide open
Oh agreed...I just question if Horford would've been able to keep it up late without one of Tatum/Brown. Thankfully for Boston, Tatum came on late to essentially finish the game.

Well he got paid way too much then looked terrible on the 76ers...In a way it worked out amazing that he got a year of rest in OKC. Now he looks like this.

It's not really fair that God was helping Al Horford.

Both Tatum and Giannis are often fouling and being fouled when driving.

The league protects its stars. giannis a bit more so (he deserves it).

That slight push is in mu mind a foul but a lot depends on how far you extend your arm and a lot of pros do it. He was called out earlier this game when it was blatant.

Well but Giannis receive a lot of physical contacts on defense without being called too because for him it's the only way to score dominating physically inside. If he gets space like that then is clearly an offensive foul too I'm not going to discuss it. One thing is make space for being more strong with your body your shoulders and things like that other is clearly elbowing pushing that guy in the chest with your arm to make space like Tatum does in those plays I mean more clearly is impossible.

Any chance Middleton could be back for a potential game 7?
