Also doing it without food or water.

Insane.


You’d be surprised how much you can accomplish without food.

Being without WATER?!? No idea how he’s doing it.

The Nets have no wing depth. Edwards needs to play

What a terrific defensive sequence from Andre Drummond there.

As a celts fan, first half killed is with fouls.

But I thought the referring was really good. Scant foul.

Jalen Brown has such amazing bounce. He can explode off the ground even with very little gather.

Kyrie Irving doing what he does best on defense: getting completely lost on defense anytime a switch is forced.

Didn't the Nets have any way of keeping Jarrett Allen?

This is a 5 game series, 6 at best if Brooklyn is lucky.

Not if they wanted their precious super team.

Idiots.

Oh by the way Brooklyn, I hear Westbrook wants to play for y'all. Can you set up a four way trade that gets us Joe Harris? Thanks.

I suppose that also means the nets are playing all time defense too considering the Celtics have a lower FG% and they're tied?


Nets are playing good defense too, yes.

I'm confused. Are you NOT impressed by Boston's defense? All-time can be a little hyperbolic, but the gist was just that they looked really impressive on D. If you have this much of a problem with it you can write my manager a letter. Otherwise maybe we just go on with our day.


I spoke with your manager, she said the Celtics defense has mostly been hacking and holding and flopping.

We aren't impressed by letting a team score 60+ by halftime on elite percentages.


That manager was fired months ago. She only agreed with you because she's bitter. The new manager agrees Boston's D is fantastic and also says you have halitosis. I didn't ask for that last part, he just threw it in.

KD forgot how to dribble a basketball or is that the Boston defense? Lol
