Fat chance. This celtics squad has to play better basketball if they’re gonna make the finals at least.

BTW, that should have been a flagrant on Black....he followed through on Tatum's arm.

We've needed Holiday these past two games. His physicality is critical against this team. This series would be over tonight if he was playing.

I think we lost last game because I was too worried about the nfl draft and running my mouth about it. I was watching and chatting but I concentrating enough. I’m focused. I didn’t even eat all of my meal today because I was watching and focused!

Like I said, if you don't allow the Magic to get offensive rebounds, they will not generate enough points.

Magic still has not scored a 100 in this series.

Cs win rebounding battle 46-38, Cs win the game.

Gutsy win vs a good up and coming team. Brown Tatum Horford White Porzingis Hauser Pritchard all made contributions. Let’s close it out in 5. Can’t wait to shut up snarky Orlando fans.

But Tillman's been unplayable this year. Queta is physically a better match but makes mistakes that can be costly.

Just five minutes and let them set bone crushing picks and hacks few Magic players

Not the time to let these guys figure it out, at least in Tillman's case. He couldn't even get off the bench in games where our top 6 didn't play after playoff position was settled. Cause he sucks.

Good win, I think this series has awoken the true mamba in Tatum and hopefully he can use this experience to propel him to becoming the Finals MVP. If he believes that and locks in, then nobody will stop him.

lol if you thought OKC didn't have a chance then you've been hitting the green koolaid a little too hard.


I admit way too hard. The key to beat the Celtics is phisicality

For all the JB hate in this thread:

He had 21 points on 6/16 shooting with little to no help from the refs. And 11 rebounds but 4 turnovers.

For all the Banchero love in this thread:

He had 31 points on 12/32 shooting with Lebron- like love and respect from the refs. And 7 rebounds but 4 turnovers.

Didn’t see this JB junk while he won us game 2.
