Tatum iso is just bad. Everyone just end up watching him

He was great this second half lol. That first half was as bad as I’ve seen him in the playoffs

[zoyathedestroya]

Can’t completely take the JT/JB iso your turn my turn out of our offense I guess.

[Riverwalk2021]

It's over for Indy if it's Hali's hamstring

[Celts17Pride]

Svi for 3!!!!!!!!

[Thatcelticguy]

SVi already more 3s than Hauser

[zoyathedestroya]

Horford with just 24 minutes. Hallelujah!

We’ll need him fresh against DAL/MIN.

[Fantaxp7]

So small ball is the answer. Turner didn't play much after we went to that and no Haliburton...I think we're all set from here on out.

[chrisab123]

Pacers are done in 4 if they don't have Haliburton

[PierceFan4ever]

Give JB another 100 mill to his contract

[NYCelticsfan136]

2 more games. Just keep that sharp focus.

[Triple7]

Tatum iso is just bad. Everyone just end up watching him

Yes, he was good in the 2nd half, but he just needs to be disciplined enough to not take those ugly 3’s, ball stopping isos, and ugly turn around fade aways.

[Riverwalk2021]

Horford with just 24 minutes. Hallelujah!

We’ll need him fresh against DAL/MIN.

Yes. Brissett is the key to finish this series quickly. Will the village idiot go back to Kornet though?

[Shak_Celts]

JB had 3 assists, 2 to white and 1 to Brissy. I dunno why it has 2.

[zoyathedestroya]

I agree with some who believe this is gonna be a blowout win. We're for sure shooting better from 3 this game. We got our 1-in-4 games of shooting 33% or worse from 3 out of the way in the last game. Watch it rain.



We'll slightly be better on D but significantly better on O.

Not the downpour from 3 I was expecting but still got the job done.

53/41/85 splits is pretty good.

[meatball sub]

no evidence to support this but i bet hali got hurt when jrue put him in the blender at the end of game 1. he looked gimpy right after that

[snowman]

Doris Burks hates the Celtics. Reddick is hatting on the Celts because he thinks it will help him get the Lakers job.

What do you base that one? She slobbers over Brown and Tatum. She compliments White and Jrue.

Selective hearing.

not at all. She only started the compliments after the Celts were up by 10+. Before that every break that she led into, was building up the Pacers.

[Bad-Thoma]

I hope the Celtics win this game, and do it in a soothing and satisfying way that gently meets everyone's expectations.

I predict we win by 15, Jaylen scores 40 but BK2020 finds a stat that says we were better without him, Stan takes the bait, Player-hater claims he knows more about basketball than Joe because he once bought a basketball on sale at Wal-Mart, and someone starts a thread claiming if we had a better coach we could have won by 16 instead.

Just bumping my own prediction so I can pat myself on the back (backside, where I pulled that prediction out of)

[zoyathedestroya]

Tatum and Horford, who take the 2nd and 3rd most 3s on the team, are a combined 29.1% from 3 on 12.2 attempts per game. At some point, the law of averages will swing in their favor.

Game after I posted this -- Tatum 5/10 from 3, Horford 7/12 from 3.

[zoyathedestroya]

Tatum and Horford got their shot back. Hauser is next.

This needed a sad trombone music background...
