Looks like a site glitch and nothing against you specifically.

Happening to me too and I'm a boy scout lol.

Jrue was best tonight.
I think Luka was gassed before the 3rd quarter was over. Maybe Kyrie will bring us a championship after all.

I wouldn't go that far lol. But since he's their coach and he has to back his guy, I will allow it.

Think people have been too hard on him, he's giving us EVERYTHING except shooting. How many of the other guys would be doing this if they couldn't hit the side of a barn? This guy has been brilliant instead of falling apart without scoring. I'm proud of his growth.

No one has been banned tonight to my knowledge. I actually got the same message a few times in a row about how I"m not allowed to read the Celtics forum but can look at the GB right now. It's a site error like Bad-Thoma said.

Even though Tatum is shooting horribly and missing easy buckets, he is doing a lot of the dirty work. Rebounds, defense, being very vocal on both ends. He's being a hell of a player regardless of points or shots. I maintain my opinion that he's playing a different role this Finals. He's being much more of a distributor and facilitator for his teammates. He's pushing attention, he's giving the extra pass, he's going for the rebounds, he's much more than mere stats can show.

I agree with this but knowing he's shooting like ass, why not abandon the contested jump shot and attack every time. That would be extremely impressive and put Dallas' defense under even more duress.

JB emerging as the leader of this team is amazing. And exactly when we need it.

He attacked a ton. That really wasn't a problem. He's going to need to take some outside shots.

One caveat... Mavs POA defense is poopy. Can't be compared to how Dubs play D.

He has to shoot sometimes to keep the d honest. They need to always be afraid that he could get hot. he's missing shots he makes.

D White had a few back breaking and momentum buckets in the forth, and of course the block.

It was good to win a close one. Dallas has been the best team in the clutch, and tonight they did get within five in the final minutes but that was it. The Celtics win in the clutch now.
