Just two evenly matched teams that are tied.

That’s what Tatum would have done if Theis wasn’t fouled out in game 1.

Attack inside. Don’t settle for jumpshots.

Celtics always grind it out in the 4th quarter and OT. Hope they win it.

Very common call

Read something on this the other day, not going to try to dig it up though.

There are certain game situations where the league tries to strike a balance of keeping the game moving instead of calling everything that technically should be a foul. That play where a ball is going out of bounds and the guy with position touches it last but has his hand slapped was specifically cited as an example of where the intentional choice is to not call the foul but just give the ball to the guy with position to keeps things moving.

Celtics are **** toast with this five point lead. Just too much.

Look at these soft Celtics roll over in the 4th quarter

Theis helps too much, leaving Bam open.

We did the same to the heat in game 1 tho.

I don't recall us beating them by 20 in a quarter.

True, we only beat them by 12 in the third. Bad memory

We beat them by 20 in a half. Got diarrhea in the 3rd quarter, and now took the lead back. Celtics are the better team and have NO reason to lose this game.

We have the lead. HAVE to keep it.

Miami doesn't quit.
