Lol jrue passed up a chance to score inside to chuck another 3 smh. Big diff if you have shot blockers inside. We need KP against this guys and the Cavs.

Well, these two teams are showing they can hang out with each other.

My money is on the C's in a 7-game series.

Oklahoma City is shooting 55 percent from the field. You’re not beating anyone if you can’t defend.

We made history, yaaaayyy! Ugh

Do they have anyone that can slow Alexander?

Just remember okc and the cavs have home court against us. Whistles would even be worse on the road

Last playoffs because of opponent injuries we had a huuuuge talent advantage … in a fair fight, with relatively equal health, I don’t know if we have the creativity in the coaching, so that’s our disadvantage IMO…

Turning down open shots at the rim to shoot three pointers is innumerate

Can the guys hit another gear on defense in the second half?

We haven't even seen them yet with all their big guns healthy. This just feels like a bad matchup for us.

They can beat Cleveland on the road but this team hasn’t showned you any consistency all year. Tonight for example they can’t defend this team.

Our d was better at the second half of the Q, except for a couple offensive rebounds, 2 techs, and the tosser by SGA.

Five points from Brown and Holiday aren't going to win many games in the playoffs...

NYCelticsfan136 · Post #195 » by **NYCelticsfan136** » Thu Mar 13, 2025 12:47 am

Brown a no show. Meanwhile their two stars are showing up. Meaning Oklahoma city.

bucknersrevenge · Post #196 » by **bucknersrevenge** » Thu Mar 13, 2025 12:47 am

I go back and forth on whether or not Queta would be good in a game like this. We could get shredded in the PnR but he could definitely help us on the boards.

NYCelticsfan136 · Post #197 » by **NYCelticsfan136** » Thu Mar 13, 2025 12:48 am

36 shots are from 3. lol.

bigfoot_cryptozoology · Post #198 » by **bigfoot_cryptozoology** » Thu Mar 13, 2025 12:48 am

Why doesn't Ernie Boch buy the team?

itrsteve · Post #199 » by **itrsteve** » Thu Mar 13, 2025 12:48 am

We’ve known OKC is scary but since the face offs are few and far between it’s tough. C’s are playing well overall, they’re just a real tough assignment.

Crazy part is that they can build an expansion team on draft picks too. It’s an Ainge wet dream.

This has to be one of those games where Tatum needs to prove he belongs in the conversations he believes he should. The people are watching.

NYCelticsfan136 · Post #200 » by **NYCelticsfan136** » Thu Mar 13, 2025 12:48 am

This team needs to hit 2s . Enough with the 3 point shooting. Do they have anyone that can post up?
