Well, we saw this same script in Game 1.

Keep the pressure on and get the lead to 30+

Yeah, I've seen it too many times the last 5 years.

When fans start writing off Tat, he bounces back in a big way.

JB & DW have been AWESOME
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Credit to Kornet. We needed this from him with KP and Al struggling.

Softzingis not being a factor hurts this team badly. Especially the depth.

JB just too strong for almost all Knick defenders.

Maybe OG will have better luck guarding JB 1 on 1.

He's been solid on both ends. Moving really well.

JB and White show

Gotta assume Kat withers in the 2nd half and Brunson tries to play Mighty Mouse

Tatum can't get by anybody. Maybe get him on thy right block so he can do his baseline spin. He looks in quicksand.

What “illness” does Porzingis have exactly?

Like why even suit up if he’s going to be unplayable?

Luke picking up the slack.

So it evens out.

Are you not seeing the greatness of Luke in this game?

No more KP. Rather play Craig or Queta at this point.

KP will be ready when the Celtics are up 3-0 in the NBA Finals

Love what White, Jrue, JB have brought today. JT not hitting shots but controlling the board and playing smart. Luke big mins off the bench.

Respect for KP, clearly compromised but giving the team whatever he can muster. Could we see a touch of Queta minutes???

LETS GO

Return to Boston Celtics
