I think Kyrie inched him out tonight.


Inched out Smart? After Kyrie, Tatum and Brown were both exceptional.

Kyrie Irving, Kyrie Irving, Kyrie
The wind blows hard against this mountain side, across the sea into my soul
It reaches into where I cannot hide, setting my feet upon the road
My heart is old, it holds my memories, my body burns a gemlike flame
Somewhere between the soul and soft machine, is where I find myself again
Kyrie Irving , down the road that I must travel
Kyrie Irving, through the darkness of the night
Kyrie Irving, where I'm going will you follow
Kyrie Irving, on a highway in the light
When I was young I thought of growing old, of what my life would mean to me
Would I have followed down my chosen road, or only wished what I could be
Kyrie Irving, down the road that I must travel
Kyrie Irving, through the darkness of the night
Kyrie Irving, where I'm going will you follow
Kyrie Irving, on a highway in the light

I can see why Brad has been downplaying the wins. The team needs to play a more disciplined game and stop depending on 4th quarter heroics to bail them out. It's a bad habit that is gonna come back to bite them. Particularly if they insist on doing it every game.

Of course in the end a win is a win. And it feels good doing a lot of it.

VC for Kyrie being Kyrie.

We were losing until the 4th largely due to smart bricking all game long, when our filthy Marcus Smart-led defense strangled them to death while Kyrie hit some big buckets like an assassin.

That's been pretty much every game all year.

Kyrie smokes it.


Fixed. :)

The only problem is the Celtics would not have been in that situation if it wasn't for Marcus Smart and Terry Rozier being garbage in the first 3 quarters of the game. :lol:

The streak lives on, but that one was too close for comfort

Fun fact. Smart's shooting line and Dallas's record are identical.

For the love of god please Smart, Rozier, Nader, Semi, Larkin, and Morris stop giving me a heart attack and play simple basketball instead of chucking in the 2nd quarter. This streak is getting me worked up lol, it's like a playoff game where I don't want to lose at all cost.

You deserve a quote for this, because if Marcus was hitting his career rate everyone would be praising him. The fact is, is that he isn't but he is still bringing the best defense he can and he is a massive positive to us winning.

The only way he gets out of this drought is to let him play and keep him going, I don't care what anyone says he is a winner and you need players like him that do all the little things to help a team win, e.g. Iggy for GSW.

That game should never have been close after the start we got. The 2nd unit was pitiful.

I think Kyrie was offended by the "Al Horford is the team's MVP" talk lol. Wow. That was insane. Super efficient.
