Luka at this stage of his career is Euro James Harden. MVP candidate, terrific player, but is never gonna win a damn thing playing the style he does

Another win on the 2nd night of a back to back.

KP didn't even play.

Next game versus the Heat will be interesting.

So the 2020-2021 Season never happened ah Zoya?

He hasn't won since stomping on the Celtics logo.

Meant to say the season after that series. 9-0 now, incl. playoffs.

JB lowkey is funny sometimes.

The joke about Luka "credit to him for playing some sort of defense" and then joking about how Dallas put the crossover on the jumbotron haha

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Brown was stunned that the play was shown again when asked about it after the game.

“I didn’t notice that,” Brown admitted. “That’s crazy. Somebody needs to get fired if they did that.”

To his credit, Doncic was a good sport about the sequence, crediting Brown for the execution after the loss.

“I can’t lie — that was really nice,” Doncic told reporters. “I was on the floor praying he didn’t make it, but he made it. I tried to do my best. So it’s a whole highlight.”

Tatum at center last night was -7 in 3 mins. Was not sure why Joe tried it, in the 4th Q, no less. It could be for future use. Thought for a second Horford got injured.

Possibly unrelated to the Celtics but I ALWAYS root for the bull to gore the **** out of the bullfighter.

What a horrible thing to still exist in the world.

Grant saying he forced himself out of Boston had me dying laughing and poor Dallas fans ate it up

Their expectations for him were WAYYYY too high, but that's also the team's fault for selling him like that. But we've reached the point with Grant that he might not even make it past the deadline with Dallas

Well if Luka asks for a trade this summer, we could be saving them Mavs from Grant's contract, as a straight Jaylen + picks --- Luka + Grant trade will work. We will see.

When Grant was hugging Tatum, word is he whispered “rescue me” in his ear.

Watching Grant's shot last night was painful. I knew the shot wasn't going in the basket the moment he let it go. His mechanics are all screwed up in my opinion.

Tatum destroying Grant at the end of H1 has gotten some attention. But I just now realized that Grant had just shoved both White and Tatum in succession.

Grant was shoving and grabbing our guys all night. I don't know what his beef is. Brad and Joe didn't want him back, not Tatum, White and Jaylen.
