One game at a time. I am hoping cleveland comes back
tomorrow and ties the series.

KAT should have foul #4. These refs are hideous.
Handsome.

Same here. This team better not do anything stupid in the 3rd quarter. If they go cold go inside and make 2 pointers.

Start PP in the 3rd and put JT on Kat. Get this lead to 40. Now that’s a wrinkle.

I also hate that we are shooting three well, that will just go to show the players that it wasn’t that they were screwing up, It’s that they weren’t hitting the threes. That’s not the lesson I want them to learn.

Good assessment:

Yes, but I think overall our 3 point shot selection has been better. Although tatum has taken some difficult ones and made them.

The difference between this 20 point lead vs the other 2 is the Celtics are playing great ball today. Even the previous 2 games, I thought they were playing a C level game before they turned it into an F performance. The Celtics are playing their style of ball

Great first half. Now no need to do anything crazy. Remain steady and execute.

I hear all of you being reasonable and taking this game for its own entity, but that doesn’t loosen my sphincter.
