i have a bad feeling if we don't finish this in OT then we're gonna go on bad run starting with the refs boning us vs Indy

Now the Starters are definitely going to go over 40 mins.

AND, we play tomorrow, too.

Should've taken it straight to the basket and not relied on a pull up again. Whether you get blocked or not, there's a higher chance you get a foul called on a drive the way Ant just did the previous play.

The OOTO play would have been a Tatum last second ISO heave anyway.

Cause no one on this team has the balls to tell Tatum to not do his isolation garbage last minute. It should be Joe

Cs need games like this because this the type of game they will see in the playoffs.

The positive is the Cs fought back.

But the Cs just couldn't pull it off in regulation.

Guys who wanted Joe to save the timeout to advance the ball... are you kidding me??

We're gonna do same thing regardless.

He did have 14 points that quarter, I think he can get a bit of break.

I don't remember the last time Tatum hit a game-winning shot. Seems like 99% of the time he misses

Did the Celtics win in overtime this season? Somehow I don't recall them doing that once.
