Daniels foul should have been two shots.
I'll take it though.

He did foul Horford before, but the only thing that matters is when did they blow the whistle? I thought they blew it when Paul tripped..that was right on the inbound. But tht was close though..Idk why Doc had Daniels in there anyways..

Oh who gives a ****

sometimes u get the calls, sometimes u dont, we have no control over it and either to our players
The only thing Celtics fans should talk about after this escape is Kevin freakin Garnett, saving our old beat up team from having to play a game 7 in ATL, dude was superhuman tonight

Would have been a soft ass foul to call with 3 seconds left. I disagree with there being a foul overall. We did get a favorable whistle overall, but not on that play, imo.

I wanted us to win big to get those haters and complainers off but I'd rather we get the benefit than the refs **** it on us, which we've seen countless times.

And on the in bounds it was and he missed the throws what is the point?

It looked almost like a double foul to me. Daniels was holding Horford but Horford had him in a headlock. They should have let the contact go, so the sideout wasn't much of a gift even if it technically should have been two free throws.
Even if they did give us the game, they absolutely raped us in game 1. Offsetting penalties.

Who cares? They got the free throws and missed one.

Did you miss the part where Horford missed 1 of 2 free throws with two seconds left. Lock this up.

Don't Hawks get 2 ft's and the ball if it is a dead ball foul, though?

The foul could have gone on Horford too.
Overall, the Celtics got 11 blocks and only committed 14 fouls. So it was pretty good luck with the whistles. So be it. Plenty of worse referee luck in other games.

Man Daniels, why did you have to foul? It just gave the Hawks fans and the rest of the haters a chance to say we won by the refs rigging. It's not like a single play decides the whole 6 game series...

We could win every game 112-36 with the opposing team shooting under 10 percent. With more missed free throws than our FT opportunities, and you know what? There's still going to be a group of kids, or poor sports who post on a message board that the Celtics cheated. This isn't limited to Boston, it can be LA, Miami, Chicago, whoever. You just have to ignore it, or laugh at it. I choose laughter when the posts are over the top ridiculous.

Dude really it wasn't Ray's greatest game but seriously how did Ray Allen almost cost us the game? He didn't shoot well but he grabbed 5 boards and had 1 TO there are some other guys who have some things to answer for as well.

It was a foul on Daniels but he got run over there wasn't much he could do about it. I will tell you this Al Horford can play for me anyday.

because the celtics need him to do more then that, the rebounds and turnovers are pointless, that was a horrible turnover also
but 1-7 shooting, and they were all 3 point shots, a few of them were WIDE open
ray needs to score because KG and PP always have to come through , ray needs to chip in
then he missed a ft at the end, leaving the possiblity for atlanta throwing up a 3 point shot and winning it
