In no order:
1- Jrue needs to come back.
2- KP needs "bounce back".
3- better ball-player movement needs to happen.
Game 4 is HUGE. Don't want to come back to Boston tied up at 2-2

We haven't played a single game yet where one of our guys didn't get hurt in some kind of way. That is why that game 3 loss was massive. This is the last team you wanna have a long series with. Every game has "season over" potential playing these dirty scumbags.

Come out, set the tone, be the Celtics we all know you are! Rebound, limit the TOs.

Porizngis is the most overrated Celtic by the general media and C fans. Weak, flopper, low bball iq, poor passer, slow decision making… Everything you don’t want in a tough playoff series. Let’s just hope he starts making his shots so he is somewhat playable. His shooting splits this series are 28/0/67. Thank goodness for Al Horford. His defensive versatility make him invaluable even when his shot isn’t falling. Regardless of the outcome this playoff series, the C’s need to look for a well rounded big in the offseason and move off KP. His impact is overstated.

Physicality used to mean not calling touch fouls in the playoffs. Now it means just allowing fouls that affect the score and allowing cheap shots that alter the game, increase injuries, and introduce variance where teams with lesser talent can win games by knockout. It’s not basketball, imo
Imagine “physicality” in a pickup game. You’re jockeying for position under the boards and the guy you’re trying to box out grabs you by the waste, throws you to the floor, grabs the board, lays it in and flexes… lol, that’d be like a fist fight or straight brawl in any gym or court in America

I’m guessing one of the Celtics will throw a hard flagrant in the first quarter. Seems like it’s getting to the point that a fight is going to break out.

Pretty simple, take care of the ball. Celtics have their normal 11-12 turnovers they win easily. Don't turn the ball over and defensive rebound and the Celtics go back home up 3-1.

If Jrue is back it should be an easy win tomorrow. The offense had no flow except for the 2nd qtr yesterday.

They really need this guy to contribute. Last night was embarrassing for a guy close to 7’3.

Celtics had 21 turnovers and let up 15 offensive rebounds, that’s where Game 3 was lost by the Celtics

With Jrue potentially out again, we NEED KP to step up and do his job (or just not completely suck). So far, he has not proven to be a guy who steps up when you need him most so I have my doubts.
