I try to remember there are 2 teams on the court and both of them want to win the game. So it's not completely Celtics-centric and it's possible to play well and still lose. I want to win of course but as much as anything I just want to see a good effort and smart play from the C's.

That said, going up 3-1 sounds like it would be really cool so let's do that. I'm definitely confident that the guys can get it done today.

GO C'S LET'S GET THIS WIN!!!

I didn't notice her for whatever reason last game but enough people have voiced their displeasure at her call that it was clearly something. Gonna try to pay attention to how she calls this one. Wonder if anyone said anything to her. I STILL think she is usually quiet positive in her praise of Boston in general but I guess she was in Embiid's pocket for the last game.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

All the ESPN analysts have picked 76ers. I feel even better about our chances now.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

CELTICS GODDAMIT!
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

She's just not my cup of tea on the call. Her delivery and speech annoys me. For example, calling everybody mister this, mister that. It's not a big deal, but her constant slobbering of Embiid combined with her delivery just gets on my nerves. She's probably a very nice person IRL,though, tbh.

She’s ok but she likes Embiid too much. She’d work better with a third person that lightens the mood a bit. She did a game once with Pasch and Bill Walton and it was electric, she’s just a little too dry but she is highly knowledgeable.

Doris knows Ball, but she shows her Bias towards certain players a little too much.

Pivotal Game. Could be 2-2, or 3-1.

As long as there is life, there is a potential; and as long as there is a potential, there will be a success! Get your hopes up, get your faith up, look up, and get ready to rise up. Setbacks and disappointments prepare you for greater success in life. Get ready to rise up out of the ashes. New levels are coming. LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
