Great EOH execution despite Tony Brothers best efforts. Good situational basketball

Not that smart to figure out if we made defensive adjustments or just played harder but Pelicans only scored 20 pts in Q2. That's with Jones hitting corner threes.

Jrue and D White are just amazing and to have both, well it’s probably a major reason we’ll win over 60 games.

Great great finish to a half that I was going to curse out so much.. Playing catch up mode did not allow me.. There are items I would care to get into but instead I will just try to focus on Hoping Boston will finish this second half much stronger.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

If JT took his anger out on opposing players instead of the refs, he'd be unstoppable

By my count, just 6/20 for Pelicans in Q2. Just 3/9 in restricted area (8/10 in Q1). Good stuff from Cs.

We may need more Horford-KP pairings against these bigger longer West teams (and Bucks of course).

Some anger at last. Keep that during playoffs sans the bitching about the stupid refs. Punish them by ****** winning it all.
Jrue, White, JB, JT, KP. Brad’s Masterpiece.

Zion had 14 on 8 shots and that means Jaylen's defense on him was stellar. I don't get these announcers. Are they high? Is this their first time watching basketball?

I love the way Dan Hurley's Uconn team plays. I wonder if he would make a good NBA coach.

That's a great start to the half. Cs coming out with more energy that they did to begin the game.

Great start to the 3rd by the Cs.

Looks like the Cs are starting to get their mojo back.
