We have 6 playable players with only Pritchard off the bench. I would honestly try Brissett for a short stint and see how he does.

Left right up down inside outside. I don't think the paces can stop us anywhere on the court.. Just take good shots..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

His next big step to MVP status is taking less moronic shots. I think that's the last thing he needs to work on.


He settles way too much. If he was a lights-out shooter, then taking those threes wouldn't be so bad.

Pacers are getting good shots now too though. Scoring at a high clip is imperative for the Celtics.

Al needs to chill with the threes, some of these aren’t open open shots that we want him taking. A lot of rushed semi contested shots

Al can't shoot this much. Let White take on more of a load.

False, IND wasn't going to continue a 0-5 FG trend all night. It's one of the last 4 standing NBA teams.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Starts with Drew Hanlen. He's ingrained that stepback three into JT's DNA.

"Turner walks into a 3" is right. He looked like MC Hammer.
