I made a post at some point in the 3rd where I praised Brown and Holiday but crapped on Hauser... too lazy to find it but stick by those picks.

thanks to tatum for making the dagger

Sucks to be in OT but these guys needed it.

JB smokes it of course. We literally lose the game if he doesn't hit that 3.

The 2nd cigar goes to Jrue who was excellent on both ends of the floor all game.

Good win!

Let's keep winning games and get KP and Tillman back soon.

Aside from Haliburton (who is actually quite easy to hate) got to give credit to the Pacers who put up hell of a fight. This is not going to be an easy series.

Need Porzingis back soon. We gave up too many offensive rebounds in regulation.

Jaylen Brown was absolutely amazing and earned his money and cigar tonight..

Maybe Jrue's best game as a Celt.

Going to enjoy the salt mine from bitter opposition fans too

I thought this Game was over in regulation, and that we lost it.

Overtime Win. Thank You.

Snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. It's okay to win those too.

JT for VC and JB for CP.

At least 40. Time to tighten the rotation. KP better be back by game 3.

A few not so good things:

-Bench was abysmal. Need KP back asap

-We can blame Joe or whoever is coaching all we want but at the end of the day, the Jays are playing in their 100+ playoff games, they need to be better in 4th quarters. Can’t score 10 points in 8 minutes and hope to win

- I think we see Tillman next game, Kornet is bbq chicken in this series

Offense down the stretch was very good. The need some adjustments defensively, but also that Pacers pull up shooting is not going to be sustainable.

We need Hauser in sniper mode next game.

Other than when he successfully works the refs, a coach only accomplishes things through his players.

Jrue had the biggest game, But Brown came up so Big late that I couldn't take it away from him..

Really? I find him super likable. I don't think there's anybody on the Pacers that deserves hate.

Wow didn't even realize Jrue had 28.

Jaylen hit the biggest shot of the game but Jrue was the best Celtic on the floor.

White was 9/1 in A/TO, and the rest of his stat line was decent.

Right & Wrong.

Haliburton seems like a decent Guy.
Nesmith, on the other hand, deserves contempt.

this isn't going to stop pacers from coming hard every game from here. everyone swore the heat would fold after that shot in g6. they wont fold! they lost a heartbreaker in similar fashion to nyks and they kept coming. stop banking on that and play your ass off!

this is to clns lol.

and throw the damn drop coverage in the river, it won’t work with the Pacers. Drop coverage just plays right into what they want to do

Who smokes the big ECF cigar?
