Hauser had a nice game, now he has to start hitting shots

JT really disappointed and was in his head big time for the first three quarters. Nesmith is doing a number on him, hope he turns it around on the road!


Well to be fair.. JB in the regular season was so high and low at times.. Like a roller Costa..

But in these playoffs he's been a straight rocket up up Up..

And playoffs matter a hell of a lot more than the regular season

Great game, very strong second half.

I was happy to see Brown get 40 and play a really good all around game, especially after getting screwed over on the all mba selection. That's a nice legacy builder for him.

Too bad about Haliburton. I hope he is able to come back in game 3.

Dating back to 1963, there are only 3 instances of a Celtics player scoring 40+ and grabbing 5+ rebounds in a conference finals game. JB now has two of them (Rondo has the other one).

Hell of a follow-up after the game-tying three in G1.

It’s time to get serious and focus on TEAM basketball and let the point guards handle the ball the rest of the season.

JB’s role needs to be the 5th option for us to win a championship. (Until we can trade him)

In the Hawks games JB, AGAIN yells at Pritch and gets frustrated when he does not touch the ball for a few possessions. He’s been doing this crap for years and several times this season.

This type of ego impacts team performance. It forces JB into takeover mode. We know the story. Head down. Iso. Pass to someone’s feet if I get stuck.

I’ll still get a “potential assist” for the stat nerds.

The lowest IQ player should not complain about point guards who KYP. Know Your Personal.

JB is AN option not THE option.

Who would have thought that the best adjustment made all season, Was not by Joe, Or by the assistants..

But by the one and only Luke Kornet!!

OK..Sue me :lol:

Jaylen 'the smiling Assassin' Brown smokes it obviously.

Jrue and Brissett were fantastic too

Credit to Joe for figuring out the right adjustments and line ups

Hoping Haliburton and Kornet are okay

JB was simply brilliant again.
Jrue was phenomenal on BOTH ends - especially in first half. 10 assists.
Derrick was phenomenal on BOTH ends - especially in second half.
JT was less than dog **** on BOTH ends in the first half - then put up 20 in the second half. Frustrating Super Star.
Al 10 rebounds!
Pritch was quietly EXCELLENT!

Good W. 2-0

If Hali is out for the series cause he blew up the same L hammy again - we ‘should sweep’ but these guys are a tough group who play hard for 48l
No slack off. BRING IT.

CELTICS!
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.

That's objectivity right here lads:lol: someone should make this a signature. No offence to the OP i'm guessing this was after a dreadful JB night.

This is the best game I've seen JB play and he has had a LOT of magnificent games....easiest VC.

Jrue gets a puff.
