I would think that Porzingis,if not back by Monday night, would be back later in this series unless the Celts wrap it up Monday night. Originally it had been reported that he could return by Monday but it might be better to give him more rest and be ready for the final.

Sweet lord am I really going to say that’s up there with Rondo’s pass to Ray in the corner in GS as greatest Celtic passes I’ve seen? I think I am.

I thought he was fumbling the ball. Instead he was whipping a dart to Big Al who did what Big Al does.

Bucks and Heat were fighting over Dame, Brad Stevens sneaks in and stole Jrue from our two biggest rivals LMAO.

Can we get a category for Austin ainge? Without his expertise we wouldnt have this wonderful team.

Also thank you to Billy King. Having an ex Kardashian on the team for a year was worth it.

Assuming it's the Mavs and Cs advancing to the Finals, I would not be able to forgive our team if Grant Williams got a championship ring before Al Horford. So please please please get the job done. Whatever it takes.

Another game where we were down with under two minutes to play (down 6) and found a way to win.

Also, JT had 3 behind the back passes to Al in crunch time, and Al went 2/3 on them.

The finals games are already scheduled. If that series goes long, that just means less rest for them, but not more for us. If we are able to sweep I think we have 10 days of rest before the finals (which, I'd be tempted to say is too much if it weren't for KPs injury)


True true. I meant rest for us because we wouldn’t be playing any games til then, while they would be playing for another week or so. Didn’t make myself clear enough, my bad.
WHAT THEY GON’ SAY NOW? ‎ THANK YOU TRUTH!

Tatum was an absolute monster on the boards last night just needs to be said.

We are up 3-0 and need him going, shooters shoot, so we need to back him in.

Let’s get a few actions going for him to get going, keep the faith, if he gets a couple to go down it will be important.


Yup. But if he misses two, yank him out fast. He’s not a pure shooter. Pure shooters never have slumps this long. He’s a rhythm shooter.


We saw Ray Allen struggle for 3 rounds in 08. Slumps happen

Watching the new threads and people crumble is just as glorious as winning.

Not sure about you guys, but I have about eleven billion threads I’m going to bump soon on that.

Have to admit I’m enjoying myself on the General Board. Sixers, Knicks, Lakers and Nets fans are the worse. LOL!!

Hauser is 0/9 from three this series.
Curry was 0/9 from three in game 5 of the 2022 finals.

The obsession with overanalyzing every 10 shot sample of Hauser's career is just weird. The guy is a 40% three point shooter but he's not going 2/5 every game. It's just not how basketball works.

Ahhh damn it we got three? May I kindly request a mod allow me to re-vote or just add 1 to Jrue please?


Sorry I didn't see this last night. You can add/change your votes now if you'd like.
