I'm a Bulls fan and I thought those techs were ridiculous. That said, LaVine is scorching hot, and the Celts defense just seems confused tonight.

Nice ovation for KAT back in Minny. Hope he dumps all over Gobert tonight.

Horrible effort from the Celtics and refs more or less ended the Celtic momentum because they can't regulate their feelings.

We didn't deserve to win, Chicago made their 3s, we didn't and a really disappointing lack of composure from our coach.

Vuc absolutely slaughtered us (frankly I would keep him if i was Chicago)

GG Bulls fans and congrats. No excuses.

So annoyed and irritated with Joe and most of our players tonight.

I am in a foul mood. Need the Wolves to smash the Knickers and Kings to beat the Lakers to make me feel better lol

Celtics half assed all game with defense in the paint.

But 3 techs in the fourth quarter for nothing? I'm sorry, but this shouldn't happen in pro sports. The same ref more or less made an emotional decision to punish the Celtics' for talking back.

But hey, at least Chicago gets to feel special since they won't be in the playoffs.

May be the worst I've ever seen.

This is absolutely unacceptable. They've consciously decided the outcome of a game.

I still don't understand what Kerr is trying to prove going so small .

Even in the Olympics he loves Green or JJJ type of guys as Centers.
