GG Celtics fan. Pleasantly surprised with the way we held up without Jdub and Caruso.

It'll be a whole lot different with KP protecting the paint. Hope we get to to see it in June.

Well you can blame OKC’s game plan for some of that. Tonight it worked out, it’s not like they are missing their best post player or anything.

The 9/10 play in game in the West is going to be sad, then again, so is the one in the East

i haven't played fantasy basketball in years but man he must have killed alot of fantasy teams this season. are there no coaches to this team? no FO? so weird...


Since I saw this it’s been clear that there are not either of those things.

Another game where the Celtics try hard and lose

Hopefully this horrible era of Celtics hoops loses this year

One of the most reassuring losses of the season.

A +23 free throw discrepancy in favor of OKC the most physical defense in the NBA, Boston with 2 starters in foul trouble.... this game *should* have been a blowout. But the gap in officiating was expected after the Denver back to back made the narrative pause.


I think this week pulled the Thunder down to Earth. Hopefully they make the finals. Id rather see them than Denver.

GIddey > Caruso


Dude was asking Thunder fans because we watch the games and we know Caruso is much better for the Thunder.

Windhorst already said it. No one is scared of OKC in the playoffs. You’d think people who’ve watched the nba for many many years know there’s a difference between regular season teams and playoff teams.
