They better show up tonight and that means tatum and maybe porzingis? Not softzingis. We are superior to the knicks. I expect the knicks best shot so they better be ready for that. Be ready to take their best punch.

Not expecting much from Porzingis. Whatever his illness is has clearly affected him. I’ll take just not being a massive negative at this point. Hopefully can finally get a JT highlight game. He’s due one.

Don't worry, Porzingis will be ready for the parade.

CELTICS MOTHER ****

Have a feeling this will be the game where the Knicks storm out to an early lead and we're the ones playing catch-up. Feels like the Knicks are due in for one game where they go hot from the field.

Better not. You don’t wanna play from behind and much further behind.

I’ve said it so many times, but him still being our most reliable big man in 2025 is insane. Deserves all the credit.


Not sure if that’s a testament to him or how underwhelming the alternatives have been though.

Really hoping we can find that next gear offensively. Looking at the competitive landscape outside of this series, it's a tad bit worrisome.

But either way, 2-2 is all that matters right now.

Big Al deserves his number retired. A true Celtics legend when it's all said and done, this generation's Robert Parrish.

Porzingis got most of the credit for his Willis Reed moments, but Horford was the starting Center for basically all of the 2024 title run.

JB Dribbling :banghead:
Tatum Hero Ball :lol:
+ Softzingis.

Man i do wish.But if they start panicking.Honestly so far Pritchard saved our ass and Jrue stabilized our game.Where was Softzingis?Where was Brown?

Give me 1 (ONE) good Tatum game.One.I saw total domination of Indiana Pacers last night .I do like that team really over Cleveland Cavs.And i dont want and i dont wish to see us having same game like Cavs had last night

Attack,Attack and attack and share some ball

Do or die tonight

My 7 year old drew a drawing today in art of C's beating the Knicks 108 to 101. So blame it on him if something goes sideways.

I'm sure if the Celtics lose tonight this forum will have plenty of Celtics to blame, your 7 year old is safe. :lol:

It's been really disappointing to see the Celtics revert to Kobe ball in the 4th Q in the first two game of this series. They looked like a team making their first post season. I feel like they did a much better job last post season in close games where they let their backcourt run offense and make decisions. Game 1 of the Indy series springs to mind immediately. It will be on Tatum to play the right way in close games moving forward, and that means being off ball at times.

I'm also afraid of any KP and Hauser minutes. They need to be playable because we cannot be just seven deep and win the title (including Kornet in the 7).
