So Bargnani helped us again tonight, game high 23 pts to distance Boston a bit more from the first overall pick.

Porzingis has now experienced the JV treatment :lol: :noway:

Wide open, no defender anywhere close, as a teammate throws up a contested shot.

nabbs wrote:Just wanna say that I like Boston's chances against GS tomorrow despite not having Marcus Smart. Smart is long, strong and so tough defensively that I honestly think he would give Curry a run for his money when you combine it with his competitiveness. Nevertheless, Boston is the second best defensive team in the league and expect Crowder and Bradley to get in Klay and Steph's grill early. Also consider that Brad Stevens is probably one of the best Xs and Os coach in this league. If there is any guy that will find a scheme to slow down GS down, it's him.


I'm not sure which game to watch tonight... the Raps game, or the GSW/Boston game!?

In Melo's defence, Rondo clearly fouled him as he was gathering. Given his track record, he probably doesn't pass anyway; but perhaps he figured he was gonna get a call there and 3 FTs.

The plot thickens.... kind of upset about this because if Boston wins (which I think might just happen), people will always look back and say klay was injured. However, allow me to say that Boston is missing arguably their best perimeter defender in Marcus Smart (who I think would want nothing more than to make Steph's life living hell).

The Celtics just handed the warriors their worst shooting performance in a quarter all season. I dont care if they are leading, this team is making the Warriors work!

Who cares. Boston's best player is a 5'10 guard. Dont care.

and Barnes, that's a lot of wing depth.
