We need to keep the make a wish Kevin Love locked down.
Good assessment:

Great defense guys...

Good first quarter. If Celtics can score 34 points every quarter they have a great chance

This is not a fair matchup at all.

But we're playing as well as we can with the players available.

KD 17 on 10 shots, Tatum 14 on 8 shots. Going to be a showdown tonight, it looks like.

Also, Smart sitting the last 4:30 of that quarter doesn’t make sense to me.

I mean they're playing good and hard. Not sure if we can realistically ask for more. They've got 3 legit guys, we got 1 and then Smart/Fournier are good player but not proper calibre.

I love how when they mention what we’ll be missing with kemba out and all they say was his attitude and how much he smiles.

Can they play Tatum and Smart the entire second half? Can't let Pritchard, Ojeleye, Parker on the court at all.

Proud of the guys. We could scarcely have played better. Tall order to repeat that for three more quarters, but I am hoping.
