NBA Playoffs, Rnd 1: Nets (2) @ Celtics (1) – 7:00PM, Sun. 05-30-21

Here’s my real problem with Kyrie, he is fake as ****. Only cares about his close buddies.

Kyrie commits a hard foul on Smart and he denies it, does a light tap on Tatum (his buddy) and he’s like yep good call ref.

I don’t think I have ever seen another NBA player do that. Not in the playoffs. Not even Bron.

nesmith, hell yeah. i like this kid. the shooting, the effort, i like his body language too, you can tell he gives a sh&t. he's getting in a good rhythm right now with his shot.

Nah, I think they can. Which is scary

I don’t know, tonight is basically the perfect game offensively by them.

We needed Smart to be better. He's been there before. And one more of the scrubs to step up. This was the time for Langford and he didn't do it. I didn't really expect or hope for anything from anybody else, they are what they are. Fournier and Thompson are mediocre talent. That ain't gonna get it.

Just liquidate him and resign Smart and Fournier, while hoping some of these young guys blow up.

I mean this is really the only plan for the next few years then hopefully you have something other teams want in a trade.

I’m all on board with a Smart, Pritchard and Madar point guard rotation next year. At least that would be some hope.

There is no hope with Kemba Walker

You aren't allowed to breath in his direction, so you are correct.

He'd have 25 points without FT'S..

Celtics don't have that mobile forward with size to guard the likes of Durant. The few times Timelord guarded him in this series, he couldn't score over him.

Probably perhaps shoulda went to Nesmith over Langford.

STILL PLAY TOUGH!!! COME ON, 5PT RUN IN 30 SECS!!!

I can't believe how much Blake has regressed. This guy was an MVP candidate not that long ago and averaged 25ppg like two years ago.

Get Tatum in for one last run.

Has to be NOW.

They won’t shoot as well when they have to defend more than one person. They’ll be tired and won’t be able to hit a thing, hopefully.

Hard to see the Nets winning more than a game if this Celtics series is any indication

F kyrie he’ll get his we had a down year and that no heart weak headed loser kicked us while we’re down. Celtics gonna get back next year and hopefully play these weenies again.

Nesmith really starting to look like the 3 and D plus player he was supposed to be. Just absolutely ecstatic for his year 2 leap.

Best fans in the NBA by a mile. This is a 20 pt game and louder than most arenas in a close game.

That sums it up perfectly. It is hopeless with Kemba.

No Brown, Williams and Walker.
That's a long ass putt.
Celts playing their hearts out

If Brad has some 8-pt plays up his sleeve, this is the time to use them.

CelticsPride18 · Post #1079 » by **CelticsPride18** » Mon May 31, 2021 1:10 am

Lol they really want to make a statement playing the big 3 vs this **** lineup

I agree. 3 great players all unconscious. Not likely to happen consistently, especially against a good defensive team which the Celtics are not.
