That will get overturned.

Nesmith has played really well, good to see.

We might not be that bad with Groot at the 5 off the bench!

Achiwa is a REALLY interesting player.

Shooting 40% from 3, and a slightly undersized energy Center.

Can't quite figure out how good he is but I know he's super active lol. Lot of that activity is leading to nothing though lol

when Nesmith makes his mind up that he's driving to the basket and gets a head of steam going, man. he either scores or gets fouled like every time. he's so quick/explosive on those drives.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Not a bad showing for missing $85m worth of talent.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

It's weird that he can shoot the 3, but can't make a FT for the life of him.

Counting the personal fouls from the boxscore sadly it's only 3 on the Raps this quarter. Thought we were closer and that could have been massive

The only way Smart isn't getting blamed for this by the masses is if we win, so I hope we win.

We're out-talented. This is all heart, hustle, chaos, ugliness, and aggression. With Smart at the middle of it.

Toronto should be ashamed even if they win this game

Hauser has value just being on the floor. Stretches the defense out even if he never gets the ball.
