They aren't dominating, Tatum and Brown are 1-6 - they'll get going (prob same with KD and KI, should be a great finish)


I think he's referring to the defense. And even then I don't agree that they've been dominant per say, but they've definitely caused the Nets a lot of problems. But their offense will need to be better if they want to win this game, let alone the series.

Nets down one, but they clearly stole that quarter.

Get Theis the **** out of there! He’s getting worked so bad! Celtics would be up 10 with Rob in there instead of him.

Well Rob isn't available right now so... this is the compromise.

Agree with JVG. No way we should be switching Theis into Kyrie. It’s the one matchup we shouldn’t switch

You would think Theis would know by now the refs don’t respect him. The best ability is availability.

We can blame the refs all we want but both teams committed some of the dumbest fouls possible so far. They force the official to call something. They run people over, swipes after lost rebounds you name it.

How’s that not a charge?

Our whole team will be fouled at at half time

Nets are too small to not foul and C's play wayy to aggressively to not call it. What do people want? The refs to just not call fouls? Thats not basketball

Literally anything’s better. When Horford’s on the bench, just go small with Grant at the 5. Theis is unplayable out there.
