He's a spectacular player but his total lack of team defensive awareness and his mediocre 5-5 offensive awareness will ensure he never becomes a top 5 player in the league despite the ability

The whole team never closes out on 3 point shooters.

Blaming Kyrie is stupid. Its Nash's idiotic defense.

Bruh... this is ONE game.

What was Brown doing on that possession? Horrible over dribbling.

A tightly called game benefits the Nets. Brooklyn is a finesse team. Finesse teams always want tightly called games.

I hate the stupid fashion stuff, him being a bit soft, but a 6'10 solid defender would be huge for the Nets.

Nash has bigger wings but he isn't playing them. He keeps playing his small guards

Horford resurgence on the court while his wife fights the good fight for him on social media. What a team lol

Jaylen played Kyrie beautifully. That's just a ridiculous shot.

Claxton is clearly better than Drummond. Drummond truly still is empty stats

Are the refs benefiting the Nets here?
Just my neutral observation.

Kryie salutes the fans.

As good as Tatum has become his handle is still way too high and you can disrupt it way too easily.

1. Kyrie's been clueless basically everywhere in his career.
2. The Nets superstars really don't want coaching.

Yeah I'm not complaining about any particular calls but if everything is a foul that benefits the Nets. Celtics are the more physical team and they aren't allowing physicality.

Durant has lowkey declined. He doesn't have the burst or first step he used to in OKC/GSW

Celtics seemed to have the whistle in their favor slightly in the 1st half, slightly Nets way in the 2nd half.
Refs sucked the whole game.

Tell the haters Kyrie

If the beginning of the 1st and 3rd quarter doesnt convince Nash that Seth on Theis is a terrible idea, then the dude needs to get fired before the playoffs are done. They were in holes to begin both quarters and were lucky not to be down more in the 1st cause of this idiotic lineup.

Who wins the series?
