Gave the Warrior role players life, made them look like our pets in the 1st qrtr but after that we just gave them life with stupid possessions offensively.

Yea I'm gonna keep bitching about the refs when it's this egregious.

They were bad. But the PG oaky is awful. Smart was beyond terrible. Sit everyone. Lose by 30.

Memorial Day massacre territory. Blowouts happen.

It starts with the refs man. Brown was going ham and missed 5 minutes game time for a foul that literally never happened.

Warriors have been allowed to mug all game because they never reached foul trouble or called for it and made it difficult for the Celtics.

It snow balled.


I'm sorry.maj, brown got kicked in the **** face clear as day on a pump fake at the 3 line by curry and nothing.

You can't have it that way on both ends and for it not to add up.

Celtics turnovers ain't help their cause but they ain't get a fair whistle all game.

I would rather lose like if I am boston than a close game.They gotta fix their third quarter strategy. And they gotta do some film work on PnR defense. Great job by Kerr eschewing the ball movement offense.

Turnovers and poor PG play are the Celtics’ biggest issues.

I am not worried about series.

Why does this Celtics team always have that 1 disgusting quarter in their losses? What was talked about at half when the Celtics were only down 2? Everyone knows this is a must win game for the warriors and they are a notoriously hot team in the third quarter and we let them do whatever. Started off with brown, Horford, and smart forcing things and making selfish decisions, zero crisp passing like we saw in game 1

2-2 seems about right.

But Golden State has been better than us the entire series. We were really dominant for one quarter. Got smoked basically the rest of the way.


You know we were leading at halftime in game 1 right?


Big deal. The warriors have crushed this team in the 3rd quarter. They where up by plenty. This team needs to get their heads out of their you know what and star doing something.

I said this would go 7 so I suppose I shouldn't be too upset. We're due to have a game where we play selfishly so here it is. And GSW needed this one. I just hope it's out of our system now. IMHO, GSW waited for us to take this game and when we decided not to, they did.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

I didn’t think the Celtics would win tonight knowing they’d need a perfect game to overcome the refs. We could’ve had a very different outcome if they didn’t throw off the momentum in the first.

When three Celtics starters have 2 points each it’s really tough to win. At least the 5 starters didn’t have a combined 18 points for the game :wink:

What I will say is the refs robbed us of a decent lead which would have made the scoreline very different and possibly JB's confidence.

But regardless we should have been far better.

Eh, we're made of sterner stuff. I've seen it all year. We faltered this game but will bounce back.

This team is fortunate to be 1-1 right now. Feels like like they have been outplayed for the most part. 3rd quarter blues it’s embarrassing the way golden state runs away from them in these 3rd quarters.

Nesmith playing in every game of these finals so far was something I did not expect.

Gave the Warriors life with dumb turnovers and an overly-confident attitude coming into this game.
