We've all been there. I feel for you, brother. Llama names are no joke.

Wait... How many people own Llamas on this forum?? :lol:

Celtics gotta stop switching bigs on Curry as well as limit turnovers. Boston on Wednesday!

Draymonds would be ejection was a missed code I mean call .

Other than that the refs had nothing to do with anything I saw other than Jordan Poole double dribble/ palming .

Tatums play was disheartening makes me wanna jump ship all together but I’m not a Celtics fan just had a rooting interest in them .

Tatums play was disheartening ,no assists in 2nd half , in 2 games only 2 assist to jaylen brown . Meaning he is not looking for him as a release valve this is why they don’t execute to their best. It will be a cold day in hell before Tatum gets jaylen brown off . At that point he isn’t that great a player and pretty self serving .

Draymond picks his spots. You could see after he kicked Jaylen in the face that he knew he had probably crossed the line and was lucky to still be in the game. I would actually expect him to back off in G3 knowing the NBA is probably gonna be watching him more closely.

Celtics is such a bipolar team, you jus hope they are in the right side of spectrum 4 times in a series if you are rooting for them

Meh. I think that’s what we all were expecting. I was surprised at the tight game at the half.

Desperation. Matters. Adjustments matter. Boston has to find a way to get into their offense better. It wasn’t just bad shooting, it was bad offense from the Celtics .

The refs deciding to not eject Draymond after he kicked Brown in the face
Draymond being an offensive lineman and clearing a path for his Curry to shoot.

That is when the game turned. The **** reffing in the first half forced the Celtics to play extremely soft defense in the second half. To the Warriors credit they took advantage of the fact that the refs were creating space for them on offense, and allowing them to body, reach and grab on defense.

Casual (and naive) fans will look at the score and think the Warriors dominated. Are the Warriors really 30 pts better than the Celtics? No. The Celtics were neutered in this game. The NBA did the W's a solid, I expect them to return the favor when the C's are in a must win. This will go 7.

I think losing like this helps boston. Celtics’ biggest issue is Ballhandling and, for whatever reason, passing.

They get really sloppy at times. They need better of play.

interestingly Boston was 3-1 on the road against Miami (and 1-2 at home) and 2-1 on the road against Milwaukee (2-2 at home). while it was absolutely great they took 1 on the road, home court hasn't exactly been easy for them.

another interesting subplot, derrick white has been great for them and has reduced smart's role. marcus smart seems to be a wing player masquerading as a pg and derrick white has been great for them in the pg role.

Warriors needed that win. Boston's defense is just great. I think this goes 7.
