We have no one that can slow him down. How many points did he have in the first matchup?


Who gives a ****. Celtics are winning it all. I don't need the NBA to keep "selling" me some dude in Oklahoma that 15 other guys can do.

Guaranteed OKC cannot keep this type of play in a playoff series.

OKC's just the better team right now.

Cs have become one-dimensional in this game because JT is the only one who can score getting to the basket or hitting jumpers.

What excuse. The Celtics have absolutely been objectively on the wrong side of a one sided whistle.



Sure Bob. Happens when you attack the paint.


Unless you're the Celtics. Bub.

The refs haven't called the game the same on both sides of the court.

They been ridiculous.

Either way. Thunder isn't beating the Celtics with KP. All this trouble inside will go away.

OKC has gotten 20 more free throws dude.

Ugly turn around fade away by Jt. He just can’t get inside. Maybe he needs to post up and get the ball closer to the basket

It's a two possession game and it feels like a double digit margin, offense is sputtering

It would if you had KP, but we don’t have a big to make them pay on those switches.

Good and smart. They also don’t jack 3s left and right. A one dimensional team won’t beat them. Even the Cavs have beaten this year.

I mean, three minutes of solid defense and this is still doable. Not that we've shown that we can do that so far.
