Celts Win Photo Finish In Motor City! Victory Cigar vs DET 10/26 

Post#1 » by bisme37 » Sun Oct 27, 2024 1:31 am

Lol you guys, I had a whole thing written at halftime and after that 2nd half it didn't make any sense. I don't know what the heck that was but I think we won yay!

Celts dominated early and took a big lead, but then got stuck in mud for a big chunk of the game and really had to battle in the end. Thankfully we made the big plays in the last few minutes and got out of there with a win.

Tatum remains in murder mode to start the season and Jrue and Derrick came up huge in the clutch!

Bucks Monday, Go C's!

White and Jrue just make winning plays. Exactly what we saw in the POs.

Copied and pasted from Riverwalker or whatever his name is.. :D

But they get my vote!

Will the Pistons hang a banner for this epic close loss to the Champs?

This game gave me horrible flashbacks. At least we pulled out the win though. We would lose these a lot a couple years ago.

There will be times it will be like this in an 82-game season.

But the Cs showed why they are champs.

Big shot by JT with 29 ticks left.

White with another amazing block on Cade's dunk attempt.

And Jrue back to back 3s to tie the game at 112.

I don't know why JB chose to make those comments about the Pistons. They play us tough

The guys are on pilot mode to start the season but they need to pick up the defence early. Pistons were keeping it close because we let them get confident early from our lacklustre defence.

Even JB got the crucial rebound when Cade missed that FT with 11 ticks left.

Wins like this, especially on the road, is a sign that the team has matured.

Losing a 20+ point lead and clawing back - THAT's the C's I know and love. Can't make things too easy.

Also, is Luke's contract guaranteed this year? Can we, ya know, release him?

This team is just not serious. They play down to their competition, they blow big leads and suck in the clutch. I don’t know if they have what it takes to ever win a championship.

Let’s give it up for holiday for the two massive 3’s while everybody else was stuck in the offensive mud.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

That is absolutely true.

But I think pilot mode for 3 qtrs. will lessen the chance of getting injured.

Going hard for 48 minutes raises the chance of an injury happening.

Detriot are a much better team than many think, got a solid young core and good bench, will compete for play-offs as soon as next season.

No more anxiety or fears about Jaylen taking clutch free throws

Buffalo won us the game with that amazing block down the stretch

Tillman now 7-0 v The Pistons
