    I gotta be honest this is probably the second best outcome for us the first obviously winning the chip but I’d rather lose a blow out game then lose a close game knowing we were a possession or two from winning. I’m hopeful that this huge blow to the team will make them fight harder especially at home and play their best game of the season! ☘️

      The coach gave this away either that or he is an idiot 2nd quarter they started blowing the game open in the paint and the whole time he has porzingas ready to go sitting there dumbest shit I've ever seen I'm not a Boston fan but I'm yelling at my TV in the second and third quarter like WTF!!! If I was KP I would have been begging to go in and close it out and he didn't even try I think there's league manipulation all through these playoffs games 1 and 2 of the wolves- nuggets was fixed by the refs maybe just to make it interesting but the best team didn't come out of the west now they are trying to close a new TV deal and a sweep in the finals is no bueno I think KPs injury was exaggerated wink wink and someone leaned on Joe if that's not what happened last night then the guy is just an idiot

    tough night. but let's be real, the Mavs just flamed for one game, while the Cs had one of them infamous (but rarer) crash 'n' burn nights. the Heat had one, the Cavs did the same, but, imho, the Pacers are still the toughest team the Celtics have faced all playoffs. this ends Monday.

We almost came back from 0-3 last year, I really don't want to be on the wrong side of history on this one. That being said, I'd put money on banner 18 Monday night.

      I hate to say it but the Boston coach might have been gotten too and I think they all knew it the second quarter the Mavs are blowing the game open AT THE RIM and Joe has KP ready to go doesn't put him in I'm not even a Boston fan and I'm yelling at my TV WTF are you thinking put KP in and end this thing but the show must go on this season was about a TV contract and the buisness had to much influence over the games look at games 1 and 2 of the wolves nuggets series then watch game 7 which is when they realized they fucked up refs swallowed their whistles for the wolves in the first 2 games that was enough to make it interesting but when Denver ran out of gas in game 7 the calls started going their way the best team in the west didn't make the finals that's obvious from how Boston is running them out so KP is "injured" wink wink but he feels good wants to play but a sweep is no bueno so he never gets in and Dallas go nuts at the rim hmmmmm

    Celtics didn’t show up. They played with no drive, no confidence, and were stuck on 25 points for a long time. They probably listened to the comparisons made with some of the dominant teams in the past Finals. They do not yet belong in that group. Celtics still need to show their hunger for the chip and play that way, They will play better on Monday.
