GS isn't used to playing their absolute best but the other team hanging around and being in it late. Our D is giving them fits.

Take it to the rack every possession no 3's unless they are wide open and/or late in the clock.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

That take by Tatum was phenomenal I'm not sure Durant could make that move off a pump fake from beyond the arc finishing on the defensive player of the year.

 

[McGarnagle]

Brad Stevens should be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame tomorrow, regardless of what happens in the fourth quarer.

Smart is so erratic. Times I think he is good other times he just can’t score

 

[TP]

Lotta time left. too bad he missed that shot.

 

[pgm16]

How can you not like this team ??!!

 

[TP]

BAM!

 

[pgm16]

14 Straight !!!

 

[EverettMike]

Holy shit

Hes pretty damned good overall for a guard that can't really shoot.

GS doesn't play games this low scoring keeping GS to 88 is more impressive than winning. And they clearly came to play and played well.

I think if we lose Smart he'll turn into an all star on a new team and do better than AB has in Detroit.

After tonight we're not outsiders anymore or a cute story for playing well without Hayward. Great win. The Warriors HATE it when a team D's them up like that lol.

Irving is so overrated

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

This is the greatest team in NBA history

Claws stop Drive 99-96 face the new Wisconsin Herd, yes, the Bucks affiliate, at the Bradley Center Saturday night

Was a great win. Eat it Charles!

Smart is great defensively. If he could just clean up his shots he would be an all star

 

[Mr Cartmenez]

Wow, that was one impressive win. I mean they seem to play the Warriors always tough, but without much offense and holding them to under 90 points? That D is legit, they finally have some length to defend properly.

And what can you say about Brown. As of right now, it's looking more and more like Ainge made the right pick. Nobody in the neighborhood who I would rather have.

Way to read the room.

Let me guess, Warriors fan?

14 in a row is incredible.

Could be a Raptors fan. According to some of them, the Celtics aren’t too impressive because they barely beat them. Nevermind that they were down their two best players, because Irving is overrated and as for Hayward... reasons? Toronto sports teams have some sore-*** fans, man. Hard to blame them, I guess.

I think Smart is playing for the perfect coach and in the right role

He can make more money but without structure I'm not sure how good he would be. I could see him coming down a few times a game mzybe half and launching 16 seconds on the clock 3 point bricks

There's some trick or treat to his game

There is a reason I don't gamble anymore I'd have given the 7- I'm stunned

Whether it was 11 early in the second quarter I thought 114-99 Warriors here we come

Irving is so overrated

If this post was an at bat

1. Strike one looking
2. Strike two looking
3. Strike three looking

Jaylen Brown throwing his very own coming out party for the country!

Danny took Brown at 3 when some NBA writers and mocks had him going as far back as 7

I didn't see Cal really play so I bought into that paranoia but he looks like a home run

Tatum I loved and was ecstatic reminded me of Keith Wilkes who was my favorite non Celtics for years

This team needs only health and good fortune and they are set for years

Red Auerbach would be so proud of Ainge

Warriors fall 92-88 in 1st-place matchup against Celtics

BOSTON — The speculation amplified as the Warriors steamrolled through seven teams by an average of 19.9 points: When would they finally be threatened?

In a 92-88 win over Golden State on Thursday night at TD Garden, the Celtics showed that they can do more than steal a meaningless game from the defending NBA champions. The league’s stingiest defense gives Boston a chance at pushing the Warriors in a seven-game series come spring.

“It’s very, very likely, right?” Golden State guard Stephen Curry said when asked whether he expects to return to Boston for the NBA Finals. “They’re playing the best right now in the East. ... We’ll see, but I hear the weather is great here in June.”
