Celtics/NBA 2023-2024 NBA Playoffs: 1 Boston vs. 8 Miami

[Mione134]

Can't take them lightly. They're gonna play us hard, they always do.

 

[Maine Fan]

The Celtics are not a shoe-in for the first game in the first round. They will have to earn it by playing hard for 60 minutes. They are not a shoe-in for this series. They may think so. They have Porzingis, injury prone, although he has been good during this regulur season, they have questionable Jaylen Brown... it is playoff time, and they have the duel still trying to play competitively together during the playoffs with no banner yet.

Go Celtics

I wanted the Heat with or without Butler. Being a 14.5 pt favorite is crazy. It's time to take care of your damn business. 5 games max.

thought it would be a number close to 8. 14.5 you have to take which I imagine the heat will look to make a low scoring physical game

 

[Maine Fan]

Going to be a tough game against the Miami Heat today with Kornet out due to an calf injury.

Go Celtics

This series feels over already.

 

[Mione134]

This series feels over already.

I don't think so. The Heat ALWAYS plays us hard. This won't be a cakewalk. Can't get too cocky either. I still expect to win. But I'd be surprised if it was a sweep. Eyes on the prize. Head on straight. Focus.

 

[SPV]

This team. 31 point lead down to 15 in minutes. Le Sigh.

 

[Mione134]

Caleb Martin is a dirty f***ing player.

 

[CDJ]

EZ

 

[SPV]

Never as close as it started to feel when Miami went on their run. 3 more like that.

Caleb Martin is a dirty f***ing player.

He definitely rolled into him to knock him over and then tried to play innocent

 

[Shaun]

there’s no reason they should lose a game this series

100%

And ABC trying to say it was innocent was bullshit. He's been playing like a prick all day.

I would have lost it if Tatum got hurt in garbage time.

The Celtics are not a shoe-in for the first game in the first round. They will have to earn it by playing hard for 60 minutes.

So they just have to play hard for all 48 minutes of regulation time, 2 full OT periods and then just the first 2 minutes of the 3rd OT period.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Didn't see one second of the game. Only seeing this Tatum thing with a minute left. Maybe blockhead Joe will finally wake up. Absolutely no need for your star players to be in the game.

 

[KrejciMVP]

bounced up, but that probably hurts the next day with that hard fall

You must have been a math major. You missed the message but the Celtic players did not, thankfully. NO PROBLEM, however.
