Turnovers and Marcus Smart trying to play hero ball. Every Celtics loss is the same blueprint.

Disappointing loss

Live by the 3 - DIE by the 3

Warriors couldn't afford to lose this one

 

[Alicat]

Not going to stop.

 

[The National]

Another choke job.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Team stats pretty even. This came down to Curry outplaying Tatum. Curry 14-26 and Tatum 8-23.

 

[JRull86]

Absolutely f***ing furious with that effort. Shameful.

Game was there for the taking, and you pissed it away.

You are not Golden State, jacking up 3 after 3 is just not how you close out a game. Just mind bogglingly dumb.

Tatum needs to f***ing figure it out and stop with the 33% shooting on 25 shots.

 

[pgm16]

Scored 3 points to close the game

What a player Curry is. Tatum has to realize he is not a Kobe Bryant or a Curry.or a James to mention a few.
Congrats to the Warriors.

Nobody said this was going to be easy. They had terrible shot selection down the stretch. I don't know if Ime called the six straight 3 point tries or it was the players but woof. Terrible.

But we bounce back after a loss. They need to watch film footage and really study. Tatum and Brown really gotta dig deep. Can't afford to play like shit. Get some spider tac on Jaylens hands please.

All in all. We knew this was going to be a battle. Gotta win at GS. I still believe.

Get it done. It's not over. Far from it.

Believe

This is what this team is and this is what this team does. They always have done this. There’s two things you can’t do against this team and that’s turn the ball over and get into a shooting contest. Oh ya, you can add not hedging off screens bs Curry and Thompson. It’s basic. I know it and I’m a f***ing poster on a hockey board. f*** them for real

 

[JRull86]

Tatum doesn't have the killer mentality that the true superstars have. Just doesn't.

 

[pgm16]

Still say Celtics in 7, but I would have preferred in 5 or 6

 

[Troublesome 85]

Instead of closing in 5 they choose to make it hard and close in 7 and maybe gave GS momentum but does Curry have another 40+ performance in him?

going going back back to cali cali

Curry was amazing tonight

 

[Johnnyduke]

I just think the Warriors are a tick better. Thought Warriors in 7 and still do. The Celtics not being able to close out games is a pattern. It's part of who they are. They usually bounce back but a close game in the 4th quarter and they're kinda clueless.

It was always going 7 and the Celtics weren’t going to suddenly stop their yo yo play and anyone who thought differently was only kidding themselves.

 

[DangleCity]

I'd almost be upset/concerned at this point if they hadn't already blown numerous games these playoff

The real question is does Tatum have one in him

 

[The National]

I can’t do the blind faith thing, if they played like shit they played like shit. They beat themselves over and over again. What’s to say that wont continue?

When was the last time they won two in a row?

 

[JRull86]

God this is just so f***ing stupid when you see it written down like that.
