Post-Game Talk: NBA ECF Game 2 - Celtics fall apart in 2nd Half and now down 0-2 in ECF

[EvilDead]

Kemba is finally back to normal.

Kemba is back this half

I wondered why Canter did not play game 1. Good move by Stevens to put him in

 

[lopey]

No laying back on defense. Time to grow the lead

 

[Alicat]

Nice to see you Kemba

 

[lopey]

Walker on fire baby

 

[McGarnagle]

Back up the brinks truck for Kemba

 

[Alicat]

I get that. That's probably the most annoying thing about basketball is the audible squeaks.

High pitched noises seem to set off my headaches more than the lights in my apartment

 

[Alicat]

I love Kemba

 

[BernieMcAvoy]

Possessions like that from Tatum annoy the hell out of me. Theis has the mismatch and positioning on Dragic but Tatum wants to dribble the air out of the ball and have a screen set for him so he can chuck up garbage, you're up 15 points and you're just settling for shots instead of attacking them, that's exactly why they blew multiple double digit leads last game

 

[CDJ]

Kanter pacing for 18 and 12 in 16 minutes

 

[pgm16]

13 is nice, but 20 would have been nicer...lol.

Solid half despite the turnovers

 

[McGarnagle]

I watched literally one game all regular season (the Clippers game that went to OT in November), so I'm not going to pretend to be an expert by any means, but it seems to me that when the Celtics win, they blow out the other team, and when they lose it's a nailbiter that they lose by like 3 in double OT.

At least in these playoffs

Celtics are looking good. 60% from the floor in the first half.

 

[EvilDead]

Tatum with the Paul Pierce-esque drive to the cup to get the and-1!

 

[EvilDead]

Oh no. Kemba's down.

 

[Alicat]

Jimmy Butler is garbage. There is no need to throw elbows

 

[BernieMcAvoy]

Here comes the refs letting Miami hack the shit out of the celtics to bring them back in the game. Theis can't even breathe near someone without it being a foul but Bam can bash him in the head with a forearm and it's perfectly fine

 

[Alicat]

Garbage quarter

 

[CDJ]

Not great

 

[pgm16]

Terrible defense, come on !!

 

[Scruffy]

10 point lead gone and some really bad calls by the refs. How the hell are refs not held accountable?

 

[Scruffy]

17 point lead blown. Fire brad

 

[Alicat]

Miami is just tossing elbows. Someone is going to seriously get hurt and it’s on the refs for not controlling it
