Celtics/NBA Playoffs: Round 2 - Game 7 Friday 9 PM

[Scruffy]

Absolutely putrid one sided officiating.

 

[Troublesome 85]

Lol all the idiot Raptor fans acting like they earned this win.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

No reason to watch game 7. The NBA is rigged once again. Or perhaps it truly always was. I've hardly watched since around 2010.

It’s almost fitting I watched Celtic Pride this week

Game 7 is Friday ?

yeah got better things to do than watch this.

Probably should have won in 5 games, but here we are with a Game 7.

Honestly, Nick Nurse should be suspended for that baseline bullshit he pulled. There's nothing I hate more than blaming the refs, but how do you let something like that go.

I am ready to punch every wall in my house.

How does this get allowed? HOW??!?!?!?!?!????

 

[BernieMcAvoy]

When there was critical foul calls that could have easily ended that game that went completely unnoticed and uncalled whilst flaky fouls were being called on the other end, that becomes a moot f***ing point. Especially when Nick Nurse caused one of those turnovers by entering the field of play and should have gotten a technical.

It's the nba, you should expect garbage refs and them doing their best to extend the series, despite that they still should have won the game. Tatum had 6 turnovers and at least 4 of them had to have come in clutch situations, he threw the game away, even if you're playing against another team and the refs that's not what superstars do in the playoffs. He choked

Oh come off it mate. Tatum may have made mistakes but when the game is on the line and Nick Nurse does something that egregious, that overrides any turnover made before and after when that arguably shaped how that game ended. If that call is made, Tatum makes the technical and extends the lead. If Walker gets the call on the layup, its game over and the Celtics get ready to take on Jimmy Buckets and the Heat. Those two calls single-handedly shaped the outcome of the game and caused the Celtics who have a weak bench to get gassed. And I'm sure this will have no impact on Game 7 this Friday whatsoever guys.

Kyle Lowry is a piece of shit. Go play soccer if you want to flop and cry to the officials

Actually Lowry and Smart are very similar. They both play with a lot of intensity.

 

[EvilDead]

But that doesn't happen because Raptors would still have possession.

You telling me that with the Raptors behind two that Nick Nurse wouldn't try and rush a play at the end of the game with 2 seconds left on the clock and needing to go down the court to hit a game winning shot to keep them alive? Aight then. If it makes you sleep better at night.

 

[EvilDead]

I guess the refs were to distracted by Marcus Smart flopping around.

Yeah. It was just Marcus Smart flopping. Not like Kyle Lowry has been doing that shit since game one.

But please, keep digging this hole deeper for yourself. It's amusing to watch.

 

[Scruffy]

Lol at clown Raptors fans coming in here and trying to claim the refs weren't completely on their side.

 

[EvilDead]

I will say that Kemba Walker's inability shoot in regulation and the struggles Jayson Tatum had early on were atrocious and could have helped put this game out of reach had the Celtics been able to get going early like they did in Game 5. Not to mention the inability for the Celtics to find a way to throw cold water on Kyle Lowry when it counted most was terrible. But to pretend that the refs weren't keeping the Raptors in it is blind to reality.

It’s important to note that raptors fans are also leafs fans, the delusion is to be expected

 

[Midship]

I had to turn that shit off in 2OT- nothing short of a nauseating product. The officiating is so openly rigged it makes the NHL playoffs look legit by comparison. Laughable, insulting, etc, take your pick.

 

[JRull86]

Not a foul.

LMFAO

 

[EvilDead]

Any fan base has hardcore delusional fans. But I want to know what they put in the water up North, because the levels of delusion Toronto sports fans have be it the Leafs or Raptors is beyond normal.

He has to be fined for this. It is inexcusable

 

[Zillah]

I was wondering what all the swearing , complaining and general pissed - offedness was then realized you were talking basketball , not hockey ... carry on

 

[EvilDead]

His behavior this entire series is unacceptable and if Adam Stern allows him to continue to get away with it, I will be disgusted.
