Defense isn’t that bad, Heat just making some tough shots. Rebounding on defensive glass could be better. We just keep playing we’ll be fine.
its a miracle that we are close with how these refs are giving Miami whatever they want on both ends
I hope Lowry cool down after that bs shot
Lowry’s corpse cooking us today
We always let the most random fucking players go off for some reason lmaoo
I’ll say it again, fuck Kyle Lowry.
Of course the heat are as good as we all thought
All you Celtics fans saying “I’m not worried” just remember Heat doing this with Butler on the bench
I fucking hate Lowry’s fat ass
Man Lowry playing out of his mind. Still not worried though. He can’t beat us single-handedly and eventually our boys will get rolling. Loving big Rob on the offensive glass, too!
I guess will show up in game 7.
they are having everything going for them especially the refs and we are still just there with the, so we just gotta clean it up
Extended rest will give the bump to the old guys, Lowry will cool off later in the game and definitely later this series. Don’t over react to that.
They’ll cool off eventually
We are easily feasting on their zone defense when Butler is on the bench. Lowry threes kept them in the game. We should adjust the defense to take out the long shots when Butler is not on the floor.
Timelord is the key.
Idk what’s going on with white man. Outside of the Atlanta series he has been awful
Getting scorched by fucking Lowry, wth
I don’t think he’ll stay hot all game, but damn… mf is on fire.
Fuck this mf kyle lowry
Lowry shooting ouit of his mind. Can’t keep it up all game.
After that electric game 7, you’d think we would come out firing on all cylinders. But it’s one of these complacency games it seems where we’ll need to lose to wake everyone up.
Lowry can’t sustain this. Too old. Too much booty.
Celtics are afraid to bump bodies tonight. Gotta got physical! Gotta slap that meat!
i’ll take it so far, Heat hitting some lucky shots, refs helping them out slightly, tie game
​
stop the turnovers on our end, tighter D, looser O, good to go, if it doesn’t happen by halftime def come into 2nd half with that mentality…also drive more
Rob’s game is just so fun. back when Deandre Jordan was on the Clippers I dreamt of that type of player for the C’s. Go go gadget Rob is even better than I could imagine.
Celtics let unexpected players punk them multiple times a series, I never really see other teams allowing that to happen. It’s like every loss we take has a major outlier involved
I’d rather play the bucks cause the heat have nobodies beat you and it’s so frustrating
Its like we have no plan on offense….
Another washed up guard having a career playoff night. Sometimes the luck
Tatum is pretty fortunate they didn’t call a charge there. He drove in recklessly
I don’t think our defense has even really been bad. Heat are just shooting at unsustainable rates
Really stupid pnr defense so far
Calls aren’t going the Cs way, adjust and play through it Mr Tatum. Also, drive at Bam. Get Zeller on the floor
is it just me or does Caleb Martin always close out super close to under a players feet when they shoot. Messed up Brunsons ankle and i thought he fouled Tatum
Not feeling impressed by anyone other than TL. We don’t look particularly confident out there and Derrick White is shrinking.
So the main difference im noticing is that last year wed go on streaks where we couldnt buy a bucket against these guys, but the defense was good. And right now it feels reversed, like our defense is bad but were scoring.
I feel like our guys are just trying to stay out of early foul trouble tho since Bam, Jimmy, and Lowry all try to bait fouls.
Celtics up like 8 if they shoot the same percentage. They’ll fall down.
Gotta tip your cap to Lowry on some of these.. Nah what am I saying. Fuck that bitch and the sliding screens he relies on to get open
you all are acting like lowry isn’t going to calm tf down 😂😂😂 he’s playing out of his mind for like 5 mins relax
Yo why does Rob always fumble the ball now a days? My God. Its so frustrating because I dont remember him being like that
God I fucking hate the Heat so much.
DEFENSE the rest of the game imo
