    Disappointing loss in that it felt like a very winnable game. But, will take the moral victories regardless

    * Herro had spurts of greatness
    * Bam was owning Porzingis on offense
    * Smart plays by Kyle on both ends for stretches
    * Remained really competitive despite Jimmy sleepwalking and no Caleb/Highsmith/Richardson to throw on the perimeter

  2. readndrun

    I think we can all agree, fuck Derrick White and those refs

    Dammit. **Damn** great game man. [Love how physical these games are.](https://streamable.com/douu8c) Know we all got hyped going up 26-13 expecting a repeat of last year’s Game 7 but this was much more in line with strong punches by both sides. They got the better of us in the end.

    * Bam v. Porzingis was a treat. Loved Bam’s performance even if the shots didn’t fall 4th Q
    * Herro was superb. Knew the woeful shooting vs Detroit was an aberration they were good looks
    * Jimmy played like I expect 38-year old Jimmy to play with this duo. Super passive. Didn’t even feel him much in the passing lanes as much as we normally do. But hey, it’s Jimmy, I ain’t sweating it
    * JJJ had some “Welcome to the NBA” moments getting roasted by Tatum and Jrue blocking his dunk
    * Dru Smith showed out y’all. The nerve on that pull-up 3 4 seconds into the shot clock is Gabe Vincent regen energy
    * I may have been too soon on my Kyle Lowry is cooked allegations
    * I hate Derrick White. [Marsupial mfer](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/a8c8JCyUvRY/maxresdefault.jpg) kills us every damn time
    * Wish they called that backcourt violation on White to have made the ending fair oh well

    It’s 1 regular season game. But I didn’t see anything that made me say: “*yea we have absolutely no response for that*” come playoff time. We’ll see if we can bounce back tomorrow vs a team that has owned us in the Jimmy era.

    We just needed an “ok” performance from Jimmy and we woulda won.

  5. Fastbird33

    Missing Martin and JRich hurts. We need their defense in games like this

  6. CMViper

    Refs came in the clutch for the Celtics. Typical.

  7. surgeyou123

    Gross end. Jimmy just too sleepy with the other wings missing. Celtics still soft.

  8. _hiroprotoganist

    Lol I’m not scared of Boston.

    Heat in 5.

  9. FlipinoJackson

    Celtics and Doris Burke are all acting like they’re going to the Finals in game 2 of 82 in the regular season.

  10. liluzamaki

    refs get worse every year. where do they find these clowns

  11. YouWasntThere

    That team doesn’t scare me at all at all. Weak af.

  12. Ozymandias12

    Whatever. I’ll say this, Boston doesn’t scare me at all. They’re one bad Kristaps achilles from being a first round exit team. Jimmy had a lazy Jimmy night, we didn’t have Caleb, and the refs helped them all the way.

  13. Waly_Disnep

    Gotta love when the refs wait to see the result before blowing the whistle.

  14. ManBeef69xxx420

    These refs are amazing and definitely very good at their job.

  15. Melyheadzbeatz

    The Celtics is food idc what yall say they not that!

  16. Phenom_Mv3

    CeltiKKKs can only win rigged games without Tatums Daddy Haywood

  17. xlalalalalalalala

    still a nice game for us imo even with the bad Jimmy night

  18. bluepineapple42069

    As always, Fuuuuuuuck Derrick White.

    White’s achievements this game:
    – backcourt violation
    – 2 fouls that were counted as a block

  19. Cockycent

    I’ve seen enough. Bam is getting his ring this season.

  20. infernapethethird

    We played fine, nothing to be worried about really. I’ve never seen a foul get called 3 seconds after contact though wtf

  21. Mezothelioma

    dru smith -18 with 23 minutes absolutely killed us

  22. NOTUgglaGOAT

    Loss sucks. Jimmy was a no show. But I’m not worried about Jimmy. We went toe to toe in their arena with who people expect to be one of the top 2 teams of the east with a bad Jimmy game and missing Caleb and J Rich. My confidence has sky rocketed. FUCK IT WE BALL

  23. Adrrenalinee

    Boston and those refs can suck a dick

  24. Hoover44672

    Absolute horseshit at the end. You rarely see Spo that mad. Overall happy with the way they played tonight. Herro is special.

  25. LemonCanddy

    Hosed by the refs on that back court violation

    Not scared of this fraud celtics team

    its game 2/82 we move on we’ll be aight

    don’t get too much on jimmy we all know he’s more than capable of cooking boston like a Michelin Star Chef

  26. Harman3112

    Considering jimmy sleep walking and us missing our three best wing defenders, I’m chilling

  27. RealSeanH

    celtics take game 8 of the Eastern Conference Finals 😤👏

  28. ThiccPapaSIZZLE

    I really think Adam Silver ruined this league and how the game is played. The constant foul baiting and ref bailouts deciding games takes me out of it and I’m so tired of it man. I love the Heat and will watch every game I can but I had zero excitement about the league as a whole with the season starting

  29. BaMelo_Lall

    That ref was about to lose his parlay

  30. craycraycraig

    Fuck the Celtics and fuck the refs and that’s that

  31. Tough night, can’t win them all, if Jimmy plays even average they win the game, a lot of positives to take away, onto the next one.

  32. Fire-Giant

    It’s okay we gonna clown Boston on Sunday 🏈

  33. MargielaMan568

    Nothing much to say. Jimmy had one of those games where he’s too cool for school and overall just looked disinterested. Tyler, Bam, and Lowry looked good tonight. Onto the Timberwolves.

  34. TheRatchetTrombone

    u/Number333 feeling the exact same as the Eagles game. Team showed more in both games that they are a true contender respectively and just gotta get healthy. Eerie similar.

  35. Aggravating_Plant_39

    I think it’s obvious that we need Caleb Martin, Josh Richardson and Highsmith back.

  36. EntrepreneurSweet846

    Still early in the season, celtics is not as fluid when they have williams and smart, i guess jrue will take some time to gel on. Spo has been experimenting, good baptism on fire for the rookies JJJ, Smith to guard Tatum etc, just feel bad I hope he also take a chance with Jovic. (jovic apologist here)

  37. yummy_yum_yum123

    Celtics are lowkey kinda ass I’m not moved, that team is fraudulent and soft as hell. We lost but Boston is going hit a wall

  38. So Tyler “Scoot Herderson is better” Herro had 28/6/6 against the odds on favorite to win the championship. Guess he is really only worth a 1st round pick. Lol!
