Omg.....If you didn't see the play Tatum just made you missed one of the greatest and most athletic plays I ever saw

And another game that Kyrie shot us out of and lost by shooting 9-27. I don't care about 22 points if it takes you 27 shots to get there.

I'm actually encouraged by this game. Even with Kyrie shooting horribly, the starters outscored the Bucks starters by a fair amount. Our bench struggled and that's where Hayward's absence was really felt. Still, to lose by 1 point, missing a couple of key guys, on the road, to a very good team, with your best scorer having an off night? We may or may not beat the Bucks if we play them in the playoffs, but we definitely don't need to fear them.
Oh, and the refs swallowed their whistles on the final play. Marcus Morris was tackled right in front of them and no call. And Kyrie was fouled on his shot as well although that was not as egregious.

A frustrating loss. In a one possession game, anything goes. I still think Stevens was tinkering with the team yesterday, while Bud knew who was playing, and when they were playing.

Sorry I didn't get this game thread up. They finally came to put the roof up and one of the guys dropped something off the roof and knocked out our cable and internet, and electric and also knocked the cap off the gas meter. So, we had to wait for the Cable guys and the power company to come and reconnect everything. BUT, after 4 months we finally have a roof on the house. Next comes the inside repairs - hopefully they don't wait another 4 months to fix that  |

What jmost said.... I was also encouraged. We didn't have Hayward or Baynes, both of whom play well against the Bucks. Kyrie did not play well. And, the final play was for Morris who was mugged and held right in front of the ref. Kyrie was also fouled on that last shot. All that aside, the Celtics played them basket for basket right to the end.

I think BOS has a 50-50 chance versus MIL in the playoffs with the assumption MIL has home court advantage. Giannis is a top-5 NBA player, however most importantly he is treated like a top-5 player by the officials.
