Wow. Bam with a dominant block on Tatum. Tatum will remember that for a long time and so will Bam

Wow. With 2.5 seconds left Smart threw a football pass to Tatum at the three. Tatum actually fell to the ground, just barely got up and launched it and it banged the rim.

Huge choke. Huge choke. The Celtics are more athletic. The Heat are smarter, better coached, harder working, and hungrier.

Brad calls time. Even if they win they choked this game away Embarrassing loss. Tatum gets treated like a star but is anything but clutch at this point. Kemba was terrible again. Smart played well again but blowing double digit leads in the 4th is totally unacceptable. It is a mixture of missing Gordon and a terrible bench. Having to play all of these minutes is going to catch up with us if it hasn't already. I hate losing to Pat Riley most of all.

I agree, but I don't think there's any way to say the Heat aren't hungrier. I think Butler has been in the league a while and so has Crowder and Kelly O and Dragic and they want it more. They absolutely just punched the Celtics in the mouth.

It just seems we should have won this game. Nothing I saw makes me think the Heat are the better team, and I still think we'll win this series.

Helluva game. Again, i wish i didnt have a rooting interest in it so i could enjoy it more lol.
As someone mentioned earlier, man the C's could use Hayward. These minutes catch up to them late in the game.

With the Clippers being eliminated in another Doc Rivers underachieving playoff run, we are the best team left in the playoffs. Number 18 is right there for the taking. We just have to go and take it. I don't fear either of the Western Conference teams...bit of trivia...the last time Denver and the Fakers played in the WCF's was 2008....let's make this season end woth the same result.
Miami is a tougher team than either of them. Winning Game two is imperative after blowing this game.

I'm worried how I never feel like a game is over with us. We can be up 5 with 2 minutes left or even 8 with 5 minutes left and we just start pounding the ball until the shot clock goes to 5 and play ISO ball hoping we can run out the clock but taking terrible shots. It's like the opposite of the '08 Celtics where I never worried even if they were down late. This was ours to win and it hurts to let it slip.
