2024 NBA Playoffs - East 1st Round: #1 Boston Celtics vs. #8 Miami Heat (BOS WINS 4-1)

[DayofMourning]

Bostons going down. 3 in a row boys!

Just try to remain competitive heading into the 2nd half of tonight's game.

Exactly.....then blow them Boston boys out in the 2nd half, right?

4-1 incoming

One thing I don't like about message boards is that it's too easy to take the comments of a few posters, and make that represent an entire fan base. Unfortunately there are bad posters / fans from every team, and often they are the loudest commenters, but saying things like "Heat fans are this or Celtics fans are that" is really doing injustice to the rest of the fan base who have nothing to do with the over-the-top comments made by the few.
I know that most of these in-your-face posters would also never do stuff like this in real life (hiding behind a key-board is just way too easy nowadays), so they get off by acting all tough from the protection of their own homes.
Thankfully there are way more classy fans from most fan bases who are willing to talk about the actual game without going all nuts or looking to cause trouble. I actually learn a lot from these boards through some of the well thought-out comments of many of the posters here, and try to just ignore the pot-stirring comments of the others.

Great post you're a mod now congrats! As your first act feel free to ban everyone in this thread including me.

Nah, I'd have to ban myself as well. All Too often I've dipped my own toe into the mire of entire fan-base accusations, as well as making my own over-the top statements. I'm trying to avoid doing that, but occasionally my old nature rears it's ugly head, and I'm just as guilty of those of whom I posted.

What's Bam's career high?

Edit
41. Same for Herro, 41.

That's what it'll take.

If the Celtics morph into traffic cones on defense tonight, maybe one of them can score 40

Let's close this **** out and play a real fan base.

105 pages? I was like what the hell? Then I realized there isn't anything in here of substance from the Heat fans except Celtics got lucky we don't have our starters and how we ripped the Celtics apart 2 of the last 4 years and how Celtics fans are babies. Oh and they're bragging about injuring and hoping to do some more injuring.

All 3 Heat fan stoking the flames while sixers and Knicks out here with like 400 pages.

End this misery Boston.

Heat have a chance if Herro and Caleb go supernova with 3's. That's the only shot tho

Chris Haynes just said Porzingis will likely be out until the ECF.

If we weren't missing so many guys I could see us maybe winning tonight since we play better on the road and C's have a hard time closing. But theres too much of a discreptancy talent wise and the lack of firepower gives the C's too much of a cushion. They should win pretty handily.

It's too bad cause this thread has been so intellectually stimulating, I just wish it would go on longer. I think we've all become better men because of it.

Another Jaylen Brown masterclass on dribbling and offensive execution incoming (insert sarcasm emoji)

That's not a surprise. Hopefully he doesn't injure something else during rehab.

I've learned a lot from the Corey dude.

Me as well, from all 5 of his personalities.

Yeah def split vibes

[Enso]

Is this a grindfest or a scoring fest I think we'll find out if shots are falling early for both teams.

[durden_tyler]

The only real question for tonight is if the Celtics cover (-14) and if totals go over/under (202.0).

[Chuck Everett]

The East having this many injuries is just unbelievable.

[BigDan245]

Why is Boston so much worse at home?
