This game will say a lot about the Celtics. They respond well to losses in playoff games, it’s usually when they win a game especially in blowout fashion do they approach the next game in such a garbage way right from the start they let the other team get comfortable before snatching the game late.

After long self reflection and much calculus I have determined that I would prefer a win this evening.

I wonder what adjustment Spo will make? Maybe he'll unleash the zone on us for the 30th time.

You know what it’s going to be lol. Super aggressive Tatum traps and forcing the ball into everyone else’s hands, let them go 1 on 1 with Herro. More Duncan Robinson, and taking more threes, even if ill advised.

You’ve softened in your old age.

After checking my own math, I can confirm that I would like a Win, as well.

Probably calling up some G-leaguer and having him torch us on 3

The team will all have 3rd arms surgically grafted under their offhand arms. These will increase the effectiveness of Miami's two-hand hand checking by a full 50%.

Patty Mills starts and chucks, that’s my guess.

Nuh mate.

Even easier, just have the higher score than the Heat at the end of the game. I think that means we win?

Tonight is **** huge. Are the Celtics gonna take that next step and go for the jugular? Or are they like the last 8 years of Celtics teams and lose games they should win when they come in and coast to a inferior team?

Let's put it this way. If they lose tonight, I call into question if they can win it all. Denver isn't going to be easy.

Is the game going to be on NBC Sports Boston/New England too, or just on TNT?

I hate that these games are on TNT, a lot of our losses during the regular season came on TNT IIRC (someone posted it). wasn't game two on TNT? Give me all ABC/ESPN games, we might sweep the whole way to the Chip!

I want a big win with a Jayson Tatum heater game. Like a 45 piece or something. People need to start putting some respect back on my boy JT’s name. All this Edwrds talk but they forget Tatum is only 19.

Anyways **** the Miami Grease bags. Kill them all. I need that defense again that was one of the most Ime Celtic games we have had in the playoffs since we let him go and I feel that’s where Boston is at it’s absolute best. The ECF we beat them in we held them to under 100 in 3 wins, two games they had 80 and 82. With Joe last year we held them to 99 and 97 at best so seeing us hold them to 84 was really encouraging. This should be a team that can’t score more than 95 pts on Boston, specially without Jimmy and Rozier.
A new dawn will rise in Boston. ‎#StayLoyal THANK YOU TRUTH!

It looks like the whole 1st Round is simulcast on NBCSB? I have Game 5 on the schedule.

Crashing the offensive glass? That's been a weakness of ours
