Jaylen Brown set the tone tonight making 4 free throws in 4 attempts. Celtics never looked back.

When he is not getting open threes it's often because he is being heavily guarded which makes him a floor spacer and net positive....which is why he is such a great season long +/- guy.

We have a top 5 player in the league that's just going through a rough patch.

Hard to believe there's a meltdown when the Cs are winning by more than 20.

The standard here is really through the roof now. :lol:

That's the difference between teams that win titles and come up short.

I feel like they should win this series in 5. We shall see.

I picked them in 5 but if it's anything like tonight we can expect a sweep.

Game 2 is key. Are they coming out with the fire or or they the complacent Celtics again.

And that's a good sign because it means gone are the days that the Cs can't win if JT sucks.

I think JT would be better playing off ball. Just let the guards set him up, instead of him trying to create on his own.

Can’t say enough about how Luke Kornet played tonight. Was the best big on the floor for either team

Oh yeah. Kornet has made a name for himself.

Every time I see Niang and remember he's from Lawrence I think how crazy is that.

Also every time I see Niang I think he looks exactly like a random guy from Lawrence :lol:

Fierce1 · Post #938 » by **Fierce1** » Wed May 8, 2024 1:14 am

Yeah, Kornet was huge in this game.

The small things added up.

That's why the Cs have this big lead.
