Kings (16-9) vs Celtics (20-6) 

Post#1 » by codydaze » Thu Dec 21, 2023 1:43 am

Jayson Tatum and Al Horford are both out for a Celtics team that is on the second night of a back to back following an OT loss to the Warriors. We should look to capitalize on their tired legs and really push the pace tonight.

A little late to the game.

Looks like Vegas had us favored by 3.5

A little surprised by that.

Agreed on those tired legs & no Tatum, lets take advantage of this.

Good timeout by Brown. Too many 3's. Sabonis had his man sealed off pretty much under the hoop Ellis just looked at him.

Stuff like that is bs. Used to make me angry too when I played when the guards ignore bigs in good position.

When Fox intentionally fouled a minute ago I was wondering if he'd pick up another one quickly. But this is the sort of challenge Brown should use early when he decides to do so.

Both teams combined are shooting 52% from three. Just crazy.

We really need to stop wasting challenges in the first half.

Over the back on Fox, no call Boston gets another possession.

Starting to get annoyed.

Yeah that was a terrible no call. Totally knocked Fox upside the head.

In hindsight with a little thought, if that was the third foul on Fox then it would of been ok to gamble. But not on his second foul.

I'm going to listen to most of the third on the patio with G man.

Keep an eye on those refs we only shot 2 FT's in the first half.
