Trailblazers (29-23) at Celtics (38-15) Game #53 2/4/18

[KGs Knee]

Yeah, anyone who thinks Horford is overpaid should just shut up, they don't know squat about basketball.

[ChillyWilly]

WINNAH WINNAH CHICKEN DINNAH!

[Neurotic Guy]

It has to be disheartening for the Blazers to lead most of this game and not able to finish v. a team averaging 22 years old (sans Horford).   

A truly clutch and impressive win.   Kyrie and the Marcus' (and Moose) should be ecstatic watching this.

[Snakehead]

Al said Stevens saw the defense and told him to not hand off and take the shot.  It was not an easy shot at all though.  Very nice play.

[Sophomore]

Beat a good team that played hard minus our best player and at least two rotation players (maybe 3, if you count Monroe). Outstanding clutch play down the stretch.

Where’s the Al is overpaid thread???

That thread should be deleted from existence.  Whoever believes that leads me to question if they watch Al play.

And I'd vote to delete the "Any TR fan left?" thread too.

I have probably played that last HORFORD shot 5 times or more. I love watching the reaction of Marcus Smart after the ball went in. Also he was coaching from the side telling Theis to bring his player out by moving out to the three point line.

You have to love this team !!!!!

Okay back to watching that basket another couple of times.

GREAT GAME! Congrats Al

TBF Rozier didnt really play a good game. Good D and and great play at the end though.

I knew when we were down 16 at halftime missing a slew of players that the Blazers were doomed.

[cltc5]

We got this

Leave your TP's on the way out.  Drive safe everyone

[Ogaju]

Just watched it again and CBS is such a cool customer...he was directing traffic on that last play telling Theis with a subtle gesture to pull his man out to the baseline.

[Atzar]

Great, great win.

It’s so hard to beat NBA teams - let alone playoff teams - when you’re as shorthanded as we are right now.  We’re having to rely on kids and fringe NBA players to get it done. 

Major props to Horford for his game tonight.  Props to the whole team for strong defense and just enough offense when it mattered.

True, and I know some here still aren't enamored of Terry, but we are probably well beyond wondering if he has any fans left.

He got a lot better in the second half.  I'll give him his credit for stepping up.  I don't expect him to be consistently doing as much as he was, he just needs to play aggressively and decisively like that overall with more consistency.
