Celtics (46-21) at Hawks (34-33) Game #68 3/11/23

[Celtics2021]

Good win and way to start the road trip off right! Now let's hope for a Milwaukee loss tonight, too!

Good start to the 2nd half! Warriors now up 10

Jeez, Bucks are tough. Holding onto a 5pt lead at Chase Center.

And then Steph with a personal 11-3 run to tie it.

The Bucks defense on Curry in the last 2 minutes and overtime reminds me of our defense against him in the finals.  Going under screens leaving a big on him.

Yeah the commentators were saying it too, but it's not like Brook Lopez and Portis can realistically do anything in those situations. Curry will just torch them even with drives inside with no resistance behind the centers. Holiday actually played awesome defense on him all night, but Curry is just Curry

It wasn't even the Celtics and that game gave me a heart attack

Watching GS and Milwaukee without Giannis makes me wonder why people think the Celtics are the best team. They’re not.

We have a million data points to make a million different conclusions. At some point, the eye test has to matter.

Smart shaving points once again.

Glad Blake played. He plays intelligent BB, unlike Grant, Smart and Jaylen (He loses the ball almost every time he dribbles into the paint nowadays).

A win is a win especially on the road

I think Young kicked Smart in the groin area on the shot and this made Smart made.   Young  flailed his foot up on purpose to hit Smart.

I’m not sure if Young did it on purpose, but I know I’ve seen the Celtics get called for flagrant fouls while driving to the basket and their elbow catches an opponent in the head while going up for a shot.  I’m not sure how flailing your leg out behind you as you shoot isn’t ruled a similarly dangerous play.

Last night he had one turnover and seven assists. He turns it over more than I would like, but last night wasn’t an example.

Smart had 6 assists and 2 TOs 11 pts on 12 shots 0 steals and 1 blk a -6

White had 7 assists and 0 TOs  18 pts on 10 shots 1 steal and 1 blk a +9

He was clearly referring to Jaylen, which is why he bolded that part.

Looked like he started it by talking about Smart. Smart is the first word.

I think it’s probably the kind of thing that will eventually get looked at, but hasn’t yet. Much like the unnatural jump shot offensive fouls
