If Jeff Green wins this game for the Cavs I am going to barf, eat it, and barf it up again.

If Green wins this for Cleveland, I may have to turn in my Celtics fan card.

Next year this will not happen. Love these young guys but they play stupid at times. If LeBron gets going it’s going to cost them dearly tonight.

LETS KEEP SHOOTING THREES GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

complain about that 3.  just keep complaining. oh know you won't, cause he made it. 
but I will.  he's in love with the 3 tonight when he's bricking them.  needs to drive to the basket

They aren't contested shots, they are open shots. They are just not falling. 

don't care.  if they're not falling, you don't keep chucking them - you drive to the basket or work yourself in closer to get an easier shot you can/will make.
You're giving no credit to the Cavs interior defense. Its not easy for the C's to score driving to the basket because of Thompson, LeBron etc.  They're contesting everything and I would expect the refs to continue to let them.  Celtics need to continue to shoot the 3 and make them to win.


We've been eating them alive inside so far. It's when we kick it back out that we're not making them pay. Those threes have to start falling at some point though.

Hmmm let’s pray they do.

honestly I saw (1) 3 point shot that Jaylen took way early in the shot clock and seemed like a cop out.  Most of his other 3's have been in rhythm, within the offense.  He just hasn't hit them.  That said, if we get the right matchup, Jaylen should be taking it to the rim.  Stack up the fouls on them and get into the bonus.

Referees affect game in so many ways...Brown started aggressively he got hammered but no call..so he starts chucking threes....Refs influence.

Jaylen is 3-11 and 2-8 from three. Yeah, that's not good shot selection. We better come out and punch them in the mouth at the half, because up 4 points is a very shaky cushion.

I disagree. he's been getting some pretty good looks, that last one was open by at least 10 feet. He may not be hitting but if you take high percentage shots eventually they start falling. keep shooting Jaylen.

Aaaah, a voice of reason.

Uh, no. Unless you're either (a) Curry/Thompson or one of the elite three point shooters in the league, or (b) hot that particular game, having 8 out of your 11 first half field goals be three pointers and only making two of them is bad shot selection. Now he did have a a couple of open baseline threes, which I'm fine with him taking every time; however, at least half of those were wing/above-the-break threes, which are not always good shots, especially when you're as off tonight as Brown is.

No, 2 or 3 were from the corners, and an additional two were so wide open you have to take them. He really only took one off the dribble above the break three. Those were good shots. If you showed me nothing but a freeze frame of the moment he released the shot I'd say he made 4 or 5 of them. He didn't. It happens. Keep shooting and those will fall.

Terry and Jaylen probably cannot shoot worse, my concern is they need an 8-10 point lead to ensure Lebron cannot win the game on his own.

Brown needs to work inside out

Go to the rim.

exactly, lets get a couple easy shots and then open it up with the 3 ball within the rhythm of the offense

How about we just keep wearing them out in the post until they find a way to stop it? No threes.

And they were the Celtics 2 best players in Game 6

Big Al and Tatum will have to carry us tonight, although it'd be nice if Rozier and Brown could contribute more. Need a Scary Terry clinic in the 2nd half.
