Huge offensive rebound to milk some more clock and huge subsequent shot by Posey.

El Capitan really making me nervous out there.  He's been a turnover machine all night, that's the only way we're gonna blow this thing.

I hate small ball!!!!
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Posey got fouled on that last drive. No call. I suspect Prince shoved Paul down, no call and its a 9 point game.

Rondo is not making plays and the ball is not moving enough

Wow. 3 (Dyss?) totally blindsided PP on that transition play. That legal? sure was nasty.

I'm going to scream louder than I ever have before if we lose this game.

Ah they couldn't keep it going and make the first road win easy.  The desperate team has been the one outplaying the other tonight.  That was us in the first half and the Pistons in this fourth quarter.  Keep your heads straight boys and close this one out.

My God are we ever going to get a call in the fourth quarter of any playoff game???

I`m screaming Sam Cassell for the last 5 minutes.

The Pistons went back to put pressure on the ball handler, and that`s exactly why we have Sam.

Gosh...
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

I didn't see Rondo in the first half, but in second he has been poor

I don't want Pierce bringing the ball up against this zone trap.  He is our worst player creating and passing off of double teams.  We're lucky it hasn't burned us more than it already has.  Keep the ball in Rondo's hands, get it to KG in the middle and attack from there.  Basketball 101.
