It feels so good that the NBA as a whole is now recognizing how essential Smart is to our success and how elite of a player he is, even if he doesn't score 20 points a game.

This is our 3rd ECF in 4 years... Not bad.

But as Jim Morrison once said... time to break on through to the other side!

Amen to that! 🎼🎼🎼🎼

At the end of the day, the DEFENSE was absolutely clutch!

HUGE shoutout to Grant Williams. Even after the missed FTs he redeemed himself, and played great 4th quarter minutes

ABSOLUTELY WELL PLAYED GWILL !

And we get THIS GUY back next series



This is huge. Our bench becomes a whole lot deeper just having Smart in it and Hayward playing with them.

Correct me if Im wrong, but is this the first game 7 win of this iteration of Celtics?

Only one team has been in the conference championship series more times than the Celtics in the last 20 years, do you know which team?
The mighty Spurs

Haha. You got it.

Were you listening to Grande pregame?
No, someone mentioned it here. Maybe you?

couldn't have asked for a better anniversary gift today -- other than my wife leaving me in peace to watch the game tonight.

Marcus Smart cut from the same cloth as Havlicek, Silas, Maxwell and Garnett.
The Four Celtic Generals:
Russell - Cowens - Bird - Garnett

The Four Celtic Lieutenants:
Cousy - Havlicek - McHale - Pierce

THAT'S THE SERIES BOYS!! And GWill misses two free throws to ice the game but gets the block to save it for us!

I dunno. I know the clock says 0 and the lead is 5 but I have a feeling the Raptors can still make a comeback!


A lot will be said about the difference between Tatum and Siakam and how bad Siakam played. But a lot of that has to do with the DEFENSE of Jaylen Brown. He was huge this series despite some bad shooting games and bad lapses.
Maybe Nurse can bully the refs into adding an extra minute to the clock

Might just be biased, but Theis gets called for a lot of light contact... nowhere near the level of other NBA players.
