Celtics (1-0) at Warriors (0-1) The Finals Game #2 6/5/22

Rest up for a few days, regroup and bring the energy in front of the home crowd Wednesday. This game sucked but I’m feeling good overall about our chances this series

Here it is..We win Wed and lose Friday and win Game 5 and lose next in Boston and win 7 in Cali

We win 3 on road again..that is what I see now…if we learned anything, it wont be easy but in the end, 18 is ours

Jesus dude, do you want me to head to an early grave 

THANK U!

WIN YOUR HOME GAMES AND WE WIN THIS SWRIES

we do not need to win another game in SAN FRAN

IF WE IN OUR HOME GAMES like we used to do in old days

when the garden gave us usually, most of the time a HUGE ADVANTAGE

Truth be told, I don't think they can win a Game 7 on the road this time around. They could split at home, then win Games 5 + 6. But boy, they better win Games 5 and 6, or simply win all their remaining home games this series. Setting yourself up for a road Game 7 is not ideal here.

i agree 100%

another game 7 on road?

nah two in milwaukee (where we could not win 1 game in 2018) and then 3 in miami is nuts. just not sustainable. enough already.

we do not want to even be in that spot again. unless we came back from being down 3-0 or 3-1 or something. win our home games and end this in 6.

I definitely think Boston is capable of taking one more on the road. Asking them to take the last two at Golden State though is tough. There's no excuse though for not taking 2 of the next 3 at Boston. If they happen to like drop Games 3 + 4 (or even just one of 3 + 4, but also lose Game 6) then that's just... yikes

The format is 2-2-1-1-1 now I believe.

i liked the old 2-3-2 format

Draymond BOWLS over Grant for the obvious Offensive foul....NOPE it's a foul on Grant----!
Brown never touches Payton on his blown layup----FOUL on Jaylen to send him to the bench when he was cooking.

C's got frustrated and lost focus---GSW knows this and took advantage.

[JSD]

At the end of the day the Celtics did their job, they stole home court.


I really hope they use this opportunity as a wake up call. We shouldn’t hear about anything other than game planning and focus coming from them. They got cocky and distracted

To put into some perspective, the Warriors went on a 25-2 run in the 3rd and into the early 4th.

That’s even worse than the 3rd we had against Miami Game 1. Somehow they did even worse than that which is inconceivable

Format was changed back to 2-2-1-1-1 some years back.
That ridiculous 2-3-2 setup cost us at least one title, maybe two.
A David Stern special after his beloved Lakers lost to Bird & Co. in 1984.

meh

we had the 2010 series and blew it albeit the refs robbed us in game 7

Draymond might be a total butt nugget, but he was spot on with assessment after Game 1.  14 of 23 on 3’s from Horford, Smart and White would be hard to replicate.  Just didn’t figure on a complete no show from Al and Marcus.

Take the split and head home!

we simply cannot give up double digit runs much less 25 to 2? that is insane. we just have no clue how to stop melting. get to foul line. do whatever it takes. we just seem to bleed out and then the game is over

Just re-watched some of those Marcus Smart turnovers....Wow, he just gave the ball away tonight. Just stupid passes into traffic with no open man to pass it to---C'mon man, NBA is rigged with all of this betting going on under Adam Silver.

What, you didnt like the no look bounce pass into the paint to absolutely NO ONE and the ensuing stare down at Tatum like he shouldve been 10 feet to the left? LOL

Yeah Smart had a few of those where he threw it at least 5 feet ahead of the guy

He was about six feet ahead on his timing for laying the passes out ahead of the cutters.  Terrible night for Marcus.

He also made some really weird defensive blunders. Needs to pull his head out of wherever it is currently located

We still shot really well from three. I actually think we failed to capitalise on the way Golden State was collapsing on our attacks. We saw Tatum/Smart/Brown/Horford get swallowed up time and again

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

we failed to capitalize on many things including size advantage

How im feeling too. This game sucked to watch but if you wouldve told me before the series we would steal a game in San Fran i would take it. Just gotta utilize the home crowd and put together 2 good efforts in a row

[trickybilly]

Is it just me or does Grant look a little lost at the moment?

[colincb]

I thought we got punked by Green with an assist from the refs.
