Warriors (1-1) at Celtics (1-1) Finals Game #3 6/8/22

[kraidstar]

Go figure, the refs let us play and we don't turn the ball over, and we win by double digits

What a concept!

Also I can't believe I'm saying this, but while there were definitely a few iffy calls here or there, somehow Foster might not even be the worst ref in the league. He might even be one of the better ones now. The games actually flow better overall with him and for the most part they let them play. Same with Marc Davis

A complete 180 from that doofus Zarba and Brothers 

There was definitely more flow. The game got very physical in the second half. Refs swallowed the whistles and we got knocked back a step.  But then we adjusted and hit them in the mouth.

definitely a better-officiated game.  a few questionable calls but not the inexcusable mess of game 2

Yep. And i thought the calls went both ways. There was some flopping, some muscling on rebounds, but neither team was favored.

Love how they let that scrum play out where 5 guys were fighting for the ball.

Let the players decide!

Btw am I the only one not that impressed with Poole? We all know how great he can be when he shoots well but I mean, does he do anything else well?? Not really a good ballhandler either and definitely not a good defender. Kind of gives me Duncan Robinson vibes. He'll get a big contract after a great season where he also shot well but when he's not shooting well like Games 1 + 3, he's a complete liability.

He wilts under physical pressure and is incredibly streaky. He is young though, but man his defence is bad

Curry, Klay, and Wiggins all played well tonight and we still wupped them. The Warriors have got to be rattled.

we wont see curry and klay play this well again in the same game right??

Even if we do, I find it hard to believe they can do it more than once more. Everyone was wondering when Klay would go off and he did tonight, and they still lost by 16. Curry had 31, Klay 25, Wiggins 18. I hear some people saying Wiggins could do a bit more but I mean, Wiggins is not someone who typically goes for 25+ every game. He's been doing well this series for the most part and has been solid on defense. It's not like he's struggling.

He's a frontrunner. Pritchard could do the same or better if he played with GSW with their style of 3 pt play. Poole frankly sucks when being defended. If it's just run down and shoot an open 3 he's great.

Yep. And yeah he gets cooked on defense. I guess it's fine when he's shooting lights out like Game 2 but you can't rely on that every game either.

D. Green at the podium….this is always an um interesting take.

[JSD]

With this particular matchup, the result of the officials calling the game even somewhat even will always be a Celtics’ double digit win.

[nickagneta]

I don’t think it’s talked about enough that we have a 1st year head coach leading this team with poise. Regardless of outcome this guy is one heck of a coach!

Oh there is definitely a thread all about Ime and how good he is. Just ignore the first 20 pages of the thread.

Lol Perkins on Twitter saying Draymond prepped more for his postgame presser and podcast than the game tonight. Truly tragic 

[tenn_smoothie]

Watching Green's post-game. This guy is an incredible ass.

[hodgy03038]

Game 1 and 3 refs were great. Please keep Zarba & Brothers on a break.

[Phantom255x]

I still hope someone decks Draymond in Game 4. You know he'll be on a mission, but I hope the C's fight back. Maybe have Timelord just drive and basically plow over him even if it results in a charge lol

Yeah, on NBC Boston Postgame he is speaking with pure contempt.

Perk is wishing he was 10 years younger so he could get on the court and take care of Draymond personally. And i believe he would.
