Nets (31-19) at Celtics (36-15) Game #52 2/1/23

with the team playing so well, would like to see hauser get some meaningful time to get his confidence back.

[slamtheking]

just curious -- for those watching the national broadcast, what could they possibly be talking about since they don't talk about the Celtics unless they're doing poorly?

This is such a false narrative. Of course national media talks about the Celtics. Doris Burke is an announcer tonight. And she raves - and I mean, RAVES - about Jaylen Brown constantly. She also hypes up Marcus Smart a lot.

If anything, local media is a lot more dismissive of the Celtics than national pundits.

have to disagree on the national bit -- when I've been stuck with only the national crews on TNT or ABC, they are rarely positive about the Celtics and most frequently discussing the other team.   always bugs the hell out of me.

Grant has really come back down to Earth, huh?

It's disappointing. Outside of the corner 3s (when open) he's really not useful in any other area nowadays

hoping to see the end of the bench get most of the 4th quarter minutes

Lebron not getting the foul call the other night

[Phantom255x]

Meanwhile, PHI only up 3 against ORL. Maybe ORL can help us out again lol

[jpotter33]

Come on, JB. What is going on with you and the free throws?

[SCeltic34]

Come on guys.  Bad quarter so far.

[Phantom255x]

I mean don't get me wrong it's a big lead, but don't let BKN get to halftime down less than 20...

thanks - doesn't surprise me.

[celticinorlando]

Second quarter going through the motions. I know it’s hard to maintain a large lead but just no resistance on defense and no movement on offense

[Mahk E Mahk]

his ft shooting has always been suspect.

[Silas]

Bench Grant for the rest of the half.  He sucks tonight.  Time to try Sam again.

We can agree to disagree. As I said, I think Felger and Mazz - the biggest local Boston sports guys - are frequently hostile about this team win or lose. They've tapped into that loud mouth, incel demographic and fans don't call it out enough. But god forbid Doris Burke compliments one of our players and then compliments a player on another team, then she's insufferable.
