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

[RJ87]

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.

so basically no different than here lol 

El oh el. TP.

[RJ87]

Jayson is in his bag tonight.

this team looks well rested.

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.

no argument on F&M.  insufferable idiots that don't really care about basketball in general.

Doris is tolerable at times.  it's the Mark Jackson, Reggie Miller, JVG, etc .... bunch of talking heads that constantly slight the C's at almost every opportunity.

G-Will in 13 minutes has 0 points, 1 rebound and 2 fouls. Basically just running around out there lol

[jpotter33]

this team looks well rested.

Yeah, definitely. Tatum in particular looks like he really benefitted from the rest. Being an iron man and hardly ever missing games takes its toll on you.

[Phantom255x]

C's on pace for 150 tonight

[slamtheking]

holy crap -- nice lob by Tatum

[jpotter33]

What a showing from Tatum!

[RJ87]

Can Jaylen just not take stupid, heat check shots when he's cold?

Also, Tatum -> Rob was pretty.

Her favoritism for one team or another is not what makes her insufferable.

It's her voice and her yelling into the mic. She's just awful, whoever she is complimenting.

the reports of rob’s demise were greatly exaggerated.

 

[jpotter33]

Embarrassing play for Sharpe haha

[Phantom255x]

Funnest half of the year hands down 

[slamtheking]

I know it's a blowout but where's the foul call on that?
