Hawks (0-1) at Celtics (1-0) Round 1 Game 2 4/18/23

[Silas]

Time for some D White.

[jpotter33]

Smart is so much more valuable when he's focused on defense and setting up plays for others as he's been doing since the first quarter.

[Goldstar88]

Murray is tough tonight… Must have read Clays thread. 

[celticinorlando]

Well so much for that big lead

[jpotter33]

Joe, you going to wait until the lead is up again before calling a dang timeout and adjusting the Murray coverage??

[SparzWizard]

Freaking D. Murray is on fire.

[celticinorlando]

Smart playing hero ball

[Silas]

Smart out of control....need White.

[Yuckabuck33]

JB ignores open Smart - nails the 3 in a crowd.

When's the last time you saw Jaylen Brown with that much clock awareness? I wondered why he ignored Smart and then the shot clock buzzer went off and I said "Oh."

[Roy H.]

Smart playing hero ball

Yeah, but he got fouled.

It sucks that Atlanta is right back in it.

[celticinorlando]

Sigh. Same as game one. Get up big and p--- it all away in the third quarter

[SparzWizard]

Welp, there goes the 20-point lead. Stupid Joe and his lack of TO calling.

[jpotter33]

Now you take the timeout, Joe, with over half the lead gone. Idiot.

We clearly started reeling offensively as soon as Tatum went out, but let's just "let them figure it out". 

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

we have depth this year we did not have last year

plus no excuse for timelord or al to be worn out rotate the dude we picked up whats his face. or use griffin also as a role player to rebound and play d. wish we had danilo but oh well.

hope the warriors get knocked out early.

be nice if miami and bucks beat each other up then we face a beat up heat team. bucks are still the best with us and now thjey have khris back

[bello_man09]
