Hawks (1-3) at Celtics (3-1) Round 1 Game #5 4/25/23

The refs ALWAYS give aid to the team facing elimination. The Celtics just have to rise above it. Ime had them doing that, and they made it to the Finals. Let's see if Joe can do the same.

Be nice to make a run while Young is on the bench.

Yes the Celtics are up 3-1 in this series but I don’t think they have played well, in particular tatum has been completely average and this series should have been a rather easy sweep…yet here we are struggling…maddening really

If "completely average" for Tatum is 28.5 pts, 9.5 rebounds, 4.3 asts, 1.0 blks, .8 stls per game on 45% 2pfg% and 40% 3pfg%, we're in good hands.

Fair enough. His stats are fine but the eye test tells me he goes long stretches being completely inefficient and useless offensively if his side step 3 isn’t falling

agreed.  can't just go by his numbers -- the eye test says he's not having a good series

Tied!

[slamtheking]

ugh, Al jacking a quick 3. 

[jpotter33]

Got to say, was really hoping we would nab Bey when he was available at the deadline. He'd be an excellent backup wing for us.

[slamtheking]

let's see what the C's can do with this line-up

[letsgoblue86]

Horford been rough this series

[Vermont Green]

2 big line up. Let’s see how they do.

[ozgod]

White too scared of Trae switching in to Timelord thst he left Collins wide open for a 3 on that screen

[slamtheking]

Jaylen's having a great game offensively but he's got butter fingers on the rebounds

[celticinorlando]

Just so lazy on the boards

[jpotter33]

Those offensive rebounds are inexcusable. Bey just stole that right out of JB's hands.

[ozgod]

Horford been rough this series

He was a +17 last game but I agree his shooting been rough

[slamtheking]

NOW WE'RE ROLLING!!
