Celtics (28-7) at Pacers (20-15) Game #36 1/8/24

Can the C's get anything other than a Tatum or Brown ISO in these games that come down to the wire? Stop icing out White and KP

[keevsnick]

Look, one of those two end of game calls has to go the c's way. Jaylen gets hit in the back of the head, but that gets overturned. Well maybe you can argue that since he hit the ball as well that negates the contact? But if thats the case then the KP foul isn't a foul, because he also got ball. So which is it? Both of those calls can't logically go the way they did.

All that said, C's lost this one by not getting any stops in the 3rd and missing 9 ft's. Blew it.

Well, these things happen. On to the next one.

Missed the game was just checking the score who’s the pinata for tonight? Is there anything we can blame Joe for? Or JB?

Brown had a great look on a mid-range shot in his wheelhouse thought, just missed it.

[Vermont Green]

Another close game, another opportunity for Joe to blow a late game obvious timeout call by sitting on his hands, which we don’t even get a shot off. Great job, great  effort. 🙄

Joke coach.

I couldn’t watch the game. Followed along on my phone. When should Mazzula have called the time out?  When we got the ball with 12 seconds left?

[kraidstar]

Even by NBA standards that finish was a disgrace. Nothing would make me happier than to see Silver and his thugs do down for this some day.

First, Joe once again doesn’t call a time out. It was obvious play was going nowhere.
Second, Brown got hit in the head
Third, really dumb foul by Porzingis. He’s 7’3 or whatever, just put your arms up.
Forth, why don’t they look an see how much time is ob the clock? Looked like .5 when Horford got rebound.
Fifth, Kornet sucks

[scaryjerry]

Can’t call the cheap foul on porzingis after blowing the review on the clear foul on the brown play…like really?

[hpantazo]

The Celtics shouldn't have let up after Haliburton went down though. The Pacers raised their effort and we didn't match it until late.

Why review replays when you cant review them correctly. We got hosed.

That would be my first choice, or with 5 or 6, when anyone watching could see the play was going nowhere.
Only difference tonight was it was Brown going ISO instead of Tatum

[Yuckabuck33]

I could understand getting a call wrong, but not when you can look at a replay.

Ultimately its our fault because we should've hit more FT..

However the end of that game can only make one wonder if Vegas needed a little help....

Replay don't mean anything. Last season we played the Warriors. We're up by 3. Klay goes for a 3, Horford called for a foul. Call is challenged. The best angle shows Al is 6 inches away, shown by NBCSB. Call stands anyway. Warriors tie and win in overtime.
And the last 2 minute report? Said it was correct and links to video of the worst angle where you can't tell.

There's no way in hell the L2M report is going to tell the truth.

[hpantazo]

Porzingis with a team high 7 assists tonight.

Mazzulla looked like he wanted to karate chop the refs in his postgame presser

[86MaxwellSmart]

Refs STOLE this game from us....What a bunch of losers....C'mon man Brown gets hit in the head and they Overturn the No Call. Everyone saw him get hit in the head except the Refs???
