Dallas just wanting to give this game away

Boston refusing to take it

I miss post up basketball ala Kevin McHale

If Tatum doesn?t get himself together offensively we?ll lose this series. Dude forgot how to shoot a basketball or how to finish a layup. It?s a joke at this point.

UR NOT KOBE

[keevsnick]

Which happens first: Boston starts hitting threes or Dallas starts hitting FT's?

[SCeltic34]

Tatum shooting 30% from 3 in the playoffs.  Attack.

Tatum playing soft again.. go figure

He can?t take care of the ball or put it in the basket. Biggest game of his career and he comes out with a dud thus far. Embarrassing.

Tatum playing soft again.. go figure

Not true. He?s drawn a few fouls on his drives. They just have cheated him and not given any free throws

Side step threes when you have a mismatch is soft..

What's Tatum's hesitation with the mid-ranges? Fine, you might get hacked inside on a drive and not get it called, the mid range open looks are still there. Take those. Luka has done that too.

It is a tie game. You would think we are down 10-15pts from some of these comments.

They?re very lucky its as close as it is, no one is here saying it?s a mavs blowout and I think the Celtics should eventually snap out of it and win this game but why can?t we talk about how absolutely terrible the team and specifically Tatum are playing?

[Neurotic Guy]

Tie game and it reads here like the Cs are getting smoked.  Jays are distributing well.  No one shooting particularly well. That does happen. 

[celticinorlando]

Our biggest concern all season was how would the Celtics win if they don?t make 3s

[Phantom255x]

Jrue having a good half

[SCeltic34]

Holiday is killing them in the paint.  Keep going there.

[Phantom255x]

White has also cooled off

[SCeltic34]

Jrue, Brown, and Tatum can just blow by their defenders at will.
