Thunder (53-12) at Celtics (47-18) Game #66 3/12/25

Lu Dort... are we serious

[Phantom255x]

It's still mindboggling to me that the C's never get any "hometown calls". It's always the opposition even if it's a bad team.

[Silas]

Lookin good after the slow start.

[Phantom255x]

There we go JT!

Yeah, every game and Scal is saying White was fouled? Can we get rid of Scal? SGA grabs and pushes every time he has the ball...

Finally Tatum gets one to go. Though he's been great at playmaking and setting others up so far with 4 assists for 12 generated points. They're really collapsing on him and putting a lot of defensive attention towards him, so he needs to continue to take advantage of that.

That said, we do know that we can shoot something other than threes, right? Hopefully we start attacking more once OKC overreacts to the threes and plays tighter.

[Who]

Crazy stats

OKC = 16 of 21 points are in the paint
BOS = 21 of 22 points are from 3

[jpotter33]

Hate that flopping/screaming SGA. Luke is straight up there, but little SGA just screams and gets the call.

[Phantom255x]

Don't think we could have started much worse and it's tied. White and Horford saved us big time with those 3s. Now lets keep it going

SGA pushes Tatum and gets a call. SGA owns the refs!

[Silas]

Please come to Boston and the refs will love you.

[Phantom255x]

SGA and Brunson are the new Harden and Lebron of this era in terms of flopping/FTs

[jpotter33]

Love watching Dort just ignore screens and not allow the switch. We HAVE to set good screens and force those switches if that's what we want.

[liam]

Getting to the line isn't a skill; it's bad reffing.

Arenas had a theory that Trae Young should stay small because he gets more calls at his thin size. Arenas thought he got less calls than he should have because he was a big PG at 6-3 210lbs. That he should have played lighter and he would have gotten more FTs.

Contact is more accentuated when you get hit when you are smaller thinner player. That was Arenas' theory.
