what a terrible beginning to the qtr.  no problem.  time to bounce back!
Bouncing back seems to take us all the way to down 4. Unfortunately, when you're down 4, the other team gets the win -- and it appears that our guys haven't gotten the memo on this.

this team has killed its own momentum everytime its starts maing a run. poor shot selection and bonehedaded plays. We need to get soemone in there that going to make some offense happen and it would help if perk would lean into dwight when he goes up for the layup.
Back to wanting Joe fired.

I've been very proud of this team at many points throughout this playoff run with all the injuries.  However they just didn't come to play in a game 7 at home, hard to swallow that one.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

we still in it till that clock says zero..

Well said, glad not everyone is a quitter on this board.  Actually its only a select few that give up, most posters are good about sticking with this team until the end.

Yup

That is as bad a 90 seconds of professional basketball as you're going to want to see.

Good Lord, this game is just horrifing to watch.

I haven“t heard the fat lady sing, yet.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

Yeah fact is, the Magic just played better tonight.  Made fewer mistakes.  Played just that much better on offense, and that much better on defense.

They killed any momentum we've ever had.

Fact is, Ray showed up.  Great.  About 7 games too late.  And when he does show up, Pierce is nowhere to be found.

Has anyone ever noticed that the NBA is a game of runs?
