I'm so happy right now.

[Celtics18]

Man, these guys just keep making memories.  I love this team.  Go get 'em on Thursday!!!

Yup. I might be off a bit here, but here's what Screamin' A had to say:

"We're the people who choked, thinking this Celtics team didn't have the will to compete. Healthy, this team is the clear favorite having steamrolled the Heat in the regular season."

Yep. Magic and JB apologized as well for underestimating the team with the heart of the champions.

Chris Broussard just straight up flip flopped. 



When the Truth shot that 3 in Lebron's face, and when I saw KG focusing on those free throws I knew they would go in as the ball left their hands.

With about 1:20 remaining in the 4th quarter, Wade down on his belly, looked up at the ref, and literally wailed like a baby after not getting a call. I knew we won the game mentally already.

But personally the thing I liked the most was the out of bounds call change from on Rondo to Haslem. Rondo didn't lose his cool and politely asked the refs to review the replay. If he didn't do anything, or if he had lost his temper the game would have flowed in a completely different rhythm. So proud of Rondo. So proud of the Celtics.

It blows my mind.

It blows my mind.

I'll bet.

I'm thrilled about the win as well, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.  In 2009 we were up 3-2 against Orlando and choked the next two games.   In 2010 we were up 3-2 against the Lakers in the finals and choked the next two games.  Miami still pretty much has control of this series.  Thrilled we pushed them to 7, though.

Agree, (TP) ... awesome win, but we need to look no farther than game six, the rest will take care of itself, (if we get there).

The positive thing, IMO, is the fact that we've yet to put together an entirely "good" game.

The first three quarters tonight were just plain horrendous, yet we still dug out the win ... I'm still waiting for that "good" game, (and we're due).

They've done it before this season, more than once, so I know it's possible. Here's hoping it arrives on Thursday.

But no counting those chickens ... they're still in the incubator.

This all because Rondo and KG have buddy'd up.

  We could still lose, but Miami hasn't been in control of the series since game 1.

So happy and so proud of this team. Man we got the heart of the champion!

Kid-spoelstra said it right. Those guys have championship DNA where we wanna get to, to bad they are not getting there this year

Take game 6 and I'll remember this one for ever.

CELTICS FOR LIFEEEE

No.

[Celtics4ever]

We are not out of the woods yet.   I think that the NBA has backed off their refs some.  Keep on them or else they will come back on us.  Pressure on them is the key.

We'd had a blow out if our shots were falling.  This team is gritty and has the capacity to win ugly.  

One could see the pressure on LeBron and him passing up shots in the fourth.   He was spectacular early and vanished late.  It will be growing on him.

You have every reason to be happy.   The C's won!

Found it! I guess someone else was thinking the same thing

[Prof. Clutch]

Keep up the RP, it's working just fine. If you ever say you believe in the Celtics, I expect the mods to ban you
