Wow, the last 2 minutes of tonight's game was unbearable

[gpap]

I mean you know OKC is going to win, yet timeout after timeout was called, and foul after foul was made.

Just awful and drives you nuts.

I really wish the NBA would consider doing something about preventing the last two minutes of a game from taking SOOOOO freakin long!!

Turn off the TV. That's something you could do.

I actually enjoyed how they fought til the end.

OKC got almost every call too---How the hell they called KO for traveling with about 2 minutes to go--? On the way to the hoop, he picked up his dribble, and took 2 steps(PERFECTLY LEGAL)---and yet that ref calls a phantom traveling.....we were only down 5 at that point--might have been down 3 or less---but that call ended it for us.

Agreed

If you are so confident that you know what's going to happen, why are you compelled to continue watching? I think you're just frustrated we didn't pull off a miracle victory.

What was unbearable was the refs.

DVR helps.

I agree....it was unbearable.  I DVR'd most of the game, but caught up to the live action at the 5 minute mark of the 4th quarter.  The last 2 minutes dragged on and on.  Finally shut the TV off with 25 seconds to go.  The C's were down by 8 or so.  Didn't think a comeback was realistic.  Plus, the game was being recorded.  So, I could have watched it later had there been a major turnaround.

I am not talking about how they fought.

I am just talking about the interruptions by the timeouts, unnecessary fouls, etc.

Unfortunately, the Celts turnovers didn't help.

As soon as Smart left at the end of the 3rd with his 4th foul it was all down hill. Brad waited too long to bring him back in the 4th and by then we were down 15. Smart really is that difference maker.

 It's more than that,  Pressey is just that much of  a liability.

Pressey isn't good. He's too small, too timid, can't shoot. He's like a smaller DJ Augustine with no jumper.

Pressey was jacking bad 3s. Olynyk box score looks good, but in reality he still looks lost and his defense is terrible. Cs seem to have a bunch of bad turnovers last night as well.

I almost never watch games live anymore. For one, I just don't have time. Secondly, the commercial breaks, timeouts and replays can be excruciatingly painful when you just want to get back to action.

I skip all commercials, halftime and a lot of 20 second timeouts and replays. It helps.

The only thing I miss out on is the social media aspect. I can't check twitter until the game is over. But it's worth it for me.

Stretch out the last few minutes of the game is like a drill, for when it really is applicable. The C's did a nice job not surrendering.
