Jerebko should play as much as possible.

[Celtic Fan Forever]

The more Amir and less Sully the better

[alldaboston]

Again. Smart doesn't really foul him. Yet he doesn't get that call on the other side

[bello_man09]

Turner is COOKING!!! they can't hold him.

[Quetzalcoatl]

I feel like this is our strategy:



then we just nudge them over in the 3rd!  Let's go!

The announcers just called Evan Turner the adult in the room, though....

So, about Crowder being untouchable? I understand he's still coming back from injury, but maaannnnnnn he's been nonexistent on either side of the ball.

Dude come on, when Smart comes back from injury, you give him a lot of slack. I mean Crowder has not been the same since he came back dude. It's clear the ankle is bothering him.

McHale played an entire playoffs on a broken foot. We have a guy out with a sore arm and Crowder in witness protection.

Zero slack here. Produce or sit down.

umm crowders' defensive rotations have been horrible since the game before the injury.

[Ogaju]

new day same ole Celtics giving up the early lead.

I am starting the early lead problem is mere product of our inferior roster. The other teams beat us up when we are both at full speed, and we only manage to catch up when the other team takes their feet off the pedal.

[bello_man09]

ATLANTA aint that good.

[jambr380]

Once again .....playoff year #2

Celtics show up to gun fight packing knifes


Fireworks ?

No, to be fair, I think they brought these...

[max215]

Amir!

[Neurotic Guy]

Jonas big opportunity there.

AMIR

[LarBrd33]

Boston never stops fighting.  Gotta respect that.

[Celtic Fan Forever]

And just like that it's 10. Amir and Turner stepping up

I think Stevens has to make Crowder a PF for the rest of the series. Just too limited to defend out on the perimeter against quicker players + too limited offensively to play alongside two big men. It's putting too much pressure on the rest of the players in the lineup.
