Kinda feels like we gave them our best shot and it's still a single digit lead

Clearly it was in the game plan to sloooow this game down.  I mean, there have been countless times in this half where whomever has the ball barely brings it past half court before the 8 second backcourt violation.

Atlanta is showing though, this game is far from over...all of that work to get a 20pt lead, and the Hawks may have it under 10 by halftime.  I've unfortunately lost almost all faith in Jae Crowder on offense until he shows me otherwise...combination of the ankle plus just being in a terrible shooting slump, the dude can't hit the ocean right now.

Yeah, it seemed before the shot.

Turner has been in a pretty terrible shooting slump, too. That would've been automatic during the season.

What a way to end the half.  Don't go for the jumper when you can get near the rim.  Really smart by IT.

good first half. the celtics played over their heads, which is fine with me.

atlanta is a good team. like the celtics they dont roll over when down. should be a fun fun fun second half.  ;D

Not feeling great, but certainly better than it felt at halftime in Atlanta.  C's could easily lose control of this one.  Need to come out hot in the third

In the areas where Turner has been automatic with his jumpshot, he's suddenly not automatic at all.  That, with Crowder not being able to hit the ocean, what's a 12pt lead should be at least an 18-20pt lead.  If I'm Atlanta, I'm ecstatic to only be down by 12.
