Grizzlies (20-12) at Celtics (18-13) Game #32 12/27/16

That is a terrible call. That's good D by KO.

Pretty much. Kelly went straight up and got knocked backwards by the offensive player.   It's either an offensive foul or no call.

Yeah, it's like Gorman said - if that's a foul, then you simply can't play defense there.

I feel the same thing can be said about many of the fouls called for the Hardens and Westbrooks of the league.

Bird would average like 40 a game easy with all the cheap touch fouls and ticky tacky calls...

[Clench123]

Stop putting them on the line

[hpantazo]

Big 3 by Hordord to stop that run. Gotta close the half up by double digits, dont blow the lead going into half time

Quite possibly. Bird was so much smarter than just about everyone else, and crafty with his dribble he could throw off any defender enough to draw contact. He'd average 15 on just free throws alone. Add in the increased emphasis on the three-point shot and Bird might very well be even better in today's NBA than he was in the 80's.

Bradley truly deserves some All-Star consideration. He's been super lately.

[KGs Knee]

Horford getting it going now

Yeah, it would be crazy to guard Bird if you couldn't touch him.

[SCeltic34]

Nice aggression by Al.  He's a fantastic facilitator but I don't think anyone is going to complain if he looks for his own shots more often.

[liam]

I love listening to Tommy and Mike!

[jpotter33]

Ugghh, come on, IT. You have to be better than that. Cost us a double-digit lead going into halftime with two consecutive turnovers.

Our turnovers have been hurting us lately.

[max215]

This team loves messing up the ends of quarters.

[Monkhouse]

Ugly, ugly, IT hero ball offense...

[Ilikesports17]

Wasn't able to watch the first half.

Looks like Brad is calling on Gerald, inneficient(but maybe still helpful)smart is back, an Amir is rebounding well.

Anything else worth noting?

KO solid on boards. 5 pts and 5 rbs so far

[bello_man09]

Amir 9 rebounds he gets like 4 a game.
