I think how we come out in this quarter will determine the series. If we don't come out and grab this game by the balls and take control, I don't think we win the series, let alone a game or two to make it respectable.

Not s good matchup for IT. He can't guard Rondo. Brad needs to realize this and keep Smart on him.


The PG situation doesn't get easier from here should we advance... Wall/Lowry/Irving.

I'm more concerned about a sweep right right now, though.

Exactly. Boston losing both games at home is an embarrassment
there was an injury excuse the previous 2 years for the early exits.  no excuse like that this year.

Tonight is at least partially on Brad.  He needs to make big boy adjustments or we are looking at 0-2 and we are pretty much cooked.  With the exception of Smart, we have no one on our team that has any playoff balls.
Not Brad's fault  Players aren't performing. And their bench has sucked since February.

I don't care what anybody tells me this is completely on DANNY F4cking AINGE. He didn't build a suitable bench, supporting cast, or frontcourt to compete.  Our best bench player? Marcus Smart. Best bench scorer? Olynyk. Our next best Frontcourt besides Horford? ....................

There's the adjustment.  I'm not sure Zeller is truly the answer, but a few good plays there.

And Lopez making these shots is a bad omen.  Indicative of how this series has gone so far.

Need to get Horford more involved in the offense.  Only 3 shot attempts, and one was because the clock was running out.  He's too good in the post to have such few attempts.

So is brads second adjustment spreading floor and giving al ball on high post.  He can beat Lopez off dribble and that takes Lopez out of rebounding position ?
