Looks like Kelly ate his spinach today.

When he plays well, the Celtics usually do 2

IT's decision-making has been p----poor this first half. He has to be better in the second round where we can ill-afford those types of missed possessions. 0-5 on threes, all of which have been ill-advised, pull-up, or transition threes, and a TO from forcing it.

He's also leading the team in assists with 5 (most of which were on 3s). He needs to stop with the threes, but he hasn't been all bad out there
I'm bitter.

Butler changed pivot foot.

Butler has two pivot feet!

He is a Butler after all.

I hope he brings both pivot feet with him to Boston!

Gotta be Crunch berries. Don't you remember how ripped the monsters git eating them in the video game that came in Captain Crunch boxes like 15 years ago?

How much does Butler really thread the needle for us?

His price will also be real high I imagine (2017 Nets Pick, Bradley, 2 of Smart/Crowder/Brown).

  • GOT IT!!!
FYI: the NBA needs to change that rule that Butler got 3 shots from earlier. What was Rozier to do when he turns and immediately gets bumped into Butler? Those are cheap tricks that I hate watching.

Yeah, if we were going to pay that he'd already be a Celtic!

I respect Butler's toughness. Gimpy knee and that side injury a few minutes ago and he is back out there fighting. He has Celtics character for sure.

And that's what irks me the most - he knows what works. He's done it (made good decisions and not forced shots) in multiple games this year when his shot has been off. But in this series it seems like he'll make one good play and then follow it straight up with two forced possessions, specifically ill-advised pull-up threes or forced drives to the paint with several defenders in there.

It's like he's still learning how to be a point guard.

IT need to stop comiting 8 second violations. We're lucky the refs aren't calling them
