Celtics (2-0) at Wizards (0-2) Round 2 Game 3 5/3/17

spacing is useless if shots are not falling. they can play off and wait for dribble drives and collapse. WE NEED A DOMINANT BIG DOWN LOW. been saying this since doc rivers.

Can't add a player in the playoffs. We'll just have to play who we have.

Goodnight Celtics nation...see you for game four..we cant win them all.

bad game from the Cs, but I am really hoping the chippiness in tonight's game lights a fire under us, I really want to steal a game before heading back to Boston for game 5

no worries guys............EARLY LEADS ARE MEANINGLESS!!!!!!!! remember? lol

[jpotter33]

Well, that was disappointing, though not entirely unexpected.

It'll be interesting to see how Brad and the guys adjust for Game 4. I thought we'd steal one in Washington, and I still do. But we just simply can't spot them that big lead to start off, and we HAVE to start off from the get-go playing our defense.

Get game four. That embarrassing performance and the wiz acting like Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. bags should focus them

AGREED!!!!!!  i am talking next year. sorry for not clarifying!

All these suggestions on who to play and start next game tells you who has the player advantage (despite the 2-1 lead).

I actually see this as the opposite. We are up 2-1 despite not yet finsing the right fifth man. To me its jj or brown and ive been saying that since the chicago series.

This was a MUST win for the bullets....not for us---and it showed.

we need it to kep momentum and have a shot at closing out in 5 at home.

That could actually catch them off guard next game. They can be cocky as long as they want and underestimate this team. That will be their short-coming.

Yep, totally agree with all of this.

And I like that perspective better: we're still up 2-1, even though we've yet to put together a complete game (or even really more than half a game) or found that fifth starter.

yep we all said that. no excuses but this was the game where us getting blown out really was not a surprise. not defending our crappy starts or finish just saying
