Welp, I'm not going to even attempt to watch the halftime show. It's just going to tick me off listening to Rose all over this Wizards team just because they're hot right now, which is his MO.

Welp. That was like passing a kidney stone

[Chief]

can someone sum up what happened?  I've just realized my directv package/sportspack doesn't include ESPN.  trying to stream it but it just continues to buffer

I'd like to know too.  Just tuning in, looks like an abortion with lots of angry people involved.

Pretty much the same as the last two games. CBS hasn't found a starting lineup to match theirs yet. Difference is the home court. No crowd to give the team that extra boost.

Imagine 1996-97, starting lineup Pervis, Fox, Walker, Wesley and Williams and ML Carr at the helm. This was our first half!

Celtics not hitting 3s well, and they are down big.

Defense could be a lot better too, but lack of offense is the biggest problem right now IMHO.

Most of Wizard's points came off from mismatches and open looks. The deficit could have been bearable if they didn't let Wizards shoot over 50%

Wizards defense looks a step faster breaking up our action, they've been doing their homework I'd say.    Their role players all helping on offense too, Porter can't miss.

Haha! I think that might be less painful but not by much.

The Celtics really need to get a bruiser somehow by next season.

They can't keep letting the Gortat's and Lopez's of the world dominate them.

I have had 2 kidney stones, it wasn't as bad as the stones, not even close.  Those are like a man giving birth.

But we looked horrible.  I think we better show some fight in the 2nd half or game 4 is going to be that much harder.

[jpotter33]

Oh my God, Rose just said that Olynyk flopped on that Oubre tackle.... How effing stupid can you be?? He ran full speed into him!

Why is Wizards playing a meme song at the half time

When we can't hide IT on someone on D we are going to pay the price.  It happened over and over again in the 1st half.

Meanwhile, the Red Sox are currently getting torched by Baltimore.

GREAT NIGHT!

CJ McCollum is the most professional and insightful guy on the halftime show. I know that he's quite interested in journalism, but that is both a credit to CJ and pretty embarrassing for ESPN.
