I wouldn’t mind this being the Finals matchup, tbh

Me neither. We match-up much better with Houston than GS.

Not so much defensively but hey! C's leading.

[Neurotic Guy]

Can't complain about that first half. Loving how we're playing for the most part.

Houston is a seriously strong team.  Not sure I am expecting C's to keep pace, but loving it so far. 

[jpotter33]

The best part of that half? We're leading by 6, which is the exact number of points that Kyrie has.

Granted, we're hitting a lot of threes, but the vast majority of them have been wide open looks.

Can't complain about that first half. Loving how we're playing for the most part.

Even some nice surprises.  Monroe has provided scoring and rebounding that kept us alive as they were getting away from us in the first.  And our attacking second unit is again doing the job.  I miss Theis though, and hope our bigs can keep up in the second half.  That Capela is a load.  Exciting game!

When Monroe is effective on the inside it allows the Celtics second unit to play inside out.

Nice work by that group of guys.

Celtics bench has been xtra tough of late.

Moose seems to heading in the right direction and the rest of the guys have been playing well together.

Been interesting to watch Steven's rotation decisions since the break, hope we have something here.

You guys know better but, my guess is it is best for Irving and Horford to play more minutes together than that cobbled up rotation yack they were doing before the break.

[LilRip]

Since the hand injury, Smart’a shot selection has been superb. Major props to him

Marcus Morris is still hit or miss. More often than not, miss. But when he hits, look out! But yes, more often than not, miss.

[Yoki_IsTheName]

Solid half so far. Kyrie hasn't even been good. Lot of optimism.

We have to keep it up in the 2nd. See if Irving gets his rhythm and help.

[SCeltic34]

Jaylen is getting hosed on these calls.

[jpotter33]

Yet another BS call for Harden. That's a blatant offensive foul on Harden. This ref has made several bad calls right in a row.
