Celtics (3-0) at Sixers (0-3) Round 2 Game 4 5/7/18

[hwangjini_1]

poorly played by celtics. not enough energy. miserable execution, NINE turn overs. poor shooting. tatum is invisible and morris sucks...on the road, bad referee calls.....


and only down by 4? if the celtics come out strong they will roll over the sixers.

wake'em up brad!!!!!

Philly is hamming everything up to get the officials to call every little thing against the C’s. Only down 4 with an 8 on 5 half.  Not bad.  Let’s shut them up for good in the second half and get on to the ECF.

WOW, Smart, Tatum, Morris, Brown are all in foul trouble?

[celticinorlando]

I missed the 1st half! How is it going out there?

8 on 5. Boston called for 12 fouls in the quarter Philly just 1

[Surferdad]

Bad half. Hopefully refs review what they’ve been calling during half.

Philly is exerting a lot of energy that I don’t think they can sustain.

Celtics need to stay aggressive and avoid further foul trouble. All things considered, we are in a good spot.

I agree.  They are working really hard on defense but it’s not in their DNA to keep it up.  This is where the Celtics are clearly the superior team.

I hope we come out FIRING!

3 fouls on Smart/Brown/Tatum/Morris, refs, you're not being subtle at all

Refs certainly seem like they have a bit of an agenda tonight.  Double the fouls on the C's.
C's 16 , Philly - 8.  Philly hasn't played that well until a little run at the end of the 1/2.  We haven't even gotten going yet.  If Brad can spark them to actually get after it a bit we have a chance to steal this one.

[GratefulCs]

And just watch - the refs will go back at halftime, realize how terrible and lopsided they've been on the fouls, and they'll come out and try to even it up to have the box score not look as bad.

It's sickening. There's literally no objective standard of officiating. It's all subjective and dependent upon the context of the game.

by giving non shooting fouls

classic nba

That's crazy.

[bopna]

The Sixers will try and gut this one out knowing yhat they can't be touched on the inside.. All of our wings with 3 personal fouls.. Blatant fouls on everything..

I hppe we keep our composure and keep this game close in the fourth because the refs will not let us pull away with this game.

[ozgod]

Truly atrocious second half, refereeing, shooting, everything

[Vox_Populi]

These two games in Philly have been so awfully refereed I'm about to turn into Kyrie.

Part of that is the refs allowing Philly to hand check the Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. out of Boston’s guards and wings
