[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

[blink]

Wanamaker is the JJ stopper...

he has played tough D on him!  and without fouling

[CelticSooner]

And now Dallas heads hang and it’s over. Yay

It's kind of sad seeing Dirk play like this.

why is it sad?

Because he used to be great and he's an easy guy to root for.  He doesn't look like he belongs out there anymore.

[Ogaju]

It's kind of sad seeing Dirk play like this.

why is it sad?

because he is barely a shadow of how good he once was, father time being undefeated and all

aging should not be sad.

[blink]

we have 27 assists on 33 makes.
outstanding

[Chief]

Smart, Hayward, and Horford bring a lot of BBIQ.  Not a lot of teams have that.

Smart just yelled at Tatum and Hayward to keep running as he brought the ball up.

Smart is 100% the leader and the heart of this Boston team.

Couldn't agree more, and I think it's been that way for awhile.

Sad to see Dirk play this way. Glad we're winning though.

I never said it was.  but nba stars playing way past their expiration date kind of is.
it was the same with KG and PP...

Seems like he's the type of sparkplug player that plays much better at home, too.

That is awesome.  The thing is they probably listen to him too.

yeah. i do love me some smart. when turning points in the game arise, he steps up and makes the plays you never imaged could happen.
