Celtics (47-32) at Pacers (47-32) Game#80 4/5/19

[Chief]

That wasn't much of a foul by Theis, but whatever.

Nice kid but a 3rd string center in this league.

I wish it was Timelord.

Me too!

What are the local talk shows in Boston saying about Williams not getting time ? He sure seems to make things happen when he plays ?

Don't know...I live in Tn too

Go Celtics.

I still want a partial refund for the last 30 games though.

They are saying absolutely nothing. It's not even close to being an issue. Only the most ardent of fans care if Williams is getting even a second of playing time.

Celts are fine.

If the Celts can limit Indy's offensive rebounds then this will be an easy Celts win.

WHAT A PLAY TO FINISH THE HALF!

Yeah, you have to admire how hard Indy plays and how well-coached they are, but I just don't think that they have the talent to compete with any of the top teams in the East for a series. Very similar to us several years back.

Hopefully they don't go on a run without there best player like we did last year. They are also missing Collison... They play hard and rebound. I do think we have more talent but the Pacers won't go down without a fight...

Loving our scoring balance tonight. Focused on our most talented guys (Irving, Hayward and Tatum, with Al being dangerous) and letting the others get whatever is left

Let me expand. The Celtics on talk shows up here have taken a back seat to the Red Sox season start and Bob Kraft hiring prostitutes.

Celtics subjects center around the team getting the 4th seed and prepping for the playoffs by getting everyone healthy, etc. There is nothing being discussed regarding the end of the Celtics bench.

The best thing? We’re leading by 11 despite shooting 23% from 3. We need to be able to win even if we aren’t shooting the 3 well

Take out Morris' and Smart's 1-9 and the shooting has been excellent....

Orlando is crushing it!!!!

Very surprising there is not more scrutiny on talk radio regarding Celtics as they get ready for the playoffs. I realize Boston has several successful pro franchises, but here in Knoxville, even with Vols basketball being a contender to reach the final four (until Purdue loss) - talk radio is full of questions about Tennessee Football spring practice.

[nickagneta]

I thought a couple weeks back that a Celtic Indy series would yield a fairly easy Boston win in 4-5 games. I stand by that.

Another half where the Celtics ward off Indy's runs and counter with runs of their own for the win would make me very happy after doing so in their last two games against Miami. A replica of a half like this first half would make it a very boring big win in the fourth, and I am okay with that too.

Let’s not have one of our patented bad third quarters PLEASE
