Okay, come on, guys. Need to take advantage of these opportunities.

Slick pass by Tatum, Al just wasn't ready for it.

Come on Tatum.  Fight through the screens with more force.  He left Bogs open after he failed to cover Matthews.

I think Tatum needs to eat more Fruit Loops in the morning to get more strength

[slamtheking]

thankfully the C's are continuing their decent shooting from the first half.  Indy's not going away this half

[SCeltic34]

There aren't enough good things to say about Horford as a basketball player.

Listening to Hubie is like listening to nails on a chalkboard.

He's just 21 years old.

When he's 24 he'll be stronger.

Tatum does as much to stop ball movement as Irving.

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.

not a surprise.  New England is Red Sox Nation so during baseball season, Red Sox are the prime topic -- never mind when they've just won the Series.  With the Pats success since Brady, they're easily the number 2 franchise in NE (many would argue number 1 at this point) whereas they were like the bottom of the ladder in the 70's and 80's.

C's are like the Bruins in the sense they don't get much talk unless they're doing well or had some major off court occurrence.

Exactly right. C’s are maybe #3, often #4 in Boston sports talk.

Nope - bad pass by Tatum, that was almost impossible to catch especially with a defender on Horford's back.
You have to see that before you deliver such a difficult pass.

So glad I’m listening to Mike and Scal, Scal can get annoying at times but Hunter never ever stops talking.

[jpotter33]

There aren't enough good things to say about Horford as a basketball player.

True that. While I think Irving is our best player and Smart is our heart and soul, I think Horford has always been the most important player on the team for our success, because he's just a consistent, fundamental player that rarely makes mistakes.

Probably didn't expect Tatum to pass the ball...it doesn't happen that often

Listening to Hubie is like listening to nails on a chalkboard.

My favourite is when he simply makes things up that haven't occurred on the court.

He can't retire soon enough

[jpotter33]

Wait, what? How is that out on Tatum??
