Will Simmons do an emergency pod or hide until Friday? My money is on Friday with an intro riddled with non-Celtics excuses. “House and I went to a late dinner” or “Chris Ryan and I stayed up late to work on our White Squall Rewatchable”.

In two games Boston has attempted 100 three-pointers, and made 25 of them. Yikes.

crazy to think if Boston instead attempted 98 3's the first 2 games and made a simple 2 pt shot, they'd be up 2-0

I truly don't get them continuing to just throw up 3 point shots with 20 point leads. Just breathtakingly stupid offensive basketball with the lead.

Denver was due for a stinker after the quick game 7 turnaround from the Clippers series and the game 1 theft in OKC. The margin was ridiculous but I don't think the outcome should have surprised anyone. That's going to be an interesting and (I hope) long series.

The Celtics / Knicks thing is just odd. I don't think the C's are going to change the way they play and the Knicks have a lot of guys who can switch out on the perimeter to match up on defense. The Celtics caught just about every possible injury break in their title run last year. Do we really know how mentally tough they are? Or how truly good they are are? Not having Porzingis is hurting them right now, but that's really been the story of his whole career. I don't think they are out of the series, but those were two gut wrenching L's.

Well Kendrick Perkins says this series is over for Boston, so Celtics in 7 I guess

Pressure now on Denver for Game 3.  If they lose that, they're in trouble.  You can't help but to wonder if they're starting to wear down.  They've gone every other day now for awhile.  Winner of this series likely wins the whole thing considering what is going on in the other series.  

Boston/NY is insane and I don't really care who wins.

Top 2 seeds in the East are both 0-2.  Knicks out of the East maybe?  Knicks in the Finals might save the league from a Cleveland/OKC ratings debacle.

Jalen is about to achieve GOD status in New York. These fans are fucking starved for a championship. Ravenous. I would love to be in the Garden for game three. Just not wearing my Spurs gear.

It’s pretty when it works. But once you lose the prettiness and the other team has momentum, it’s hard for any team to establish any kind of flow and it just snowballs.

But as pros they should know this.

Theres something(to me) to be said about knowing your system and sticking with it 

But then again, I’m not the coach of a team down 0-2 after losing two 20-point leads and shooting like a WNBA team from three

SECURITY HELP !

Cunt lies to Security that she was pushed and they still tell her to pound sand. Something tells me her Karen ways are well known in the arena.

I understand that telling a team to change its gameplan--and what's essentially its identity--mid-game because the 3's aren't falling is easier said than done, but would it kill Boston to show a little urgency? Instead of running one action with 8 seconds on the shot clock before a pull up or one pass and shoot, I don't know, maybe run a play with 14 seconds on the clock and make New York defend multiple actions? If it still results in a 3, so be it, but at least the ball would be moving.
