I blame the BPD. They closed off like three blocks around the Garden tonight in anticipation of a game 4 victory. That and the fact that the Celtics couldn’t hit a shot in the first half.

Yep. They're going to get ripped for the next 48 hours, just like the Mavs were after Game 3.
I think that’s for sure part of it, and I think the Mavs finally acquired a chip on their shoulder, and I think the refs were in a mood to reward effort, and I think the Mavs showed the value of elite shotmaking in desperate game.

4 teams. 32 is the record apparently
Are they playing the close out game of the finals like the play the end of any game that's close? Stagnant offense and tightness abound all over this game. I get the heavy finger of the league office and Foster and such, but this was embarrassing even if you take these elements out. No way you should be getting punked like this in a closeout game
1970. Game 6, Lakers, down 3-2, beat Knicks by 25. Game 7, Knicks won.
Pierce bringing the Auerbach cigar to “First Take”. That and the Celtics caused this
When the trailer for “The Instigators” is the highlight of your viewing experience, you know it’s not your night
Also.. the telecast has been saying all night that this is one of the largest leads in NBA history in the Finals.. so we know that it's probably never happened.
Was that the first ever Kornet Kontest in the NBA Finals? Why wasn't the ball taken out of play to be sent to the HoF?
Let’s go out and celebrate the Cs performance tonight by running straight into one of those barricades and then short arming a layup.
If we're allowed to foul them every time they go to the rim with no calls.. we'll get this one in 7.
Celtics shooting has been terrible this series . You have to imagine they go off eventually. If the lose Monday, watch out.
This is coming from a Duke fan but Lively’s revealed himself to be kind of a tool in his interviews this series
At least tomorrow is Saturday so I don’t have to listen to Jon Stashower announce this result while I’m walking to the train.
Yeah.. why not be miserable enough to doomcast them losing the series after one loss?
I'd prefer a 70s lineup on the floor with the Hanson brothers giving Dallas some Iron League punishment.
Hopefully THJ making a bunch of garbage time threes tricks Kidd into playing him real minutes Monday.
I imagine the the Italy-Albania announcers tomorrow won’t touch on this, so I’m good through the weekend.
I think you missed my point. The C's are going come out amped-up Monday after being embarrassed in this one. Nobody is suggesting they're not still in great position.
Extremely frustrating that it doesn't seem like they were able to match the Mavs mentally or physically tonight, and that Dallas got so many bounces and calls. But I also really really don't feel great that they haven't been able to generate good scoring opportunities on offense seemingly since the 3rd quarter in Game 3.
