Round 1, Game 2 - Tuesday, 7 p.m., against the Hapless Hawks

[Bergs]

If that’s an illegal screen, Bam would foul out every game.

I mean...Bam SHOULD foul out every game, right?

 

[Ed Hillel]

I just came

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Men against boys.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

I'm not willing to say the 'flip the switch in the playoffs' thing is viable, but we definitely are not seeing anything from this series which suggests otherwise.

Of course, the Hawks suck

 

[Reverend]

That tag team block was fucking awesome.

And then LIT Al on the other end!

 

[Ed Hillel]

Timelord is just a fucking cheat. Especially with the swallowed whistles.

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

I mean...Bam SHOULD foul out every game, right?

Yes.

 

[Reverend]

I'm not willing to say the 'flip the switch in the playoffs' thing is viable, but we definitely are not seeing anything from this series which suggests otherwise.

Agree. But the Celtics objectively look just fucking cool.

 

[TripleOT]

Did the Celtics get a permit for that Block party?

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Looks like we may be popping the (Justin) Champagnie tonight.

The Hawks are exactly who they've been for months - a completely average team, who happens to match up just horribly with Boston.

 

[TripleOT]

Tatum with an effortless 24 points on 15 shots. Has he even broken a sweat tonight?

When the Celtics play offense with spacing and ball movement, it becomes very easy for JT to pile up efficient points.

 

[TripleOT]

Looks like we may be popping the (Justin) Champagnie tonight.

That guy hit the basketball lottery this spring

 

[Helmet Head]

The hawks have more passes to no one than any team I have ever watched

 

[Ale Xander]

Jb

 

[Reverend]

oh shit the lob to Brown. Tho not a lob.

 

[Ale Xander]

Please guard dejaunte

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Dejuante Hachimura

 

[ZMart100]

Refs really letting them play.

 

[Helmet Head]

Murray can’t miss

 

[luqin]

Grant Williams officially out of the playoff rotation or is it just a matchup thing?

 

[osori]

Can you please stop going under screens against shooters on fire.

 

[The Mort Report]

Huge fail for the broadcast there, Murray has had plenty of games of 5+ 3's this season alone, 8 is the high

 

[Ed Hillel]

Joe wake up

 

[benhogan]

White please

 

[Ed Hillel]

What the fuck is Joe doing

 

[ifmanis5]

ATL really is better when Trae sits. -14 tonight.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

the fuck isn’t that a foul

 

[Ale Xander]

Not this shit again

 

[lars10]

do these refs know they're allowed to call fouls?

 

[Ed Hillel]

the fuck isn’t that a foul

Nah, straight up.

 

[Ed Hillel]

CALL A FUCKING TIMEOUT

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Lol elbow to the face, no call

 

[Ed Hillel]

Wow Brogdon

 

[The Mort Report]

Don't scare me like that TL

 

[ifmanis5]

CALL A FUCKING TIMEOUT

Two minutes and a TL injury later...

 

[Ed Hillel]

That should be reviewed for a flagrant

 

[lars10]

Nah, straight up.

Except he wasn't?

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Hawks going bonkers from 3 and still not really competitive

 

[slamminsammya]

dead cat bounce

 

[SteveF]

Defensive boards have been the issue. 66% DReb% isn't going to get it done.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Williams just knocked that out....

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Bogdanovich and Trae is a lot of minutes of guys you can hunt whenever you feel like it. And while Capela and Okongwu are both solid defensively, neither is a Gobert/TL level cover up either

 

[lars10]

Defensive boards have been the issue. 66% DReb% isn't going to get it done.

The Hawks have been missing a lot of shots from deep and just in general.. a lot of those rebounds have been long rebounds that are pretty hard to predict.

 

[Euclis20]

Tough for minutes for the "white is better than murray" crowd. Still in good shape.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Except he wasn't?

On the Smart drive? Yeah he was.

 

[slamminsammya]

Defensive boards have been the issue. 66% DReb% isn't going to get it done.

eh, id go more with there is no issue and murray hitting 6 threes is some pretty good shot luck for atlanta.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Tatum back for the whole 4th?

 

[Imbricus]

Atlanta has 14 offensive rebounds. That's not good.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Oh nice move and nice block
