Celtics/NBA 2023-2024 NBA Finals - Celtics lead series 3-1 - Game 5 Monday at TD Garden

[BernieMcAvoy]

Halfway through the 3rd quarter, the Celtics have been called for 18 personal fouls. In their 17 playoff games this season they have only been called for more than that twice and 20 is the most in any game.


Just need to regroup and play with more intensity in Game 5. Even if they were playing well, they were going to have to overcome Scott Foster. I want Mazzulla to subtly call out the refs though, when a team can take away the drive and kick because they're allowed to foul on every drive it's going to be hard to win

I blame this on the stigma of having the Yankees in town, sets a bad Boston sports vibe.

The refs are not the reason that the Celtics are down 36

 

[EverettMike]

Pull the starters. Al especially shouldn't play another second.

Ok, this is sad

Correct

 

[CDJ]

Picked a hell of a time to play their worst game of the season

Win game 5 or else I start getting nervous

The Duck Boats are staying in their garage for the weekend

If there's one personal positive of this, i ran the ladder on Sam Hauser 3 pointers. They may be getting their ass kicked but i'm kicking the books if they can keep him out there

 

[Bounces R Way]

They're already back in Boston mentally.

Great team but not many in history have swept a conference finals and a finals b2b

 

[Mione134]

I always felt this was going to come home. I said Dallas would win 1 at home. Here we are. They better focus and come out ready to win on our court.

KP has to play.

 

[Mathews28]

they may end up with half the Mavs score

This puppy going 7.

 

[Gordoff]

This puppy going 7.

Holy shit!

 

[The don godfather]

Holy shit!

Kyrie woke up is my reasoning. Let's see.

The commentary is a little over the top. Celtics in 5

 

[Maine Fan]

Wasn't a 100% effort
Later

It will refocus them for Monday.

Imagine dropping streamers because you won a game and avoided being swept

Also, f*** Luka.

 

[pgm16]

Wouldn't be at all surprised if Celtics do the same to the Mavs on Monday. Have a nice weekend folks !

I stopped watching, did they really drop streamers? Confidence is now rising, that’s crazy. Bruins have scarred me tho lol

 

[McGarnagle]

I wanted to clinch at home and now they have the opportunity

 

[Troublesome 85]

I doubt Brown Holiday and Tatum have a game like this again hopefully KP is back.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

Last step in learning how to win is getting the last one.

This is like the 08 team dropping game 5 in LA. They'll come out at home and end it
