I do not wish to be the prophet of doom but I wish to use this analogy and maybe not a good one. I was down 5-0 in tennis. You know you win at 6 but have to be ahead by 2. I fought and fought and tied it 5 all. Would you believe winning 5 in a row I got a bit complacent and lost the next 2 because my opponent who lost 5 in a row was really p-ssed and fought harder than I did those last 2 games. We need play harder and more focused that we did the last 3 victories and especially the last one up 11 pts twice and then 10 with 5 min to go. I don't care if we are up 15 in the 4th Qtr I want it to be at least 10 with 2 min to go.

Cs are favorites.... at home.... c0cky after a long climb out of the hole they dug themselves.
We're about to make history.... look at us.... aren't we great.... it's in the bag.... and they let it go to their heads.
You know that Jimmy Bee is pissed and ready to rain on the Cs historic party if given the opportunity!!!

Basically I said the same thing so I agree we can't irrespective of 7.5 favorites and winners of 3 in a row let it go to our heads as in the bag.

Q1:
Celtics lineup change (Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Al Horford, Marcus Smart, Jayson Tatum)
Heat lineup change (Max Strus, Gabe Vincent, Caleb Martin, Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo)
C's win the tip and Tatum is fouled by Vincent (Tatum turns an akle on the play) ... makes 1-2 FTs

They are 2 of 12 but with our turnovers we are not capitalizing on building a lead. Should be ahead by 10 now. No 3s by either team.

We are shooting 31% and 0-8 on 3s. Got to do what helped us last game...drive to the basket for 2 or get fouled.

If we can't shoot we won't win, and don't deserve to.

This is what kept them close last game...14 to 7 3s and they are 3-0 already. wide open shots. They seem to havent learned after six games that you can leave Strus, Vincent, Martin, or Robinson open.

Get Brogdon out of the game...can't even make a layup...
0 for 10 on 3's at end of quarter...could be worse for us I guess...guess we made some 2's...
