Tatum was almost 2 meters behind the backcourt - that was one of the dumbest calls made by officials - ever! Totally agree! But just like last game, when Smart's defensive play was overturned, nothing surprises me anymore.

Smart play give them the 2 and then make the foul shots.

Celts need to play in games like this.
If you think this is hard, wait until the playoffs arrive.

Gordo makes 2-2 for a 3pt lead ... Nurkic throws the inbounds away ... GAME OVER!

Of course I’m happy with the victory but it must be analyzed how we lost a 24 pt lead.

Can the refs put more time on the clock for Portland ... the Russians would.

Celts hit the Blazers hard early in the game with Tatum's hot shooting.
The Blazers responded in the 2nd half by making unbelievable 3s.
But the Celts didn't fold.
Good sign because this is what will happen in the playoffs.

But just like last game, when Smart's defensive play was overturned, nothing surprises me anymore. Ya some bad calls, but not as egregious as the Giannis calls. Lillard heated up, how do you stop that? They all played well especially down the stretch. Portland is a different team with Nerk-Itch. They have a lot of size.

We slept at the end of 3rd beginning of 4th. Better display overall. Tatum was great offensively. Needs to pick up his defensive intensity.

Was hoping for 2 Boston team wins today. Despite blowing a 24 pt lead and actually being down by 4 at one time, we won. It was nerve racking but gratifying.
Now I know this is not a Sox forum. I have hated the Yankees as long as I have hated the Lakers and really more frustrating than the Celtic game I watched Boston get 3 different leads and the Yankees caught them & then they got their 4th lead and the Yankees passed them !!! A series sweep by NY. UGH !
