Again, from elsewhere...total affirmation for Fierce...though I fully disagree with the NBA viewpoint because I think it is turning off viewers...
"Sadly this is nothing new. No one wants to believe it but it’s plain as day and not just because of what happened to the C’s. It’s every year because you can hear the announcers talk about it. Whatever team has the biggest star, they hype it and the nba pushes it. Doesn’t matter if your a clod idiot football player like lebron or Giannis. Once the NBA HAS DECIDED WHO THE STARS ARE, the narrative spins. It’s disgusting because it suggests it’s not about if you can play but what sells. If the game is officiated correctly, I’d argue the Celtics could win it all this year. They are gonna have to find a way to rise above it and change the narrative themselves. That means our stars have to shine brighter."

If we retaliate now we'll be called. They'll call this one tight. We will in in a finesse game. In the end I don't think the nba wants Milwaukee, just longer series. Well, how about a quick karate chop to Giannis's neck, and a kick to the nuts during the opening tipoff...seems like the refs don't see this stuff... Hong Kong Phooey?

Anyone call out the missed charge on Smart. It was just so obvious. Clearly got to the spot, set, outside the no-charge zone. Giannis bulls him over, no call.
I understand its not going to change anything, but it makes some of us feel better to grumble w each other.
Regardless, I think we win tonight.

It is not so much the missed calls and opportunities but the very real potential that someone gets hurt by this hopped up Giannis...he looks like the Kentucky derby winner attacking and biting the escort horse after it won on Saturday...waiting for the drug report to come out...

You are old enough to remember Shaq throwing guys out of the lane. Giannis is a pussycat compared to him. That why I want Theis in using his SIX fouls each game against Giannis. Gotta smack him back and since Theis isn't really in Udoka's rotation , he's the only big that can we can afford to do it. I LOVE the heart this team has shown, coming back down by 14 in the fourth on the road to the defending champs. All while our best player was having a $hit game to boot! Milwaukee has been beating the shit out of Boston this series so far. Time to see if we have strength to mix it up with them on their level. I know the guys have the heart for it.You are missing the entire point of the discussion...When we play like Giannis does, we get fouls called on us...when Giannis plays like Giannis does, we get fouls called on us...get it now?... Just trying to point out that Giannis isn't the first guy to play bully ball in the NBA, not even the best at it ever either. It certainly IS frustrating to watch when it's against our team for sure. But we have played him pretty well over all, I expect the next game to be a bit more to Boston's liking in respect to foul calls on charging. But frankly refs WILL NOT foul out a player who is an MVP candidate in playoff games, it almost never happens. gotta live with and play through it , if Boston wants to win the series, IMO.
