There is no way, absolutely no way the Celtics are winning two games at MSG. No way in hell.

Tatum and Brown are their 2 biggest stars, and those 2 have been choking like a MFer. Putting up the stupidest damn shots. Smh

Un fricking Real. Boston did not learn their lesson from Game 1. Congrats to the Knicks, they’re just some dawgs that will not give up

At least they learned to miss tough 2s this time.

I don't love Brunson's Harden tendencies with drawing fouls, but he is a dawg and it's hard not to like him. He was calm and cool in that interview even after a crazy finish.

I can't stand him when he's snapping his head back every play, but he's really cut that out this series and just decided to play basketball. They don't always call that flopping shite in the playoffs.

Case in point, Brown tried to draw a foul in the last two minutes by flopping and putting up a shite shot. No call, Knicks go down and score for the lead I believe.

Boston was 10-40 on 3's after going 15-60 in game 1. Probably the biggest story. They shoot at least 30% from 3 and they're up 2-0

Brunson's Harden


These 2 shouldn’t be mentioned in same breath

Brunson is HIM- and wants the ball at the end of the game,

Yeah, just a couple of more makes in each game and they're up 2-0.

The 3 point shooting in game 1 is why he wasn't in panic mode. Didn't anticipate them going 25% again.

Whoops.

Brunson knows how to the flopping on and off. Come playoffs, you have to earn those buckets. Something Harden never could figure out.

And again, why leave a timeout on the board. If you're tied, I guess sure, let Tatum play hero ball. Dumb move.

Big difference is Harden doesn't even try. He becomes Ben Simmons and is simply afraid to shoot or drive.

There wasn’t a parade of free throws which was nice for a change

They had Robinson on Tatum on the last play by Boston, and really that was a bad move because Robinson is too slow to stay with Tatum which is why he went right by him the previous play for a dunk to put Boston up. Anyways, Tatum gets the ball and again has Robinson stumbling trying to guard him, but instead of pulling up by the free throw line and shooting an uncontested jumper, this knucklehead continues driving right into a double team and gets easily blocked by Bridges.

Nuggets look like they're mailing it in after winning the first game
