A late, late night in LA. Will the Celtics bounce back vs the Clippers?


Keys to the game, find your offense its been missing in action. Match up on D and win those battles. 
For me personally stay awake! 

1st Quarter ☘️

Love hearing Max on the broadcast, refs already making a negative impact. Seems like there is good amount of Celtics fans tonight in LA. Great move by JT getting to and rocking the rim! Excellent passing and rotation by the C's for THREEEEEEEEE!!! 

Great pass by JB, hitting Blake for the lay in plus one! Celtics D is lacking tonight, wake up please. JB pulls up for the beautiful jumper! Much needed time out. 

Knock, knock, defense where are you?? I hope the C's aren't hitting a wall. I tell ya right now they don't look like the team we are used to seeing. 

Like Max just said let's knock the rust off the tires. If not it's gonna be a long night, not sure what we are doing right now.

RIP Paul Silas, eternal be his memory. A heck of a player but even better person. To many of our Celtics family are joining basketball Heaven. 

Malcolm Brogdon came to play tonight, need the rest of the team to join in. Celtics trail after one 29-25. 

2nd Quarter 🍀🍀

What a nice play by Haus Money off the glass. Have to say, I like the way this team has recovered tonight after a slow start. Tatum just can't buy a bucket right now. The entire team is missing bunnies. 

JT with a George Gervin type finger roll, getting the foul. Kudos too Max for the reference! 

When you get a guy in the washing machine and get him spinning in the rinse cycle! Max is bringing the fire! Love the fact we get him tonight. That in depth analysis was all about JB and that move. 

Celtics have forgot the art and ability to rebound. Put a body on someone and box out! Clippers are getting way too many second chances. 

Way too many misses for the C's still! Finally some good ball movement ends in a Malcolm Brogdon THREEEEEEEEE!!! Not sure why but I don't like the Clippers, its gotta be the LA connection.

Malcolm Brogdon is coming up huge tonight. What an excellent drive and gets the score! Marcus Smart is giving up his entire body tonight. Taking elbows to the face. 

Blake told Max I've got HOPS ON DEMAND! Give me more of this content, Max just keeps the game light and flowing. Unlike Scal who is drone and makes the game sluggish. Celtics need to finish strong, and put their stamp on the end of this quarter. 

How to give a guy a T for blocking a shot. Then the ball, which turns into a multi point possession. Celtics D sucks right now! Not feeling very good about how we are playing lately. I know there are going to be struggles, but I want to see high level all the time! 

Celtics trail after the second 56-47 label this writer as annoyed. 

3rd Quarter ☘️☘️☘️

Marcus should stop shooting threes. This entire third quarter has been terrible! No juice tonight for the C's. I'm getting very worried because this looks like last year. I'm talking early on last year when we didn't know who we were. 

They need to simply just wake the heck up. Other than Brogdon where is the bench?! Nice little floater by JB, followed up by a great defensive play by Marcus. 

JT for THREEEEEEEEE!!! Now can we play some D?! We did and forced an airball. Yet we can't sustain any type of momentum or run. 

The game just continues to stay out of reach. I was hoping this team was different but these past few games are showing me maybe not. Two of the better coached teams, with deep rosters have been every bit as good or better than the Celtics these past two games. 

Clippers will always be the veggies at the grill in LA. Clearly evident by the amount of C's fans at the game. Curious to see how things pan out vs the Fakers fans wise. 

Celtics are getting run out of the building. Trailing 88-72. 

4th Quarter 🍀🍀🍀🍀

Barring some miracle comeback this game feels like a dud. When shots aren't failing this team needs to learn how to grind out offense. 

Definitely not their night, the defense has been pitiful at times. I hope they look in the mirror after tonight and man up tomorrow. 

Way too many threes, and they are getting out rebounded. They have missed so many threes they could build a house. 

Tomorrow is a good night for basketball as we get Warriors Bucks and Celtics Fakers. If the Cs want to salvage this road trip they need to beat those posers. Scal is HORRIBLE! The refs are TERRIBLE and the C's just plain suck tonight. 

Yes I did stay up and was thoroughly DISAPPOINTED. 

Bleed Green! Celtic Pride!

In defense of Marcus Smart

 Let me make it clear first of all that I am totally against making a threat of any kind that even hints at harming, or certainly killing, another human being. Marcus Smart was wrong in doing so in the Celtics loss to the tanking Oklahoma City Thunder , and he deserved the one-game suspension. But to be honest, part of me loved that it occurred. . This type of thing can happen when a player gets to a point "beyond frustration" and is having a bad game. Marcus and his teammates have been under-performing generally - were in the process of losing to a pathetic-and-tanking Thunder team - and Smart was having a bad game . And he let loose verbally at the closest target - an NBA official. Wilt Chamberlain did a similar act versus referee, Earl Strom when Wilt was having his usual tortuous time at the free throw line (per Chicago Tribune's Sam Smith): ''He was in one of those 1-for-13s,'' recalls referee Earl Strom. ''Nothing was getting close. S...

Did the Celtics Kevin McHale really have a wingspan of 8-feet?
