there we go.
Big half by the Celts. Brown huge.
Lights out for Brown. The full repertoire too - 3, midrange, got to the foul line
Defence has been good too from the Celts.
-
Celtics completely reliant on the 3 at the moment. Risky stuff in a playoffs. They'll win today because they are falling, but if they don't in latter games?
Giannis taking the piss driving and the refs let him do what he wants. Different rules for some players.
-
carry job
Morant scores his teams last 15 points to hold serve in game 2.
47-8-8 is a biiiiig day out. -
Pretty exciting game. Other than Ja, none of the other Grizzlies really got into the game.
Klay was cold as. There were some good looks too.
Let’s see what the Grizzlies can do on the road in Oakland.
-
@mariner4life some bloody impressive ball movement by the Celtics though. It wasn't just iso-ball

GP2 out for weeks with a dislocated elbow. That was an ugly play by Brooks. The smack across the head alone would’ve got him a flagrant 2, but the fact he did it while GP2 was in the air makes it reckless and dirty IMO. Brooks head is down and he doesn’t even jump to properly try and block the ball is pretty damning on any defence of his actions.
I’m a big fan of Brooks and have been since I saw him as a freshman for the Ducks. He’s always played with the fire in the belly and hard nosed, but man this was too far.
GP2 is a key player for the Warriors. He’s obviously a locked down defender, but his athleticism and work around the basket on the boards and in the offence has been vital.

Yup it was a dirty and reckless play. In these situations perhaps the player should be suspended until the victim can play again? It's Payton's job to mark Ja so Memphis benefits

Completely agree with this. Very reckless and the chance of GP2 NOT getting injured was next-to-zero.
@mariner4life Brooks got 1 game. I reckon it should have been 5. No genuine attempt to play the ball, incredibly dangerous.

How lucky was Max Kleiber? Slight little push from JaVale and that’s what can happen with these big dudes.
And you all know I’m still dirty on Danny Green hitting Klay Thompson in the head which resulted in an ACL…
-
Mavs get their first win at home. Despite the Suns shooting better and rebounded better, the turnovers killed them. Very uncharacteristic for them. CP3 was on this ridiculous run of low turnovers but was Harden-esque today.
-
-
@voodoo their defence was pretty damn good. Embiid on the court definitely makes a difference to their defence and in the minds of the of Heat players, but the perimeter D stepped up several notches.
-
If Warriors cut down the turnovers, they’d be up by 30 or 40

I didn't watch the game but read about Ja getting hurt. So did Poole show intent?
It seemed pretty innocuous because there was tight D and a double team and Ja was struggling to maintain possession. But no doubt it will be put in slow motion and replayed over and over to appear differently.

It's nothing like the GP2 hit
