Posts: 1800Pats vs. Brady. Thumbs down on both QBs IMHO.
Good game for the Pats. I'm still down on Cam though. Despite of Belichick having an obvious (positive) effect on him I still think he's still largely a one man army and he won't last health-wise. 2nd touchdown he should've avoided the hit, stepped out of bounds before scoring; much more than likely his team would've easily scored on subsequent downs but it might've been not him scoring. His unprofessional behavior following the game is also alarming. The effing chain. Reminds me of how Italian player succeeded in get Zinedine Zidane to act up during 2006 FIFA World Cup final by talking about fucking Zidane's sister which probably caused France the World Cup.
Tom lost the game for the Bucks. Period. When your only successful long passes are DPIs you won't beat a team like the Saints. The rest of Bucks had a good outing imo

Posts: 2943Hell of a game (part 2)
First, what a game!.
That has to feel good for the Celtics. Smart and others who were on that 2018 team that lost to the Cavaliers in 7 games that year, that Game 7 was brutal. But boy, they stepped up this time and got a big win over the defending champs!. I think this will be a big moment especially as they continue to improve and progress with their careers.
And unlike that game, they actually played superb defense late and also actually seemed to attack the basket a bit more and didn't settle for 3's all the time in the 4th quarter. And it led to a win tonight and a trip to the ECF. Also, imagine how Kemba must be feeling. The guy won 3 playoff games in his entire 8-year Hornets career. Now in his first year in Boston, he has 8 playoff wins and is appearing in an ECF for his first time. I know he struggled most of the last two games, but he did make some big plays in the 2nd half today to help secure a win. I'm happy for him, and hope he hangs around.

Posts: 2943Hell of a game!
First hell of a game for the Celtics but, that game last night was wonky as hell. The higher ups needs to look into those flagrant foul calls, they are ridiculous. One call really turned everything around last night, placing refs into spotlight again.
I really believe that coach Stevens also made bad decisions during the game. So many minutes for the starters, especially when Grant Williams and Timelord had solid production.
Tatum as a ballhandler is always a risk. His dribbling is not good enough to get him out of double team, so he's making a lot of to's as a result, and gets his energy drastically drained. He's lot more useful when he's getting off screens, attacking the rim.
Kemba needs to take more shots. JB and Smart were great, Smart for me is a best player in this postseason, heart and soul of this team!. Anybody recovering from that game?. Holy hell.

Mk. Fuck it, I'll chat with myself.
So far, the C's have been doing great. What's encouraging is that even when they are sloppy some games, they find ways to win. That's what championship teams are able to do.
Still have a ways to go with this series, but honestly I truly do think the East is open. Toronto and Milwaukee don't look like the world beaters that they seemed before, and if we beat Toronto + Miami upsets MIL, I love our chances at making the Finals. Miami does seem better equipped than Boston to handle Giannis, yet I also think they will struggle to keep up with our depth of scoring prowess, Gordy or not.

Posts: 2943Lets go Bruins!
Long way to go obviously, but a great start. Bruins fans all remember what happened in 2018 against this same team after winning game one, so don't get too over confident. Halak stood on his head for most of the night. Thankfully the Bergeron line decided to show up, unlike last year.

Posts: 2943At Least He's Honest!.
"To be honest with you, it doesn't really feel like playoff hockey out there. There are no fans, so it's kind of like playing an exhibition game," said Rask. "It's definitely not a playoff atmosphere out there. You try and play as hard as you can. When you're playing at a home rink and an away rink and the fans are cheering for and against you, it really creates a buzz for the series.
"There's none of that. So it just feels like dull at times. There are moments when there are scrums and whatnot, and then there will be five minutes when it's coast-to-coast hockey. There's no atmosphere. So it feels like an exhibition game. We're trying our best to ramp and get energized, and make it feel like it's a playoff game."- Man, hopefully Pasta will be back ASAP!.
Hey, can't fault him for being honest. Watching it, it felt that same way.
As for the Celtics, in 5, a sweep?. It's going to be a unusal season.

I remember being a 19-year-old kid at Filene's Electronics on the 5th Floor watching this game. I was praying Dave Henderson to not strikeout. What happened next had me losing my shit. RIP Hendu as well as Donnie Moore.

Not as big or as great, but ones that still give me goosebumps anytime I hear it is Johnny Most yelling "Havlicek steals it. Havlicek stole the ball! It's all over! Johnny Havlicek stole the ball!

The other ones are the 1970 & 72 Bruins Stanley cup wins, when Bobby Orr put the puck in the net & goes flat out like superman flying, just awesome.

Red Sox come back of the Yankees in 2004.
Malcolm Butler's goal-line interception in Superbowl XLIX.
Bruins 4-1 come back of the Maple Leafs / Bruins winning the Stanley Cup on 2011.
Patriots 28-3 comeback in Superbowl 51.
Celtics 3-1 comeback in the 1981 ECF against the Sixers.
Of course, there are a lot more but, what has stuck out for you as a Boston sports fan that will live in your mind forever and you'd tell your grandkids?. Discuss!.
