I think that's harsh on IT. I think it's more that everyone in that arena knows that IT is the guy who is taking those shots (including Boston). So while the other 4 Cs waited for him to be him, Wahington attacked him and made him NOT be him. After the clown move wearing black before you've buried a team, they all deserve a ton of heat. Isaiah included. |

The one bright side to this is that if momentum is true in sports and we're toast, at least the Wizards are more likely to push the Cavs. Let's be honest here, the Lebrons would murder us if we get through.

Turns out the NBA refs cheated the Celts out of a full second at the end of the game. I'm not even mad about it because that choke is all on the players, but it's inexcusable they didn't review that when they review literally everything.
The refs in this league always give the Celtics the short end of the stick. They need to call them out publicly.

As soon as it happened I was screaming for Someone on the Celtics bench or the players to say something about it. All i did is look at the clock and see an extra second come off the clock after the whistle.
The bigger problem I have is that they went to Olynyk Instead of Horford, Bradley, or IT

Up 5 with a 1:10 left and they blew it and it's fair to say blew it because the two possessions that led to turnovers that let the Wizzards tie that game were a joke. Isaiah panicked and threw the ball away. Dude just call a timeout there.

Frank Jackson from Duke is hiring an agent and entering the draft. I doubt he makes his way into the first round which makes his decision not very smart. That being said, despite the fact he's a PG and the Celtics really don't need one; he'd be a great get in the second round. Guys tough and played best in big games and he can shoot from deep. He'd be a nice NBADL person. We could upgrade Jacksons - not a fan of Demetrius.

Unless a bunch of guys pull out there are going to be some really good players available.
I have my sights set on bigs like Jordan Bell, Jonathen Jeanne, Omer Yurtseven, Tony Bradley, Ike Anigbogu, Caleb Swanigan and Johnathan Motley. With my top three being Bell, Swanigan and Jeanne in that order. Bell is my favorite, but the combine seems to have his stock on the rise. His defense and rebounding is just what we need. Swanigan can rebound and shoot the 3, would be a great replacement for KO if he leaves. Jeanne has major upside as a defender and rebounder like Gobert.
I certainly wouldn't be upset if a Jackson or Diallo fell to us either. Heck even guys like Jawun Evans and Josh Hart while not a need seem like good value picks at pick #37.

The NBA wants Wall in the ECF - this is a rigged basketball game.

Come on it's not rigged, but that was a horrible call. Nothing but great D right there by Smart.

Far more contact on that Smart drive - no call.
The NBA doesn't like this Celtics team from a rating perspective. They wanna hyper the overrated Beal-Wall combo, so that's what we're gonna get.

Isaiah hacked on one end - no call.
Wall gets a gift call on the other end.
This is as rigged as it gets.

How does Crowder let Wall get that rebound?

We are witnessing Isaiah become a Boston legend. What a treat.
