That doesn't sound right. 22.4 ppg on 58/48/90 splits lol.

Tatum is our 3rd leading scorer so far. :o Saving him for later.

If he keeps this up, some team is going to offer him something crazy

Us!

There is less than a zero percent chance of White not staying here lol.

Dunno if Mike will do it (or if there are contractual restrictions/conflicts or whatever), but TNT/ESPN should invite Gorman to do the Celtics home games in succeeding rounds.

Dude was arguably the most physical player in the series, so he backed up those words.

When we first got Kornet, he was a 3 point shooting big....Brilliant for him to change his game and use his Height to his and our advantage....He's become very valuable for us, even if he is our 3rd Center.

I want brown to make it instead of Tatum.

I think it's fine.

If Cs win like this every game then JT would have done more with less.

Because after the first round, national stations (ESPN, TNT, ABC) have the rights to ALL the games and poor NBCSports Boston has none of them. So it’s all national blowhards I mean broadcasters from here on out.

Looks like JT is sending a message to those saying he's soft.

Doesn't mean you're tough if you're loud. :lol:

Good **** riddance to the Heat and have fun negotiating an extension with Jimmy this summer.

I called Cs in 4 and am generally happy enough — much more focused than last year at this time — but the KP injury is a bummer!

What has stood out about this team the whole year is that with few exceptions they take care of business against inferior teams. They responded big time after game 2 and did just that. Great series win, these guys are locked in. Hoping Cavs/Magic goes 7 so KP can get some more rest

Loved the methodical taking business approach. I also like that Kornet and X got some warmup run for next series. Heat were valiant (but still jerks, of course), but never had enough offense to hang other than by shooting historically hot from 3.

Going Mike for VC even though I didn't get to see him and was stuck with the TNT crew.

Cs really have 4 players who can't be guarded 1 on 1.

Whatever coaching disparity there was in this series, it couldn't compensate for the disparity in talent.

Nice win!

VC to White and Brown. Both were great is the 1st quarter and had good games.

Jrue, Hauser, Tatum, Kornet and Al were solid.

Joe deserves some props.

Love you Mike. Thanks for all the all the great games!! We will miss you. We were spoiled with Mike and Tommy all these years.

While taking the brunt of the Heat defensive attention. He never really forced it, was happy to make the right play and let his teammates score. And played good D as always. We'll need more scoring from him in later rounds and get it (if JB lets him, lol), but he played a low key great series.
