Well it looks like this series is not going to be a walk in the park. For the same reason we were bashing the Sixers after game 1 (poor execution, lack of discipline, missing free throws, etc) we can say for the Celtics this game. The Sixers simply made plays down the stretch and the Celtics didn't. We couldn't watch this game because of our basketball league, so I'm going to base this recap on what I read and saw highlights on. Also, I didn't fill the magic water cup.
The play everyone is going to talk about is the late offensive foul with the Celtics down 3 and a chance to tie. I saw the replay, and..... unfortunately it was an actual moving pick. Now, with that being said, was it a call that should be called at that time of the game? Probably not. Now that we got passed that I have to question Doc again, who has done some puzzling moves this post season already. But last night why did he let the shot clock run down at the end of the game before having Rondo foul? It seemed the Celtics could have played out the shot clock and there would have been 5 seconds left. Weird move by Doc.
It seems as if Avery Bradley got hurt and came back, I heard last night he was +22 on the night, maybe he should never come off the court again. Looking at the box score I see Paul Pierce only shot 2-9, I don't know what is wrong with him. And also KG only getting 12 shots is inexcusable.
Either way buckle up, this Celtics team isn't going to make things easy.
