Game Day: Celtics (50-23) @ Suns (19-55), Mon 3/26/18

Post by Superbone »

Time: 7:00 pm AZ (7:00 pm PT/10:00 pm ET)
Place: Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix, AZ
TV: FSAZ, NBATV

The second best road team in the league plays the worst home team in the league. Is it a recipe for disaster? Probably. Do we care? No. The 3rd and 4th picks of the 2017 NBA draft go at it. Next... on NBATV.

Go Suns!!!

It is about that time of the year where Ulis shines. Playing against teams that don't take us seriously and don't care to play much defense when they are already up by 30.

Didn't that start on opening night with Portland?

Good drive by Bender but when that shot went up he was under the basket. He didn't even look for a rebound he just ran straight back. WTF is that?

Is he being told to get back right away? If not then why isn't coach yelling at him when he does that? Bleh.

I almost hope the rest of the team goes scoreless for the quarter.

It really seems like Dudley just isn't confident in his three point shot these days.

Big Sauce is the special sauce this team needs. He has the right attitude. Love the way that Jackson, Harrison and Ulis are playing.

What a fucking commercial. Bill Russell talking about respect for one another while they show a bunch of clips of players talking and smiling at the refs. The peaceful music in the background was a nice touch.

They must have spent quite a bit of time searching for those clips. Meanwhile coaches are charging at refs and verbally abusing them over calls even when the ref got it right. Players throwing fits and yelling at refs. It is quite the mess most nights.

I swear Chriss could be perfect from the field have 30 points and one bad play would still make him get all whiny.

Chriss having a solid game! Although he just watched a ball bounce past him into the backcourt as Larkin ran and got it. Then somehow recovered on time to get the block

Jackson is a monster. Such a nasty steal against Tatum.
