Also having to watch the Celtics feed was completely appalling. Even without Heinson it absolutely enraged me. Scalabrine call on TJ hard fall was in such poor taste. Those a****** shouldn't be allowed to broadcast. Disgusting.
Are Celtics fans OK with this kind of behavior?
This stuff is small potatoes.
It's the Celtics. Tommy Heinsohn and Johnny Most were far worse.
Boston fans love the homerism.

You clearly haven't been to Boston or met too many people from there.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

4 in a row? That can’t be true!

will like to think Celtics jumpers would cool off so not tripping as yet
my concern is the dribble hand offs, too many dunks....
we haven't been giving up so many layups/dunks in this three game stretch but it's early

still wanna see Ayton challenge some shots
Smart man.

TJ hit the ground hard just now of a drive. Stayed down a bit and getting checked on now.
I wanted to punch Scalabrini through the screen. He says, as long as Kyrie got up, I'm cool with it. (laughs)

This is the first time in Booker’s career that he’s won 4 straight times
That's crazy! It's time for things to change around here.

The move he made at 5:36 in the 4th is the stuff All-NBA Ayton is made of. That, and his move in the Dallas game where he put it on the floor from the foul line, spun off a defender in the paint and dunked it. Both moves were Dream-like.
Yes, those were beautiful. He also had a spin move similar to the Dallas game in this game as well.

I predict another win! Four in a row! Suns are rolling. Never thought I'd say that again.
I Barkley'd the win tonight.

Can't believe that this is the same team I watched 2 weeks ago. What an amazing transformation. The energy on defense is crazy. I hope these guys believe in themselves now. I like what Oubre brings to the table.

Also having to watch the Celtics feed was completely appalling. Even without Heinson it absolutely enraged me. Scalabrine call on TJ hard fall was in such poor taste. Those a****** shouldn't be allowed to broadcast. Disgusting.

Feel free to tweet him @scalabrine
You da man! Yeah, I was forced to watch the Celtics broadcast on NBA TV as well. Those guys were infuriating. I sure hope Scalabrine gets a big time punishment for his horrific statement. I couldn't believe he said that. Sickening.

I don't think we've turned the corner or "arrived" yet, but the way things have come together is awesome. A month ago these guys didn't look like they wanted to play basketball at all and started off games knowing they were going to lose. I think it might've had to do with the vets playing so much and kind of dragging things down. Now the younger guys are playing more freely and are feeding off each other. No more Tyson, no more Ariza, no more Anderson.

And again, Jamal is the one making things really go with the 2nd unit.

It took a while after I made that post for the Celtics lead to crack the 11.5 barrier, but once it did things turned around pretty quick. Crazy.
