NBA Thread 2019-20 Season

[jncuse]

Free money alert. Free money alert.
Lay the some serious coin on Toronto.
Tony Brothers is reffing game 2.
The Celtics are 2-10 this season with Tony Brothers and 3-9 against the spread.

Toronto by double digits tonight and I am 100%. Brothers hates Marcus Smart. He hates the Celtics and Doc Rivers. So if he does either teams games go the other way.

Scott Foster is only other ref I loathe.

Not seeing the hate today. Celtics throwing moving screens as if their Pitt, and then Gasol just gets called for one.

What an impressive first quarter by Robert Williams -- was the player of the quarter without a doubt.

9 free throw attempts for Boston, 0 for Toronto.

 

[jncuse]

Tatum is the best player on the floor at this point for either team.

Boston has the clear bench disadvantage (but has the advantage from the starters). If they (the Celts) get good contributions from the bench it will be a tough series for Toronto. Williams has been a monster, but then Semi has been a guy I am happy to have with the ball.

Raptors aren’t attacking that this why they don’t have the FTs.
They are shooting a lot of jumpers.

It’s not like the Celtics are getting a friendly whistle.

Jimmy Butler has as many free throws per quarter as these two teams combine for in entire halves lol

 

[Alsacs]

Kemba Walker single handily shooting this game to Toronto.
Boston offense has been brutal outside of Tatum.
Smart or Walker need to give them something.

 

[OrangeDW]

Lol, they just took away an uncontested breakaway layup away from Toronto.

No way that stands. That was a college b-ball esque “doing way too much” type of call. Looked all excited to make it and everything.

 

[Melancer46]

Jesus Smart. God the NBA sucks so much sometimes.

 

[jncuse]

Good that Boston got screwed on the challenge. That was a ridiculous flop by smart.

 

[Cusefan0307]

This is the first game you can say Boston has missed Hayward.

 

[Melancer46]

I yearn for the day the NBA starts straight up suspending players for flops. Some of these guys make soccer look like amateurs.

This is the first game you can say Boston has missed Hayward.

Brown played well in the first half but that entire quarter the Celtics only had one guy playing well Tatum.
Smart/Walker/Brown gave them nothing.
It only being an 8 point game is crazy but the Celtics are playing good defense.

the problem as a raps fan is it is close and I know that Kemba will get it going at some point. I have noted a few times the raps just giving him the 15 feet just above the free throw line jumper and he is passing on it. When they give it to you have to take it, to help with spacing on future possessions.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Smart deserves to get Oakley’d.

 

[jncuse]

3 huge threes in the last 2 minutes for smart, and 2 big flops .. that we’re not called at least.
We got a game.

 

[jncuse]

unbelievable stretch by smart. Made a big mistake on that foul earlier, and instead of letting himself down just comes out on fire.

 

[Alsacs]

Smart the ultimate no no no yes player.
He isn’t an all star but you Love him on your team but hate him if he is on the opponent.
He flops too much though.

 

[Alsacs]

Holy chit I hate Tony Brothers effff you.
You can’t call technical there.

 

[jncuse]

ridiculous tech call on Tatum. Refs have to ignore that type of minor reaction in a close game late.

 

[Alsacs]

Brothers calling a Celtics game is such garbage.
Such a hack.

 

[OrangeDW]

I still hate that gather rule. That’s a travel.

 

[Alsacs]

Doris he is out of bounds. Even I see that.

 

[OrangeDW]

I know you gotta get it right, but this is a LONG delay. Cmon.

 

[Alsacs]

Marcus Smart hot streak and Celtics defense stole that game.
