It’s been the same shit all season. Focus. Age. Missed opportunities.
To watch the Celtics play, you’d think it’s harder to stitch together 48 minutes of good play than it is to run a marathon in under two hours. A team that once treated even meaningless November games like the NBA championship, now treats big games against rivals like preseason exhibitions.
When, oh when, did that change occur? Read more »
With the Boston Celtics ahead 66-51 in the third quarter, I texted my brother,” All we needed was KG. We’re back.”
“I know. They’re back,” Jay responded.
