    Celts pull one out of the bag. Much better defensive effort.

    What a turnaround by the Celtics.

    Another strong defensive display and plenty of ball movement on offense to easily take Game 5.

    Game 6 this weekend in Miami should be wild.

    If the Celtics didn't review that foul would the officials have overturned the 2 point call?

    Wow, Celtics coming all the way back. On paper they should have never let it get to this point, getting into a 0-3 hole against a depleted Miami team. Looks like they might have woken up just in time

    There’s going to be some nervy players from both sides tomorrow. A buzzing Celtics crowd, a Heat team that is down on numbers, a desperate Jimmy and Tatum trying to not fall again.

    Head says Celts. Heart wants the Heat.

    Sources: Sixers to hire ex-Raptors coach Nurse

    Sources: Sixers to hire ex-Raptors coach Nurse

    Nick Nurse's desire to coach MVP Joel Embiid and his history with Daryl Morey played a significant part in his decision to commit to a deal with the Sixers, sources said.

    Nick Nurse didn't have to wait long. He will have a good squad to work with, Embiid, young up and comer Maxey, and a bunch of good role players. Harden looks to be gone and I think they are better off without him

    Yesss. Heat back to the finals. More importantly we won’t have to watch anymore Celtics. Can’t stand their offence.

    If you're the Celtics why would you supermax Jaylen Brown?

    He has awful handles, awful basketball IQ and comes up small in big spots.

    I just don't see it.

    @KiwiMurph he certainly had a Harden-esque type performance tonight. TO city.

    As for his contract situation, unless they can find him a home in the West there’s no way they are letting him go to another East contender unless they get significant assets in return.

    So only 2 wins for the home team in a 7-game series.

    I admire the Heat. But I hope Denver win

    Celtics have been in a difficult situation for years. They have a group of very good players, but none of them are what I would consider super duper stars. And that includes Tatum

    Tatum is pretty elite although not my favorite player. Rough to say he isn't a super duper star. Was in MVP conversations throughout the year. Taken his team to a final and conference final and had some pretty big games during that time. Embid/harden/cp3 over the years with worse stats in playoffs then reg season.

    I'm not buying his jersey but he's elite.

    Brown is a tough one they are dammed if they sign him as then they have no cap. But of they don't and get nothing for him it makes it just as tough.

    The Nuggets were always in control of Game 1 even though the Heat made a couple of runs in the 4th Q. The Heat had plenty of good, open looks but Martin and Strus couldn't make a basket (a combined 1 for 17).

    Joker and Murray looked to be doing pretty comfortable. The efficiency was there. Thought the Heat didn’t play too bad other than the poor shooting.

    Highsmith or Love might need to start to add a bit of size because it was mouse in the house stuff for a while.

    Vogel's goal for Suns: 'Take the league by storm'

    Vogel's goal for Suns: 'Take the league by storm'

    New Suns coach Frank Vogel says the team has the foundation in place to win a title and that they "need a lot of luck and ... some breaks along the way."

    I think this is a good hire. He did a good job in LA and was fired for the sins of the GM IMHO. He will try to toughen the Suns up
