Yeah that game was super close. I was posting on SS&R about the Ham hire and missed the first 3 quarters. Back and forth game the last five minutes.
The other good thing about this it is a 4 year deal. Last time a head coach had more than a 3 year deal was with Phil Jackson.
So his contract runs through AD's current contract of 3 seasons. So even if LBJ signs a 1+1 extension there will be cap space and development throughout the remaining years of Ham's contract.

BnM your team is my only hope.

Nothing against Tatum and Hoford, but the Celtics can't win this.
It's Curry's job to make sure WE show up and hold down home court. We're undefeated there during these playoffs, so I hope that continues.
Celtics have a bit of history of not holding their home court, so if can hold ours, we are in good shape.
Tatum has been rather inconsistent, and Brown been sloppy on the handle. I think we can take this version of these worn down Celtics in 5 or 6.

This is embarrassing.

All was looking good till Kerr made substitutions at the end of the 3rd....
Poole was playing like it was rookie year again, all game long. Homeboy had nerves so shaky, he literally reverted back to G League status. He should have been benched because this ain't the venue to let him "work it out". Had he not started the 4th Qtr.... with his shook ass revolving door defense on Brown... maybe we retain that lead, and they don't suddenly find some confidence and become Warriors East and shoot us out our own building from 3. Boy needs to calm down and step into the moment, or ride the bench.
And Draymond with being Mr. 2 for 12.... come the **** on Dray... stop shooting the ball. The man couldn't make a layup or short 4ft shot to save his life. Legit the worst layuper in the league. Makes no sense. Couldn't fall in the ocean jumping off a buoy. Dray has no excuse for that. Even making just half of the misses changes the game (). 5 extra made shots = 10 points.... 1 of the 3 missed free throws (0-3), and we're suddenly at 11 extra points on the board. Suddenly 1 pt difference. can't be blowing every damn layup.
Now I know there's no way the C's shoot like that again, but honestly, they don't have to... next game Tatum likely shows up, and all the pressure is on the Warriors.
It also didn't help that even though Curry came out the kitchen COOKIN in the first, he followed up the first course with a palette cleansing 0 in the 2nd. We can't have that. Curry even putting up a modest 5-7 in the 2nd keeps up the lead going into the half.
Also Iggy's turn over out the time out that started the C's comeback was just tragic. Warriors really gotta get it together. We're supposed to be the 4th Qtr team, and we sure as hell did not play like it.
anyway.... on to Game 2.
Adjustments will be made... hopefully we do better and get this back on track. Cannot underestimate these C's as they are a legit defensive and offensive threat.
Jimmy B let us down.... I really wanted to face the Heat. That was Dubs in 5 for sure.
