Warriors equalized the series as I expected and I was very confident about it. Warriors are a really predictable team in some specific games. For example, they started this series really badly but I knew that they were going to atone for it right away in the second game. They did this by a huge performance too and Celtics were helpless against them in the first three quarters. They were able to decrease the gap by only four points in the last quarter and had no choice other than submitting to them at the end.

It looks like they are still gonna defend that title favorite for this year's NBA title. The thing is, will they beat them on the Celtics homecourt? During the regular season they got a 28/13 during their home games and 5/4 this playoffs. That's still 50%+ advantage for them this playoffs to win on their homecourt while 3/4 win for GSW on the road. That should be noted I guess.

Forget about the past events, this is the finals and it's very unpredictable. We can based on the game 1 outcome, we thought that the Warriors will not lose game 1 because they have not lose a home court game in the playoffs so far, but the Celtics surprise them in the 4th quarter and have dominated them clearly.

now, Warriors are on the road, we know they are a good team so they have a chance to steal one game on the road, not sure which game it is.

Game 3 is very important for both teams, especially the Celtics because it's their home court and they need to protect it by winning the first game. Curry are good in times that he needed to win, and this game is necessary for the Warriors so they will not be pressured in the succeeding games.

It's hard to decide actually, but I would stick with the underdog here which is the Warriors.

Actually warriors is totally fine even on game one they show dominance but over relax that is why they lose for that mistake they do. And the game two indicates that they will not commit the same mistake and prove already that they can work together and win their games.game 3 is really important for both of them because if 1 of them win they are stepping closer to reach their target and that is to win on finals.

I guess I am referring to what Velvet78 has just said there, "being predictable". He may have said for some specific games but I do think that stats from this year are still measurable for specific things too. Yeah, it's unpredictable, my point was just on the stats, if it will be based on there since there are still people that depends on it.

I know how good Warriors are and I still do that they have the huge chance to get the ring but if it's unpredictability, Celtics may surprise us too.

I don't think the Warriors was the underdog here, they got players here who already have Finals appearances compare to the roster of the Celtics, all of them was their first time.

The Celtics did well in the first and second quarters. But GSW ended the first half with a class and that's where I think it all started.

And when the second half started, that's where the fire started for the GSW and they didn't let that fire burn out until they've managed to put a huge difference in their scores.

They did a great job doing that and we can expect more again from GSW on the next game.

A classic GSW who dominates the 2nd half, with that kind of rotations where everyone really adjusts well, it's really tough for the

young Boston to counter and got no other options but to give it up and rest their starters.

Even there's still a whole 4th quarter to rally back, just like how they did it last game 1, but they might see that it's not worthy to try,

and they just choose to conserve that energy going back home and try to turn the series back in their favor.

That off-the-ball movement of the Warriors really killed the Boston. Also, they respected Horford in this game as they don't allow him open and the Celtics were not able to have success on the kick pass every a player drives because Warriors have already anticipated it. Now, game 3 is coming soon, let's see what would be the adjustment they will make.

Well they are known to have a very good 3rd quarter, if my memory serves me right, regular seasons games, the Suns did to on the way to their league leading records. But Warriors is the consistent one, that's why they just demolished teams in the playoffs. No problem except for the Memphis series and maybe this finals obviously. So Boston will have to play better in the second half, so that they won't blown away like in game 2.

Too bad but I was right, referees directly affected the outcome of second game. In first half they made stupid calls and no calls, ignoring travels, techs etc. Draymond shouldn't be in the court after his first tech. They had to make a move to avoid any surprises. Because in finals none of the teams can make a comeback after 0-2 loss. This series will go to at least sixth game, it's obvious now.
Boston had too many turnovers, they could've played better if they were focused on the game. In third quarter they had a breakdown and gave up the fight. Now it will be harder for them because I don't think they can win both games at home. Tatum should be more productive.

I agree with the missed calls in Draymond's case but there are also missed calls in the Celtics part when it comes to traveling cases.
Regarding the 2nd tech that Draymond should've received, I think former referee Steve Javie of the replay center explained it well. There will always be what they call "consideration" for those who were called with 1 technical foul.
This is not the first, I was actually shocked at how the fans reacted to it. Besides, it's not really that bad of a scene. IMO, I am amazed at how the officials changed their way from being soft to no calls.

Maybe in game 3 we can see a not boring game because provably they adjust and think about do more better defense on their game 3.

Celtics has to adjust, they cannot wait until the 4th quarter and have a big run.
They need to be consistent, control the game from 1st quarter to then end of the game, that way they'll win game 3.

Quote from: ultrloa on June 06, 2022, 06:07:08 AM

I though in first quarter they will make the life of Warriors hard again but looks like they had beed choked by defensive presence of green and he is one of the key guy that's why they win today.

Celtics had a double digit lead IIRC, but no safe lead for the Warriors as they will come back and have their own big run.
I don't know how the Celtics will stop the Warriors in 3rd quarter, but they need to find a way to stop it.

Their problem is they always get dominated by Warriors and they need to finds way to make better run on early quarter of the game and they actually do that already on 4th quarter in game 1 so they should study those things on how they do that because they could maximize it and find what mistakes did Warriors at that time then find loopholes for them to get advantage on game 3 to win.

The thing i do noticed is that they do able to cope up on early quarters specially on 1st and 2nd on where point gaps arent too wide and here comes 3rd where their consistency turns out to fade
and letting warriors on making out points and starts to lead up big where they are really having a hard time on reaching it out or getting equal.If they do rely on that 1st game
performance on trying out to cope up and tie then its not something that always happen and they should have stopped that kind of belief.

There might be some cases of wrong officiating or questionable calls but the core problem of why the Boston Celtics lose is a) they lack offensive power, in the end, failed short, and b) the Warriors make sure to keep the phase favored to them until the last seconds - momentum.

We have seen how the Boston Celtics crashed their momentum when the Warriors are now doing some continuous shooting streaks. Different from what they have shown during Game 1 that even behind a large lead, they focused on the rally and eventually win.

With that loss, I'm sure the Celtics already know what's the problem. A bounce back is always possible.

2-2 possible? Home court of Celtics? Possible but lets see if they could pull one again into warriors.

Well, it's been over 10 years since the Celtics went to an NBA Finals. Boston is a traditional and classic team, we cannot underestimate the young and promising team that Boston has, but on the other hand, the Warriors are an experienced team and have an excellent squad, Curry, Thompson among others...

I confess that it will be an extremely interesting game, as the Celtics are a strong team when they play at home TD Garden

It is going to be a different story now since it's going to be a home-court advantage for the Celtics. That matters but it won't be a matter to the Warriors. They've been used to it and that's not a problem for them but this matters to the Celtics as the first two games it's on the advantage of GSW. 2-2 is possible or it will end as 3-1, we don't know. It's always like this when we're watching the finals and it makes us impatient because we want to see the game as soon as possible.

Every single role player who played earlier really maximizes the help that they can bring, fewer minutes but good enough to

make an impact. Otto, Bjelica and GP2 players who came from the bench who gave enough minutes for the stars to rest.

Boston show a good start but again, 2nd half is being dominated by the Warriors and they didn't give any sign for the Celtics

to make a comeback and rally to win. They completely sealed this game and win with a very confident leads.

I have to say, when you have Poole, Wiggins, gp2 etc etc playing well, then there is no way that Warriors would lose. And do not even think that those players are good or anything, Warriors is a team that could play with their system and put almost any player and make them look good, because their system actually works.

Glad to see the series tied right now, I hope by game 4 we would have another 2-2 tie as well because that makes things interesting and odds go up. By the looks of it Warriors will not let it be easy for Celtics, maybe they got the first game but Celtics are looking a bit more troubled on defensive part for the both games.

Game 2 was really great for Warriors. They got what they wanted very comfortably by demolishing Celtics by a 19 point difference. I'm favouring Celtics in the final series maybe but I must admit that Warriors' performance impressed me too much. Curry had a wonderful game again and this time they didn't leave their job to chance as they were more than 20 points ahead before entering the final quarter. Celtics couldn't do much against this much solid performance this time. The series is 1-1 now and Celtics are the home team in the coming two games. I feel like the score will be 2-2 after those games.

Would like to see if we do reach out Game 7 which would really be that intense.For game 2 speculation earlier then i was right.They had never given a chance on having that dominance of celtics on 4th quarter and we've

seen on how curry is cooking with those 3's but its not really that bad performance for Celtics but that wasnt enough.The gap is too much and you can see their gameplay on 4th quarter where
closing the gap or points is meaningless but al least they have tried.

2-2 possible? Home court of Celtics? Possible but lets see if they could pull one again into warriors.
