OH WHAT YOU THOUGHT THE CELTICS SEASON WAS ABOUT TO BE OVER? NOPE!!! WRONG!!!! THEY ARE NOW BACK IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT OF THIS SERIES WITH 2 OF THE NEXT 3 AT HOME. YEAH SURE THEY SHOULD BE UP 3-1 IF NOT FOR THAT MINI CHOKE JOB IN GAME 3 BUT WHO GIVES A SHIT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE HOLY SHIT WAS THAT THE MOST INTENSE 2.5 HOURS OF MY ENTIRE LIFE. I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT AL HORFORD IS DOING RIGHT NOW DESPITE IT NOT BEING NEW BECAUSE PLAYOFF AL IS LITERALLY TOP 5 ALL TIME. YOU DON'T HAVE TO QUOTE ME ON THAT JUST TRUST. SPEAKING OF TRUST HOW ABOUT MARCUS SMART?? WHAT A MONSTER CLOSE FROM HIM IN THAT FOURTH QUARTER. THIS IS WHY WE LOVE AND TRUST ALWAYS AND FOREVER. YOU WERE WRONG WE WERE RIGHT. EVEN WITH ANOTHER GAME FILLED WITH SOME FUCKERY THIS TIME VIA TONY BROTHERS AND A MASSIVE FTA AND FOUL DIFFERENCE IT STILL WASN'T ENOUGH FOR THE BUCKS. THAT'S UNFORTUNATE FOR THEM BUT WHAT DO THEY SAY? GET IN THE WEIGHT ROOM? ALL I WATCHED WAS THE CELTICS BULLY THAT TEAM TO THE TUNE OF A 43-28 FOURTH QUARTER. DON'T ASK ME WHEN THE CELTICS SUDDENLY BECAME AN ELITE FOURTH QUARTER TEAM BUT BOY AM I GLAD THEY CHOSE THIS MOMENT TO DO IT.

YEAH OF COURSE YOU'RE GETTING A SECOND PARAGRAPH OF YELLING DID YOU JUST WATCH THAT FUCKING GAME? THIS IS WHY WE LOVE THIS TEAM. THERE IS NO QUIT. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THINGS LOOK LIKE AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT THIS TEAM PLAYS FOR 48 MINUTES. WE ALL WANTED TO SEE HOW THEY RESPONDED AND HOW WOULD YOU SAY THEY DID? I SAY FANTASTIC. OK NOW PLEASE GIVE ME A MOMENT TO COLLECT MYSELF SO I CAN STOP TYPING IN ALL CAPS IT'S KIND OF DISTRACTING.

(exhales).

Fuck yes. Season on the line, the Bucks with another huge third quarter and a bit of a lead and boom, this team punches back and not with a jab or some light bullshit, but a knockout punch. When this team needed Jayson Tatum to show up, he was there in the fourth quarter. After struggling all night the dude finished with 30/13/5. Not a bad response for him when people were foaming at the mouth ready to slander. Fuck you. You don't slander Jayson Tatum you respect him for the star player that he is. 

Seriously though, I'm nervous the NBA is about to test Al Horford for every PED under the sun. What we are watching him do to the Bucks is simply incredible. Look at this man!

30/8/3!!!!! Holy fucking shit!!!!!! 

Nothing makes me happier than seeing Al thrive. I want this so bad for him it's insane. It's like he's 26 or some shit, this should not be happening but it is and it saved the Celtics season. There were a lot of massive performances today, but it starts with Al. So steady. 

The goal of this trip was to take 1 of 2 and that mission is accomplished. The first team to win 2 in a row is going to win this series, and now the Celtics have the opportunity to do it in their own building on Wednesday. We all remember what happened the last time they played at the Garden right? I expect the shooting to come back, the defense to still be elite, and the crowd to be a factor. We wanted to see what this team was made of tonight and tonight they showed us they have gigantic balls.
