Game was already over.

 

[Raquinotj]

2nd half Tatum scored 15 points, the rest of the team scored 12.

 

[SchoolboyC]

That 2nd half was by far the worst half the Celtics have played this season and maybe of the entire Mazzulla era

Just bricking 3s left and right, sloppy ballhandling, terrible on the boards, getting beat to every 50/50 ball. Completely embarrassing effort

 

[JordanwiththeWiz]

Damn everybody in the east has double digit losses, except for the Cavs with 4 losses.

OKC not playing they came out scrappin…The best second half performance I’ve seen in awhile

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

27 second half points for Boston. Ain't no defense that good. They just played dumb as fukk after halftime.

Boston did have some poor possessions and missed open shots, but when they did try to generate offense by going inside, OKC turned them away almost every single time in the second half.

Their defense is just that damn good.

 

[Organic Trees]

Damn OKC.. they put the clamps on the green team

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Before the season started -

Looking forward to seeing just how dominant OKC will be on defense this season. I expect them to overwhelm the majority of the league on that end of the floor.

They've even surpassed my expectations.

Respectfully I ain’t trying to hear that

Reigning champs, you supposed to be an offensive juggernaut, figure the shyt out

There’s no defense in basketball history good enough to where a 27 point half is the best you can hope for

 

[Raquinotj]

That second half was comical. Brutal.


Jaylen, Jrue and White 0-13, 0 points in the 2nd half.

It is not 27 points good. Boston stopped the post-ups in the second half which were automatic in the first half.

The last four minutes of the third quarter really changed the game. Pritchard and Hauser came in hijacking the offense, throwing up terrible shots and Boston never recovered.

 

[SchoolboyC]

Boston better hope they duck OKC in the finals. OKC in 5

Go ahead and put your money on it

Refs allowed OKC to be a lot more physical in the second and Boston couldn't adapt. Sometimes that's just the way it is when the officials allow the smaller team to get away with more physical contact.
