They got punked by the refs
Yes the refs were awful. It was blatant. The league is notorious for doing that shyt. But the C's need to understand before the game, number 1. They are not going to get calls. So instead of trying to create contact on offense and foul hunting, they just need to hit shots. 2. when they don't get calls they have to sprint back on defense and compete. The refs were horrible, Zarba and Brothers are the new Donaghy's. Sadly they just gotta be mentally tough and play through it.

It was no doubt in my mind the Celtics would hit the fatigue wall in this game. The Warriors should be up 2-0 but thanks to poor coaching it’s 1-1.

Both teams know how to front run so keeping it close will be the key. 15 point leads can turn into 25 real quick.

Steph has to continue to play top 5 in the world basketball to get this ring.

Yeah you could tell even when Tatum was on fire in the 1st half, his shirt was drenched with sweat by the 2nd quarter. Fatigue is definitely a factor.

I thought refs letting them play favored the Celtics? Yea yea.. phantom call ok GP2.. but Steph constantly gets fouled at the rim.. never gets called. Celtics got out worked. Draymond putting pressure off those switches disrupted the offense.. now time to see how Udoka counters.
