The Celtics would have won by now if they didn't constantly throw up stinkers and let down in the third quarter

The Celtics, like what they have gotten better at over the season... they still do it to an extent it happened in the third quarter as they just we'll just let down. And all of a sudden they have terrible runs... they just throw up stinkers. I think that's been, it's been the most, it was like this in Milwaukee series, like this, the Miami series.

The Celtics are the better team and will win the series if they execute

If [the Celtics] just have to execute and play their game, they're going to win the series.

So it almost makes it worse when games are close and they lose games.

The Celtics looked great despite losing Game 1 because they won three out of four quarters

I would much rather lose a game playing like absolute dogshit than lose while playing well
