So the weird thing about the Celtics losses lately, is that they have been ahead after 3 quarters and lost in the 4th. Some of them they lost sizable leads and lost, like against the Cavs. Some announcers think they are bored of the regular season and just want to get to the playoffs.

Blazers Juggernaut Makes Landfall In Boston To Face Quaking Celtics.

One reason to win tonight is so we don't have to see another one of this dude's Boston concepts after the game... https://www.nbcboston.com/news/sports/nbcsports/meet-the-man-who-creates-viral-celtics-jersey-designs-after-every-win/2978309/

Those are amazing. I would gladly trade an L here to see the next one!

I actually agree that they're awesome... but yeah, mostly just jealous that he's had occasion to do 45 of them already.

If I were a betting man, my money would be on the Celtics, that is for sure, but for some reason I half expect an upset.

Celtics have been in astonishingly serious chuck mode for awhile now. The last 2 Boston games I watched (vs Bucks/Knicks) they fired off well over 100 three point shots. The Celtics run down the court and toe the line at every given opportunity. They've been playing sloppy recycled version of Harden's run & gun Rockets offense.

Dame will have his work cut out for him with the combo of MS and DW chasing him around and likely with double teams stunting to hit him hard. Wish it was different but that's what I see coming at him. A bunch of whirling leprechauns to deal with

When you’re in a slump nothing boosts your confidence more than playing the current Blazers roster. Should be an easy W for the Celtics and another ping pong ball for us.

I will watch it to see what Dame can do against the Celtics but my hopes aren't high for the game.

Let's go get that L.

How great would it be to have Smart in the backcourt with Dame?

I hate the Celtics, they're up there with the Lakers for me (more or else depending on the era), so a loss would suck, but what can ya do! Boston and Philly, it'd be almost annoying to win with how many bad losses we've had.

Boston is not fun to watch. All they do is chuck. Chuckety chuck chuckin' chucky chuck chuck. The only commentator that appreciates their style of play is Reggie Miller (go figure).

NURK BACK! Still almost definitely a loss, but the rebounding won't gouge my eyes out at least (hopefully).

Hmmm, should I enjoy my evening, and this game, whilst maintaining a rational approach to sports and life? Or hangout out here and become more a of cynical toad by the second? I think I'll just see myself out.

Horford is too old, needs to hang then up.

Dangit, hot Horford.

This Boston team is pretty good

It’s so hard to watch Celtics games when they at home because of the guy behind the mic screaming so loud “ JaaaaaaaaayTEEEEEEE FOOOOOR THREEEEEEEEE” he literally speaks over the announcers so annoying

Tatum 8 Blazers 11

Celts can get any shot they want.

we're having a few issues guarding Celtics

Celtics Everyone

Brian Scalabrine is truly a garbage announcer

Smart already in foul trouble nice!

D**n, this boston team is stacked

That is a horrendous call. I hate NBA reffing.

?? This lady ref trippin

lmao straight up back to back incorrect decisions

This is some Scott Foster type sh**

These refs out here with a vendetta

Billups needs to get thrown out over that. Just storm the court and get in the refs face and fire up the team

If an airborne virus wiped away all the nba officials I don't know if I'd be sad

Terrible officiating so far, guess the NBA script has the Celtics winning this one.

It would take a remarkable amount of favorable calls for this roster to actually beat the Celtics.

These refs are complete trash!!!!

The officiating, and our offense, are equally bad

Refs decide to kill any chances for us to win tonight

Not surprising given that the NBA profits when the Celtics win

These refs tryna out-refball Scott Foster

Tatum thinks he’s Dame

The Boston Celtics, paid for by Moderna. Get your shot today!

The Boston Celtics, paid for by Scott Foster. Get your loss today!

No wonder the celtics are so good they got 8 on the floor every game

Why is Dame even playing? We have to pick our battles. The Celtics at home ain't it.

Somebody guard Hauser !

Could be worse given the team we're facing. Maybe we can play some defense now?

Well staying in this, would be closer without bs reffing

Why would you help off of Hauser who only shoots 3s

Grant trash let’s be real

If we could stop leaving people open on the perimeter that would be amazing

White getting calls like he's f***ing Harden, we got no shot

finally some good old school ref ball. Just what I wanted to watch!

Why can we never make shots? So frustrating. Told ppl here we NEED guys that are pure scorers. Lou Williams, Derrick white, even brogdon like you need guys like that

Chauncey is gonna save his challenge for when the blazers are down 25.

Yes Boston is a championship team, but this defense is absolutely inexcusable, and that falls on Chauncey

We are comically bad.

This game should be Exhibit A during Grant's contract negotiations. And Exhibit A in Chauncey's firing this summer.

I blame this on the refs and the Blazers not being that good at basketbal

ok time for dame to start chucking for scoring title, game is over

celtics are not even playing that good and we are getting blown out of the water

Our defense is so bad. Good thing Celtics are immune to wide open shots

At this point in his career, Griffin showing up on the floor is just Celtics clowning on their opponent

Tatum keeps messing up

every night it's a new guy. Tonight it is sam freaking hauser..

stop letting the white guy shoot

Sam Hauser 3-3 from deep, completely unguarded

Blazers held Celtics to 0 offensive rebounds! although... Boston didn't miss too many shots

Celtics missed last 12 three’s

Jaylen Brown looks like the Phantom of the Opera.

if the C's had quit chucking threes (9-27), the Blazers would be down by a lot more.

CB needs to go next year...this offense is brutal to watch...zero idea, zero creativity, just iso to oblivion

Blazers don't have the budget to fire Coach, they can't even afford to hire a backup Center !

Ahh so this is what a real basketball team looks like

LMAO Chauncey ATOs remain the worst in the league. Wtf did I just watch

Grant is just another in a long line of good defenders that came to Portland and decided it wasn’t worth it to try on defense.

Get that scoring title dame

We’re gonna give up like 139 in regulation

Every time two Blazers go to the ball handler the Celtics find the open man

Celtics are practicing

F*** these refs let us lose on our own we're more than capable

Man, these Celtics announcers are so bad. At least they respect Dame's talent

Hausers defense looks pretty bad

Tatum is a beast, credit to him

Random a** dudes just getting to the line for Boston.

wow dame really turning into a FT merchant to get that scoring title

Boy this fourth quarter Celtics collapse is going to be embarrassing

Did anyone else see Blake Griffin hold Dame back so he couldn’t participate in the final play?

5 very losable games in a row after this. WE CAN DO IT!

We are winning the losing contest

tatum showing dame what efficient scoring from the floor is

Tatum release starts from so far behind his head

C’mon Grant Williams don’t “make ‘em both”

Tatum is like a 6'8" Dame that plays defense

That's terrifying

And Brown is a taller CJ that also plays defense.

Refs wants to go home early. Blazers helping them.

I had a nightmare last night that we got the first pick in the draft and we DIDN'T choose Wemby. Apparently this crappy team is living rent-free in my head.

Everyone on our team is a**

Don’t care about the game, I just wanna fight Hauser

Honestly I hope we lose by 40 in the end, the only way there will be any major changes is if we start getting beat really bad

We're doing so bad that Dame can't even stat pad

Everyone just watched Brogdon blow by Watford.

They could play their B team and still run us out of the gym.

So we’re not even gonna let dame try for the scoring title? For what? Rest him to lose again?

I have the Celtics winning it all this year...really didnt expect much in this game

This whole team is a**. Including Dame for OK’ing Bum a** Billups

The Blazers make 10-point wins feel like nailbiters and 20-point losses feel like 30-point losses

I don’t know what Gino Time is, but I like it

are they going to fire chauncey?

No. We have a cheapskate owner who doesn’t care if the team sucks or not.

Okay. We’ve cut their lead to 21! We got this!

Hey. There’s that big-haired kid, Davidson.

Is Davison a fan favorite or did they get a free treat on that make?

Blazers bench destroyed Celtics bench 36-26!

Well, that was definitely the 2nd team in the east vs the 10th team in the West

we look like a lottery team. crazy thing to say when we have Damian Lillard as healthy as he’s ever been.

Huge L to stay in the running for 7th in the lottery. If our boys dig deep we could even have a 1/11 shot at Wemby.

What I don't understand is why the refs felt the need to help the Celtics. It's bad enough what we are seeing out there, do they really need to kick us while we are down too?

We get to do this again next week
