“A HERO IS NO BRAVER THAN AN ORDINARY MAN, BUT HE IS BRAVER FIVE MINUTES LONGER." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Isaiah Thomas is our hero. ☘️🏀

Out with a torn hip labrum--surgery?--is IT.
(devastated) Ailing since March, he let no one see.
Prayers Up as he faces his new reality.
Our thoughts are with him, Our Heroic C.

Changes: Brad is back to Amir, at the start.
Green could bring a Bench spark. Also starting, Smart.
Cs should be loose, with house money we're playin',
Fearless Brown, Horford, AB, Smart, Olynyk...just sayin'.

Horford, first score! Cs first lead! AB FOR THREE!
Crowder, STRIP FROM LEBABY! Highlight for me ;)
Def not Love-ing Love. Amir (!)...holding his shoulder. Tangled up with Thompson. Cs shots went colder.

SMART FOR THREE! Zeller, in. Cs ball movement! AB! Crowder! LeBaby, whining. HORFORD FOR THREE!
Rozier, Fearless Brown! Cs within 11 start Q2.
Love missed Antoine W's 3s record for a Q by 1, boo hoo.

No paint points, LeBaby. Green! CROWDER FOR THREE!
Olynyk, Rebound! Cavs not missing. Crowder, foul three.
GREEN FOR THREE! Til Kyrie...Cs a 7-0 run! Cs gritty!
Crowder steal! AB flyin'--score!--behind his back, pretty!

Smart, Strip! Cs, D! Horford! Back in is Amir.
Love-ing Love even less. "Three Reasons" are clear ;)
Crowd booing: OLYNYK FOR THREE! SMART FOR THREE! How many times Love's pass to LeBaby must we see?

Aggressive Smart! Not awful, Cs with 16 start Q3.
Cs shooting too quickly. Marv is annoying me:
LeBaby, unselfish, blah, blah... no word about our D!
Aggressive Horford! Jerebko, in. SMART FOR THREE!

CROWDER FOR THREE! Getting into it, Kyrie/AB.
SMART FOR THREE! Jerebko, foul? Few calls for a C.
Jerebko called Love a flopper, nerve he doesn't lack ;)
Of course, refs missed Love's first shove in his back.

AB FOR THREE! Surprise (hah), now Olynyk, foul three.
JEREBKO FOR THREE! Cs, 26-10 run! Cs, crazy D!
Smart, smart! From 21 down, Cs within 5 end Q3!
JEREBKO FOR THREE! Thompson making his FT.

Jerebko vs Korver, Williams, Thompson...love the Swede!
Providing D, scoring, grit, attitude the Celtics need!
Olynyk, hip, he's ok. Kyrie's scary. SMART FOR THREE!
AB, steal! Smart, silly foul one. TIE! SMART FOR THREE!

Olynyk! Cs, LEAD! Olynyk, Crowder, fouls four.
HORFORD FOR THREE! Cs playing hard all over the floor!
JEREBKO FOR THREE! Kyrie...tie. AB FOR THREE!!
HOLY 🏀! CELTICS PRIDE WON BY THREE!

CELTICS: HEROES ONE AND ALL
CELTICS PRIDE! CELTICS BALL ☘️
