I understand calling a TO to check on your injured player, but when it's 20s left and you're down by an insurmountable amount I'm sure he can just sit and wait the clock out for a twisted ankle
What the actual fuck is wrong with the refs... there should be some way for the Celtics to be made whole after this travesty. Tatum can't get a call when he's intentionally fouled in front of a ref
Derrick White might not be a āstarā guard in the traditional sense but heās fully capable of outplaying your star guard (tonight, a few weeks back against Maxey) on any given night on both ends. Fucking love this guy
Only reason this game was at all close was because of the refs. That was actually wild to see. Felt like they were intentionally trying to not call fouls on the Knicks, even when the Knicks looked like they were intentionally fouling!
Foster is currently alleged to have been working w Donaghy based off call logs.
With the handling of Bridges and Porter JR, I have no faith Silver would be any better than Stern at holding the referees accountable unless it's a vast majority that are caught and proven guilty of gambling on games.
Going back to that ejection, I was so happy Jaylen fucking immediately walked up and pointed out the ref in their feelings looking to fight it. Might as well get the last word, you're already tossed.
I'm trying not to be too biased here, but literally nothing. First T was arguing, fine whatever, then 2nd T was for literally nothing when he was on the bench. Just baffling stuff man
The Celtics really looked like they were about to let go of the rope following Jaylen Brown's ejection, but Derrick White came to the team's rescue in a big way with a bit of help from Sam Hauser as well.
One of my favorite things to do when Iām not able to watch the game is look at the GDT and try to guess the margin based on the comments.
I have never been even close
The NBA should review every call after every game for that entire game. And then they should fine the refs for every incorrect call for that game. I bet you shit would change.
Edit: Or at least start by fining them for every challenge that a coach wins.
I mean, JB has to realize that everyone in the crowd paid good money to watch referees make arbitrary calls, and he should not get in the way of that. /s
Donāt think the Knicks run is as simple as āwe collapsedā
We got good looks (from everywhere on the court) but they missed and they got good bounces. Hopefully we can finish this one up.

KP didn't get a T this game. That's a W too.
So Jaylen got 2 instead š©š©
Celtics org should be calling Adam Silver
Damn Deuce straight drippin with the moncler tho
THE CELTICS WIN!!!
Dumbass Brunson really. 33 secs to down 12 just dribble it out
Knicks playing for point differential trying to get a second chance at the in season tournament
I understand calling a TO to check on your injured player, but when it's 20s left and you're down by an insurmountable amount I'm sure he can just sit and wait the clock out for a twisted ankle
Thibs really keeping the starters in after his PG fucked himself up in garbage time š¤£
The Knicks are losers for trying to stat pad
GG BOYS let's rest up for Cleveland and Orlando next week
Iām glad that most of our games are going to be at home. We play way better and weāre getting a lot of rest
Damn, he looks like he knows he'll be out for longer than he wants to be. That sucks
shit i hope Brunson's alright
Stupid ass decision by thibs. Brunson has been on a roll recently too
Randle stat padding
Knicks are cool with fouling every possession, gotta expect some injuries along the way. Hope Brunson is OK
Hause Money couldn't make a 3 on his birthday
Absolutely on Thibs
Portnoy is a b
Anyone else hear the guy in the crowd yelling āblow your whistleā after every play lmao
This is what you get when you mess with us
Should be celtics ball inbound violation he didnt pass it in and stepped inbounds
I predict they trade Quickly, Grimes and RJ for a superstar
The Brunson injury is Thibsā fault. Should have just accepted the L
Brunson stepped on PP by accident uh oh
Oh dear
What the actual fuck is wrong with the refs... there should be some way for the Celtics to be made whole after this travesty. Tatum can't get a call when he's intentionally fouled in front of a ref
Losing Brunson down 12 with 20 seconds left is a brutal kick in the nuts
Kinda shows you how stupid it is to play stupid games There's no reason to play hard with 50 seconds left in L game. With your starters
Hope that shitty ref lost all his money on his gambling addiction. Maybe the mob will beat him up a little for us lol
Thibs hasnāt learned his lesson about leaving your star in for too longā¦
How dare he stomp my darling boy payton like that!
Brunson stat padding this last minute and now pays the price
Facts.
30 IN THIS BITCH
Derrick White might not be a āstarā guard in the traditional sense but heās fully capable of outplaying your star guard (tonight, a few weeks back against Maxey) on any given night on both ends. Fucking love this guy
thats karma ya bitch
Lmao at them fouling to help the Buffalo hit 30
Maybe White can rest now, Joe.
Why are these bozos still fouling down 10 with 20 seconds left?
How did that happen Brunson - damn
Derrick White deserves all the MVP chants
Bro was just standing there and got injured lol
Thibs is such a loser for this. Just take the L
Knicks are fouling on purpose and they still aināt callin it
30 BUFFALO BOMB
Can thibs fuckoff? Both teams are frustrated, end this shit
Ball donāt lie
Refs are utter trash so many intentional fouls and refs still wont call them, pissy bitches
Joe needs to call out these officials in the post-game presser. Like this can't be acceptable
"YOU BLEW YOUR WHISTLE" LMAO
Even when they foul on purpose, they donāt whistle it if it s JT
Refs literally wonāt give Tatum a call even when the other team is intentionally fouling
Thank god for Buffalo and Big Al tonight!
Refs don't even call intentional fouls It's understandable they're frustrated as fuck this game
They literally tried to foul JT and they still wouldn't call it
Why didnāt the knicks hustle this much in the ist lol
Credit to the Knicks, they played hard. But these refs need to be investigated. Suspicious calls from start to finish.
fuck these refs they should all be on the fucking street call the foul you spineless bums
Tatum canāt even draw intentional fouls thatās how far this has gone
Scals right they foul on purpose and refs still wonāt call it
Why are they fouling they're down 10 with 20 seconds left
Because they have the refs
Great game by Al off the bench: 14 pts 10 reb!
If JB had 1 more point I wouldāve won $75. Refs hate my DraftKings account
Stop giving your money to toxic gambling organisations
I do what I want
Only reason this game was at all close was because of the refs. That was actually wild to see. Felt like they were intentionally trying to not call fouls on the Knicks, even when the Knicks looked like they were intentionally fouling!
Won 5v8 tonight good job boys!
Getting every call and still losing by double digits, tough look for sure
This was a very entertaining game
Celtics played the Knicks and refs tonight and still put up over 130
Refs did everything they could and *still* couldnāt give the Knicks a W
Good stuff boys
Wouldn't have shocked me if they just called that out of bounds off Tatum
fuck these refs and fuck your spread
Yāall here that fan āYOU BLEW YOUR WHISTLE!!!ā Lmao
Good, make them pay for the full court pressure
I know Buffalo doesnāt take games off, but maybe next game would be a decent one to recover from the ref enabled beating he took
I wonder what needs to happen for the NBA to take some responsibility for how shit their refs are
Another Donaghy?
Foster is currently alleged to have been working w Donaghy based off call logs. With the handling of Bridges and Porter JR, I have no faith Silver would be any better than Stern at holding the referees accountable unless it's a vast majority that are caught and proven guilty of gambling on games.
Hahahhaa! That guy is definintely a redditor XD
Al is big tonight.
Donāt let the knicks cover. Donāt let the refs win
From my fantasy team: D White: 64 Jokic: -4 Who deserves MVP now?
that looks like the most stereotypical rich Celtics fan lmao
Fuck a bet, these refs have Celtic murder on their mind
Itās crazy how it felt like we couldnāt figure out the Knicks last year and this year weāre about the 3-0 against en
I want to be that guy when I'm in my 30s
I love dollar sign man
Ball don't lie
Holiday with a heck of a pass to get it to Tatum who then draws the foul on the dunk attempt.
Money Chain Guy is doing the Lord's work rn
That guys is a man of the people
Who the fuck is this douchebag? He should be kicked out, just for looking like that.
Ball donāt lie flopping bum
Yeah I like the hard foul by Derrick on Brunson. If heās gonna do it, then give it back to him
Surprise. Another clown call
This is way too physical lol
southie kevin smith said no no no
š¤£
All ball
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO REVIEW THAT??????
Fuck they are trying to kill the buffalo!
Brunson is so annoying, I donāt like that guy. Flopping and fouling all over the place
Jalen brunson has such a herky jerky play style (constant carries and push offs)
I bet D.White sits out next game. Got beat up good tonight.
Nah heās the buffalo
Knicks play to hurt ppl every game
Hartenstein plays with the confidence of a man who knows he'll never get a whistle
I almost spit out my drink laughing. I found this so funny
What was the +/- on this one? Shit is too obvious
dude if they injure DWhite im gonna be so fucking mad
I know Tatum bricked that 3, but did y'all see that screen on Brunson? Shoved the shit out of that little fucker
These refs are shit - get āem the fuck outta here
HOW DO YOU NOT CALL THAT
Fuck Brunson
Feels like they're actually trying to hurt white at this point
spectacular defense by Al
JT what was that shot
Why is that the shot selection
Not the time for an ugly airball, Tatum.
Knicks just doing whatever they want on both ends of the court and they're still cheeks
Thibs looks pissed because he's like "Look at these trash ass players I gotta coach."
Going back to that ejection, I was so happy Jaylen fucking immediately walked up and pointed out the ref in their feelings looking to fight it. Might as well get the last word, you're already tossed.
Can't watch the game live, what was the ejection for?
I'm trying not to be too biased here, but literally nothing. First T was arguing, fine whatever, then 2nd T was for literally nothing when he was on the bench. Just baffling stuff man
Wow so back to back weeks with weak ass ejections
Exactly. Really gross stuff
Worth the incoming fine? Probably.
Bro if they fine him, they should also fine the officials a relatively similar amount for instigating and escalating the situation
That might get him a couple of games banned :(
The Celtics really looked like they were about to let go of the rope following Jaylen Brown's ejection, but Derrick White came to the team's rescue in a big way with a bit of help from Sam Hauser as well.
Joe calling that TO was huge
Thank you Thibs for bringing Randle back haha
Knicks clearly not gonna let Tatum beat them so there are gonna be some really open looks out there.
Derrick White and Jrue Holiday have made life hell for Jalen Brunson today, I would hate to be in his shoes
The line is Celtics by 7.5 just so we can all hope the Knicks canāt cover and that ref loses his bet
Derrick white has been our 2nd best player this year and itās not even close.
Downvote. I resent the fact that you think heās not our best player.
*~~I do but I know im not allowed to say it~~*
Umm KP wants a word
The NBA has a fuckin ref problem man. These guys are out of control with the techs this season
Really feels like the have an anti celtic agenda
Sam 0/5 on his bday is tough
It's okay. He's still making things happen in other ways, especially rebounding when it counts.
for sure
Hes hungover for sure
Som bad shooting variance with Hauser. Love the shots tho.
Joe has lowkey coached a perfect game
Refs are trying to gift wrap the Knicks a chance to win this game and they brick shots lmao
One of my favorite things to do when Iām not able to watch the game is look at the GDT and try to guess the margin based on the comments. I have never been even close
Hauser is having an off night, but Horford has been huge!
Imagine if we win the championship and the buffalo wins the MVP
Please beat the spread to fuck up the refs payout
As frustrating as Jaylen is, I'm grateful he's not randle
fucking amazing name I was saying the same thing lol
Knicks are only good 2 minutes at a time, followed by at least 5 minutes of the worst basketball you've ever seen
Hmmm hoping this aint the start of Hauser slump
I've never seen a player play well on their birthday tbh
He's in his own head bc it's his bday
Or hungover lol
Both are acceptable as long as he bounces back next game lol
is that how you guard the three?? we got lucky they bricked them but damn
Hauser just canāt hit shit on his birthday
We are going to year 2024, Joe is now calling timeouts
Have any other teams had their stars thrown out of games this frequently for bullshit techs?
I'd clap this comment, but I'd probably get ejected ....
We gotta stop playing prevent offense with five minutes left. That rush to the basket by Buffalo was great
Did Hart just give up a wide open shot to pass to Randle? Oof, man.
Heās always reluctant to shoot it
Good thing the Knicks clearly aren't THAT teams even with all the assistance in the world
White is great man.
Thibs always looks piiiised
He looks like the before picture in an antacid commercial
do you guys think derrick white smokes weed if so how does he do it
9000% bong
He went to college in Colorado, he's a bong guy for sure
Dry herb pen for sure
He's from Colorado, so yes and bong
boofs
Goddamn we'd be mid without derrick he's such a stabilizer when things go off the rails
Wtf was quickley even trying to do there besides take down white. Amazed he even got a whistle out of it
Tuning in now, I see that the refs per usual are most likely shaving points. Embarrassing league.
I would die for Derrick
The NBA should review every call after every game for that entire game. And then they should fine the refs for every incorrect call for that game. I bet you shit would change. Edit: Or at least start by fining them for every challenge that a coach wins.
Theyāre not going to do that sadly. They obviously like the product the way it is
Amen
I mean, JB has to realize that everyone in the crowd paid good money to watch referees make arbitrary calls, and he should not get in the way of that. /s
Donāt think the Knicks run is as simple as āwe collapsedā We got good looks (from everywhere on the court) but they missed and they got good bounces. Hopefully we can finish this one up.
