Morris looked silly getting in IT's face, he has a foot on him. He's a bigger crybaby than I remembered. He was acting like this during the Atlanta series as well.
I am so impressed with Rozier, in over 100 minutes this postseason, he has 0 turnovers...... and he keeps making big shots. Jaylen Brown also played well. Marcus Smart was giving me a heart attack... he would make a stupid play (flopping and getting called for fouls), but he would get a huge hustle rebound a play or two after... I have such a love/hate relationship with Smart.
Being a Celtics fan, I am in heaven watching this team play the last 6 games (last 4 against CHI, and the first 2 against WAS). We are playing with so much passion/heart.
Also... my favorite moment of the game. In the OT, IT missed his defensive assignment, AND forgot to box out, allowing the Wizards to get a wide open rebound and put back. Avery Bradley was livid with Thomas, and was yelling at him right after. On the next play for Boston, Thomas got that basket and foul on Morris (Shot looked like a soccer throw), and Bradley helped Thomas up. While he was helping him up, Thomas looks at Bradley and goes "My bad, my bad", and Bradley hugs him. That is what it's all about, its what made our 07-08 team so great, that tough love. Thomas may have hit that shot, which was a HUGE one, but he still had that defensive mishap on his mind and owned up to it, while still on his back on the floor.
I am really hoping we end this series early (In 4 or 5) so we can be well rested for the ECF. Lets go!!!!
