TV coverage on ESPN is very thin.

Today only Denver and LAC.

Boston looking good.

LeBron no doubt will announce a farewell tour for 2025/26 soon enough. What a circus that will be.

Half time. Last two minutes all Celtics 13-3

Celtics up 61-45

Knick's have missed 10 from the stripe and Boston have shot poorly all round. Brunson on three fouls helps.

Every opportunity take Brunson to the hoop and if not move it around through the hands to get better shots.

Edit. Make that 11 missed from the stripe and Boston hit their last 5 shots to improve their shooting percentage to okay level.

Edit. They actually hit 11 of their last 13 They were poor up to then.

One to go.

Boston by 9. (Was 6).

Knicks very good for most of that quarter as the early lead was 20.

Game on.

Pretty standard from them these last few years, though.

Massive lead, then decide to just not play for a quarter. Can hope they only do that for a game or two a series...

Fantastic game. Really enjoyed it.

Denver kept at it and won it by 2 at the buzzer with a 3 by Gordon.

Jokic was magnificent. With 42 points and a whopping 22 rebounds.

Two road wins !

We have looked far better on the road this playoffs. Been poor at home so I’m hoping we can change that
