They had a vote last night about stop play all together. End the season now. Lakers, and Clippers both voted to end the season, the rest did not. Another meeting at 11am with the players. The big thing about that time...there's a board of governors meeting with the NBPA at the same time.

Sounds like the players are going to vote one last time, and tell the BOG what they are going to do.

This delay should help Lowry get a bit more healthy before having to play in next game. Small victories.

The Raptors/Celtics series will start on Sunday afternoon.

OG thought Kawhi's shot was too theatrical and one-upped it with a ridiculous shot and no reaction

Like Bieksa commented on it in the intermission... he made that shot and acted like he had made it 45 times before.

Yikes. Hopefully they show up in Game 6. I can't see either of these teams losing to Miami next round. Barring a Milwaukee miracle....

Tough. NOthing was going.

Twitter was not having Nick Nurse last night, but he's at a boiling point with the refs it seems. And he was looking at the score and I'm thinking he was playing the long game with his attitude towards the refs.

K-Low = Future Statue
Smart = Flopping Sonic the Hedgehog. Only time he stood on his feet was after the game chirping the Raps.
Brown = Whiner ("Grown Men should be able to control themselves. Especially coaching staff". He said that in regards to Nick Nurse being in the corner when they threw it to Tatum but it was actually Nurse and it was a turnover.

I found there was lots of diving from the Celtics in that game. Funny to watch when they play it back in slow-motion.

Also, it's painful to watch the refs miss the travel calls time and time again, and not just on the Celtics. Both teams had a few steps in there.

Refs were terrible on both sides.

In the 4th, Minute 5 to minute 1 they were calling everything, last minute, nothing! In OT, and double OT it was ridiculous too. Refs were on Boston side early, but it ended up decently even at the end of the game. Tough to defend though when you're in foul trouble early.

Well, that's just the way it goes sometimes.

They really have nobody to blame but themselves. 18 turnovers. Absolutely brutal. I think that is where the loss of Kawhi really starts to show itself, in the sense that last season, whenever things were getting out of hand and the opponent was going on a run, or the Raps were panicking and scrambling, you could give the ball to Kawhi and he could take that one on one and calmly drill a bucket to slow things down. This team unfortunately doesn't really have that guy.

The craziest part is despite how poorly they handled the ball, they were still only 5 points off. I just hope Pascal in particular doesn't completely lose his confidence following this postseason.
