That should be a motivating factor for Boston in this series.
They need that to be motivated? It's the NBA Finals.

I look for Tatum to have a big game tonight or Thursday. He's due.
Tatum and Brown in particular have a history of complaining to be slighted for individual awards and recognition. My bet is that seeing NBA superstars toss their support to "Steve" (haha) has to feel like a slight just through their eyes. I dunno. I don't care what they use for motivation. Winning is everything.

I dont think Tatum is going to do it. 25 points on poor shooting maybe. Celtics need to hope for a derrick white or grant Williams game and to get 20 plus out of Tatum brown.

My current thinking is Celtics blowout win tonight, loss at the Garden, loss at GSW - failure to closeout close game strikes again. I hope that I'm wrong.

They've been able to win two Game 7s already. I have a feeling whoever wins tonight will win the series.

I'm not backing off my current pick of Celtics in seven.

Why’s Steph doing so well? Thought the Celts had DPOY.
