This play was sooo memorable

This was game 2 of the season right? Kinda funny in hindsight how the Celtics were considered by far the favourites in the East and that there were articles about if they match up well against the Warriors. Loved this game.

They were so overhyped. I couldn't believe what I was reading from even Raptors fans about the Celtics.

do they each get a block on the stat sheet for this? Or can there only be one block on a shot?

There can only be one, afaik. This one was officially scored as:
Tatum Running Layup Shot: Missed
Block: Green (1 BLK)
Q4 01:14
BOS possession
BOS 99 - 107 TOR

To be fair, green blocked it first, then kawhi swatted, so that's correct

Oh green will be back for sure. Kawhi or no kawhi

That's the moment you saw these are the kind of guys who don't lazy out and give up on an almost certain bucket. How many times have we seen similar plays where if those defenders just tried they have a good chance. Some players just come across as being scared of being posterized. Leave your ego in the locker room. Contest every play

Like taking candy from a baby...

DOUBLE BARRELL ACTION

This was THE game to watch and immediately told me that we were a different team with Kawhi on our roster.

This gave me chills when it first happened, and it still gives me chills watching it again. This was game one, and I couldn't wait to see this group in the playoffs with the experience and tenacity these two brought to the team. It's even crazier watching this again knowing they helped bring us a championship. What a journey.

Bro that’s was game #1 and I was like gah damn these dudes different

second game

They really swatted the Celtics franchise into oblivion.
Give Tatum a break man, he just turned 16
He's barely a teenager at 13.
He’s not even done elementary school yet.
Then we beat the Lakers...then we beat Golden State and all the other contender teams in the regular season.
Man, this season was so special.
Boomed them into irrelevance
