I agree but Josh Hart def shoulders a lot of blame...this might be his worst game of his career.

I love hart but he gets torched by Tatum and brown all the time. Those guys have his number


they are bigger than him so its not an ideal matchup...but man the turnovers have been bad. And even when he's on pritchard he refused to close out 2 different times for wide open 3's.

its like he thinks everyone shoots like him sometimes. I get it if your struggling but at least show some effort and guard.

Yea idk wtf he’s doing today :-?

The only chance this team has in the playoffs will be having both Mitch and OG to give them an actual defense

Guys just drive right at Kat, he's no deterrent.

Healthy Mitch will help but not so much against this team
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

This team deserves all the criticism right now. They’re playing like a team that’s on a back to back. Except they’ve had 4 days of rest.

Thibs is a relic coach who doesn't seem to understand that you have to take away the three ball from teams who heavily rely on high volume 3PAs.

He needs to go. Listen to how his former players talk about him. They love him, yeah, but it's not all good. Dude is stubborn and stock in 2001.

Announcer just said: "Celtics just playing with a bit more force on both ends of the court"

Force aka effort/intensity

Guys came out like they're playing the Wizards.

The coach has no idea how to devise a strategy and approach a game vs the Celtics.

Went through the deadline said nah we got enough. That’s the most frustrating part. Even if Mitch plays well we are still lacking and Thibs would go to anti spacing lineups.

Coaching.

Like the 3 point line should be the primary focus of the defense.



Yea especially for a team that shoots more 3’s than 2’s. But hey, Thibs is the most prepared coach
