Also, not sure this Birch-Vucevic lineup really serves any purpose other than stifling the offense.

Well at least they aren't getting wide open 3 pt shots this half because Vuc is out guarding his man

Vuc needs to stay his ass in the paint and operate from there. This team is too little to be shooting 3s out there.

Sad that there are more Boston fans in the arena than our own.

Every shot from Vuc is always short. He gets open looks and can never make anyone pay. I'm tired of on having to rely on him for us to win ball games.

Vucevic also having a game from hell. Missing a lot of easy ones around the basket. Short rimming and airballing 3's. This is shaping up to be a really rough game for the whole team. Not much positive other than a short run in the 2nd quarter by the bench.

Luckily Hayward missed that last 3 but if you look, Theis screened for him and Vuc was 30 ft away under the basket.

It's like watching a replay every game. I literally feel like I'm watching the same game over and over because we lose the same exact way everytime.

Like sk.one said before I just stare at the screen and just shake my head and the craziness because I dont understand how it goes down the same exact way everytime. I'm so tired of it

this offense baffles me, you want to create spacing by having your center hover around the free-throw extended to the three point line.....this is in turn supposed to create wide open spaces for our guards and wings to drive the ball....but WE'RE NOT ATTACKING THE RIM.....instead we want to post up AG.....dafuq?

Celtics just getting whatever they want. Dribble penetration without any resistance. Open shots off screens.

Ross deserves to be on a trash team like this. He’s nothing but a Ricky Davis with a neon green light.

AG is our only player that will consistently take a last second half court shot.
