Sengun's biggest weakness is he's not a very switchable defender, struggles defending perimeter.

Anytime we have Sengun defending out in space vs one of our guards/wings we need to attack that all day.

c'mon Tatum. sengun can't guard you off the dribble. drive it on him, don't settle for the 3!

I blamed stevens for a lack of effort last year..Tatum and Jaylen need to become the leaders as the best players

Starting to believe this roster just sucks. Mostly blaming Danny but Brad deserves some of the blame as well.

Too many useless players that don't do anything well.

There is plenty of talent on this roster. The coaching and development staff is just garbage-tier. The offense is built around the midrange isolation shot and they play 3 non-shooters to start the game. Give me 82 losses, mass firings, and Chet Holmgren.

Because the starting guards for the Celts were ineffective, to say the least, the Celts are in a hole right now.

And this Rockets team is a lottery team.

This is as poorly coached as I've seen Boston in the past 15 years at least.

One lay up in 12 minutes and it was the very last play of the quarter. Everything else was 3's and iso ball.

Lol.. Forgive me Brad.

I still believe the c's are gonna win this game, but there is clearly stuff to be concerned about right now. And ya Jaylen is out, but this Houston team isnt good and they dropped 30 on you in the first.

Maybe it's also the players we have thats contributing to this? Maybe Tatum isn't the one that we think he is? Wasn't Ime supposed to be this strict guy? I see no discipline on either end with this team.

Green was fouled too. We got lucky it wasn't called. They called everything else.

This is rough.

The team I think takes the complexion of its best players, since the roster is built around those guys. The Jays tend to sulk and play low effort when things don't go their way. They gotta mature for the betterment of the team.
