Yeah, as much as everyone hates him tonight they're running a strong side zone against him.
Play him off ball then. Joe has to be better here..

I don't love how we have to keep saying we don't love it because he keeps doing it.

tatum is the best ball handler on our team. pretty crazy for a guy 6'8"/6'9" to have that kind of handles.
as good as anyone on the planet who's 6'8" or taller at handling the rock.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything

This is not a game we'd like to lose, esp after leading almost all the way. Finish them boys, just a bit more composure and then we're good!

If he's going to control the offense late he has to move with pace and urgency.

There were two dudes defending him, giving him only the bad stepback as an option. At that point the other 4 guys on offense have to move, instead of ball watching.

Too bad our coach actually wasted one with a challenge 2 minutes in the 3rd quarter.. Just so Al horford didn't pick up his 3rd foul on a rebound..
It was borderline stupid then it is much worse looking now.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..

We haven’t even started running offense until about 6 on the clock so many times this game already. It’s crazy.
This is how we run our 4th quarter offense.

Smart move by Mazzulla to take out: Hey, I'm Just Like Manu Ginobili In My Mind, Smart,
who was trying to shoot the Celtics out of the lead at 5 - 14.

If we lose this series I'm ready to move on from Tatum

Doc’s done a good job managing Embiid. He’ll get touch fouls all 4th and our offense is as stagnant as ever. We shall see what happens here.
