FWIW, I like what I'm seeing from a gameplay POV.

This is a Celtic controlled game if Tatum and Schroeder hit their shots.

Also, how many free throws does Tatum have this year?

One? Soft.

0-15 from 3?

I thought J-Rich hit a 3. the one where he was wide open in the corner. Did he have a foot on the line?
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 the c’s game if they want it. They were a Harrell half court shot away from a 3 point game at half despite abysmal 3 pt shooting. Just need Tatum to get on board

Forgot to post in the post game notes thread for last game but good lord when jabari Parker is the guy giving the most effort we have a serious problem.

As for this game peep our 3 point % that’s about how I’m feelin.

But here is the thing.. Schroder's best asset is his ability to penetrate. But as a starter he is watching the ball in the hands of the Js.. so he never really gets the chance.. he just basically stands around the perimeter.. as a non shooting threat..
He's on pace for 8 assists tonight.

If the Celts make 3s in the 2nd half then this is a Celtics win.

The Wiz are good, but they're not that good.

Exactly.
They're far from invincible.

We need to give them a loss.

Naw. We missed all our 3's.

I'll try to sit here quietly, and hope for the best, but I know what I see and don't see.

It doesn't matter IF Boston turn this on or not come second half. I already see HORRIBLE coaching philosophies that more often than NOT will under-achieve. Boston will have some moments, some good quarters, some good games. Especially if Tatum and Brown have one of their moments. But Ime is NOT COACHING UP anything..

Sue me like last year or 2 when I criticized things about Stevens, and people said I was beaching.. Though I ended up right by far..

It's really sad they many can't see it.. OH well.. welcome to casual fan syndrome.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Outside of Brown and Tatum missing 3s, everyone else is on par

This team needs a major roster overhaul. This is what happens when paying Smart 20m a year is a priority.

Who needs shooting when your team can *potentially* be good defensively?

We need to take it to the Basket.

IDK, if we should shoot from 3?
Law of Averages, gotta be on our side?

The issue is in roster construction, imo. No spacing. The only formula here is one to disgruntle stars.

That should have been a No-Call, at the most.

spacing = shooters.. shooters need to e played and developed.. not playing career lower than average shooters. meanwhile Grant with 2 airball 3s already..

We need some more Scorers. Especially tonight.

I know that some of our good players are Out.
But, it's gotta be a Next-Man-Up philosophy.
