What the heck is going on with Brown? He’s playing so damn lazy and he sucks right now.

It's hard to double KP or anyone else with this lineup.. don't think doubles will happen often.
My fear is they get used to it than when opponents switch it up, they just stand around and ball-watch. I want the reps.
that will definitely happen IMO. It happens all the time.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..

Mazzulla waits to call an timeout until the Heat go on a 8-0 run with Porzingis hobbling the whole way during the run. Good stuff

Jaylen Brown has made bad play after bad play in this game. It's pathetic, really.

Caleb Martin doesn’t play like this vs any other team. He bricks those threes against the rest of the league

Exactly what happened in the Clipper game.

Happy 3rd Quarter Collapse!
The Celtics are in a malaise or just consistently play down to less talented teams.
Better not lose this one with Butler out.
And always: Stop Shooting Threes, when you can score much easier inside.

JB and Joe are the slowest to react on this team. JB really operating in .25x speed with the ball in his hand in the paint while Heat surrounded him. Joe, on purpose with these timeouts, for whatever reason.

I am concerned about the Celtic offense.
Not enough pick and rolls. No real good pick setter, which is part of the problem.
Brown's got lousy hands in a scrum.
These guys make some low IQ passes.
It's not gonna be a cakewalk if they run into a hot shooting playoff team (think Golden State in 2022 or Miami in 2020 & 2023).

Please let KP be okay. Joe the dummy really didn't call timeout right away to at least pull KP out of the game.

I feel if and when Miami goes Zone, having KP and 1Hauser would kill against that defense.

KP won’t survive a series against Miami. We really gotta avoid those guys.

Giving up way too many offensive rebounds again.
