Celts Sippin' Coffee, Birds Steal Their Cup! NBA Cup Loss vs ATL 11/12

[playa-hater]

Dont really care much about losses unless they are this bad. Just Pathetic showing. 25 more shot attempts and 20 turnovers. If White didn't hit so many ridiculous shots they lose by double digits.

This is exactly it...

Did people think they'd be worse without Trae?

It feels like they’re too complacent. They got the monkey off their back so no worries. Anyway they have no business losing these games and despite their record this team literally is a 3 point chucking team.

Their defense certainly is better without Trae. But with Trae and quite a few others out, this loss, at home, to that team is/was pathetic.

I hate these NBA Cup courts. All of them are ugly. I hope they do away with them soon.. With that said the team played lazy tonight. Lazy passes that resulted in turn overs, zero effort on the boards and so son and so on. I can't remember the last time Brown and Tatum played good consistent defense this season.

Eeh, the defense has been bad all around, not just Brown and Tatum.

This guy is Pissing me off …

What weird timing for this post. Kornet got 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, all in just 4 minutes. Aside from White he was maybe the most efficient Celtic tonight.

He was ****! Was replace by Quetta right away .. same **** happened against bucks! Your probably on YouTube watching kornet special nights rather Thn the game … those 4 mins could’ve been contributed to Quetta… this bum got to be waived.

I don't have anywhere near the sentimental feeling many on here have. So on that Note, Al Horford, outside of making occasional Big 3 point shots, looks totally useless on the backboard and/or defense. That and the 5 out system when Al is in makes us just settle for 3s.. what happens when they aren't falling??

Queta and his energy need to start.. ASAP!

[Bar Fight]

If it makes anyone feel any better, Erik **** Spoelstra just pulled a Chris Webber to cost his team a victory lol. I guess nobody immune to braindead late game decision making

That’s his schtick. To hate on Kornet. Did the same with Baynes.

I believe we were winning 116-115 and Tatum took a 3 point shot lol. This guy . He’s taking more 3s this year than last year. He needs to stop that.

Really miss the Porzingis offense. Post ups, I'd say, are down this year. For me it's not the scoring threat it's the passing hub. They keep trying to force lobs to Queta that are Rob level and he's not that. I would keep tossing some to him as the roller when it's favorable, but I much prefer he get a few post touches when he's out there.

ATL took 3PTAs as well but, man, we just shoot so many 3 PTAs, it’s like even when D. White is bailing us out with tough makes, there aren’t necessarily 45-55 good looks from three during an NBA game.

Sometimes seems like our players are literally going backwards to get behind the line, which I’m not really for that. The team that attacks with force has the basketball gods on its side.

[Infinite Llamas]

The offense is so stagnant. It doesn’t move. And when it does move it’s stolen.

Tatum barely drove at all tonight. His shot didn’t fall and he refused to drive. At least Brown abandoned the three mostly but Tatum…man. Soooo tired of his three point chucking.

[Infinite Llamas]

Also I want to see a game where White takes the most shots. It’s long overdue.

Tatum is taking more 3s this year by a considerable amount. Last year he took 8.2 attempts. This year it’s 11.6. He never took that many . Dude needs to stop that.

Crappy loss

Losing to them at full strength would be worse, in my opinion.

[Shak_Celts]

We lost. Wasn’t pretty, it was uglier than ugly. Moving on.

[Curmudgeon]

Well deserved loss. There were stretches where they looked like a junior high school team.
The Atlanta general manager who drafted Trey Young instead of Luca Doncic ought to be drawn and quartered. Atlanta is a decent team without Young. They defended well.
