Celtics can't get everything going at once in any game. They score the other team lights it up. They play D they go on 5 minute droughts. The are in a good spot considering how good Dallas is playing.

Absurd shooting by Mavs. Let's hope they go cold in 2nd half. Or we cooked.
Slightly impressed we put up 50+ to stay close.

All in all, not horrible. Jaylen has looked improved. Al has not looked good to me. Tatum has been a mixed bag. Rozier was ass.

Only 3 down despite Mavs rain of 3s. Pretty amazing. Mavs cool off just a little bit, and we've got this - if only someone will tie Rozier to the bench.

I can't recall watching a game like this, both teams red hot.

Seriously, if we can get a top 35 pick for the guy, take it right damn now.

A #16 pick, Starting Caliber PG?
Pass.

If he were a starting caliber PG, I'd agree with this.


not even close to 30 teams have better starting pg's than how he plays when he starts IMO. he's poopoo off the bench every season though, it's weird.

I hope Rozier doesn’t play this half. He’s terrible.

I'll take it. Seems like everything comes hard for us, and everything easy for opponents. I wish Brad would recognize when one guy is sucking ass and put him on the bench.

Terry Rozier, is the PG we had going to within 5 mins of the Finals.
He's nowhere near Kyrie's talent. But Rozier is a Starter.

He didn't just prove that last season with Kyrie out? Memory loss?

If Ainge is such a great GM, he'd be able to trade Rozier for Doncic during halftime.

Terry has shown to be a solid starter. But off the bench he really does nothing you want out of a point guard.

He got hot for a few weeks and even then he wasn’t consistent.

Being down 3 after that 1st quarter? I'll take it.

Never minding the fact that the guy would be a massive net negative as a starting PG, not how I would look at the value of it.

A 16th overall pick giving us 3.25 years of a viable, low-cost rotation player, plus...

A top 35 pick that gives us a 30% chance at doing the same for another 3-7 years?

OR

0.75 season's worth of an 8th-9th man who is disrupting chemistry while going on a year-long audition for a contract with another team?

More of a pace thing with Rozier, he thrives when he can run but he’s arse when he runs a half court offence. Need to speed it up when he comes in
