Just pathetic. Sit the starters and play the bench. Maybe they'll at least give some effort, like Brissett did.

The back to back excuse doesn't compute. Especially when you're resting all stars specifically to be fresh for this game lol

Seriously can’t believe I’ve just watched five minutes of Pritchard and Holiday throwing up bricks while Tatum is out there.

Stevens needs to get a few actual NBA players on the bench instead of guys that belong in the G-League or overseas.

I need a replay of how many steps he took when he walked it backwards under the net in the first quarter. No travel called, of course.

If the Celtics player will play like this, they should just asked the coach to rest them.

Unfortunately Milwaukee's not a team you can shoot 7% from 3:00 and expect to keep the game close.

But this is what this team is honestly. When they can't hit threes they lose.

Not like I didn’t see this one coming

LOL. Celtics can't hit the broadside of a barn, and the Bucks are hitting everything. Double whammy.

When we can't hit threes, and also twos, and the opponent makes them, and we get outrebounded by over 100% we lose.
