He had him after the pump fake, then just back steps and shoots a three... Honestly

Low % shot because there was a defender.

Just go for the 2 then get a stop on defense.

It was an all in shot.

Yeah right! I may not think he’s better than JB like many have professed, but he’s a really good player! Can’t take that away from him when he has a mediocre game. Pritchard is also good, but I still think he’s out of his element as a starter.

We should have won this one but I knew when jb went on a heater in the first half it was too good to be true. Not only do defenses key in on you more, you’re also pretty tired.

Getting nothing out of Pritchard hurts because with a full juggernaut team we counted on his magic from the bench. He’s hit or miss this season.

White was the number 4-5 with healthy KP and Jrue interchangeably, now we want him to be a consistent #2. I’m more confident in him doing it than I am about Pritchard being a long term starter.

Hauser, like most shooters, have a hot run in them but once it’s done it’s hard to replicate from half to half. You can see this throughout history. I didn’t think he’d be fire flames again.

We need some consistency out of more than JB and Neemy. That’s why our record isn’t better.

White is shooting 30% for the SEASON. He shouldn’t be a starter. Do you not realize how bad his numbers are? Those are g league numbers. I hate how Celtics fans just like to be delusional about players. This supporting cast is awful

Well, we gave a good fight
PP and White throwing bricks and the Wolves needed a very lucky shot to seal the game. I am encouraged
Brown shows he is alpha and Queta becoming a monster

We needed some Hugo today against Edwards
And we need a better center off the bench (why didn't Amari get a few minutes?). Garza is a good 3-4 center and will be getting better, but he is not good enough right now to be the 2nd center
