Jaylen brown has been like the 5-6 best player this series instead of the clear #2..

Just pathetic defense. Play some D and we walk away with the win.

15 made 3-pointers in a half, only to be behind by 7 points?
That' would be a pathetic defensive performance.

I missed the team news. Why is Grant playing all of a sudden?

Disgraceful first half. Let’s see if this team knows how to make adjustments.

Not going to win many playoff games on the road letting up 74 points in a half on 65% shooting. Pretty disgusting.

That said, I still expect the Celtics to win

Joe should just play PP, Davison, Kornet, Muscala, and Griffin in the 2nd half to make a point.

All that in a game that started out low-scoring. :) (4-4 in the first 2:53)

A lot of points given up but we're fine. I expect to see adjustments made. ATL hit us with both barrels and we're only down 7. I'm still not impressed with Atlanta nor worried about us.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Hit 15 three’s and still losing by 7 lol if ATl doesn’t get this one it’s for sure a sweep. This is their chance. Let’s hope they blow it.
