So far, Nesmith has gotten away with 2 flops, a standover taunt, and knocked KP out with a flagrant non call.

The space they keep giving Haliburton is shocking. Shocking. Dude sees nothing but rim on every pick they set for him.

It’s factually inaccurate.

IDK. They don't get to the line, like former Celtics Stars did.
It really changes the Game.

And now we're in Foul Trouble, and down a Starter?


Tatum and Porzingis both get to the line a bunch, it’s just what it is. The rest of the team not as much, but that’s the same for most teams.

Turnover out of the timeout.

Need White and Tatum in the 4th.

We really need a dependable backup wing. Hauser is just way to inconsistent.

Can’t miss 7 FTs in a quarter. That’s why the game is closer than it should be.

I don’t understand giving Halliburton that much space shooting.

I never thought that Nesmith would be a Starter.
More like an Overseas player.

Tatum having a great night but I wish he'd start getting more of his points from more physical play. I just don't trust his step back and iso game come crunch time.

Tatum scores more points per game on post ups than any other wing in the league. More than Giannis, more than LeBron.
