I hate Powell always hitting BS shot vs us.

That thing I wrote about only 3 TOs for the teams combined in the first half? Ancient history.

Actually, I probably misread the box score. Never mind ...

Jaylen lost his man

Fournier is not a good individual defender. Getting cooked. JB just lost Powell. Sigh.

Nothing comes easy for the Celts this season.

If defense is required I'm not too confident we can win this! :lol:

I thought Stevens was a good defensive coach?

Celtics not getting calls the first few minutes of the quarter, Tatum got hacked and Fournier clearly got held.

This game is like the OK Corral.

Better handle would increase his game dramatically. He's can definitely flash it once in a while but can also have a stretch of turnovers and dribble of his ankle for no reason

Does any team get a worse whistle on their own floor than us?

Please TT, stop forcing up low percentage hooks, if you can't get close to the rim, pass it out.

More of that, Jaylen. Take advantage of the single coverage.

Showing highlights of the 1981 Conference Finals against 76ers. The greatest series in the history of Celtics basketball. Check it out sometime.

CJ is too quick for Tatum.

Game is far more elite shooting right now than bad D at least the first half for sure.

This is looking like the weak a$$ defense we played 1st half vs spurs.

At least our offense is good too so it's close.

Let's pick up the D. They are moving the ball well and they are hitting shots. We just need to dig deep, put in the extra effort to rotate and get out on their shooters.

Great to see Fournier hitting his shots!
