We're getting killed by turnovers and offensive rebounds.

Stop the fancy passes & the sloppy TOs, you dick wads!

This is where the game gets away from the Celtics. Keep double-teaming and leaving 3 point shooters wide open. Smart and Kemba do this too much.

Smart's flinging passes as if he's still facing the Rockets and Hornets. This Sixers defense is stout, someone tell him.

Eh, I don’t think Jaylen will ever be an average playmaker. It’s just not natural to him, like zoya said above.

He is a scorer, through and through.

Disagree. You can say the same exact thing about Tatum


You really can’t though, he passes the ball far more, and turns it over less.

In fact, according to BBall Index’s player tracking statistics, Jayson Tatum has the 3rd-best scoring gravity in the NBA and the 9th-best playmaker rating among starting forwards.

Kemba is the worst defender in the league

Celtics stupidly keep doubling because of him and then brown for the most part gets lost trying to track someone. Also Kornet is a big liability out there

Smart is going full ass mode today. He needs to hit the bench for PP

I suppose this is when it falls apart

Oh well
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Would have helped him a bit if he did a pushup or lifted a free weight at some point in his life though.
