I feel like I live on a different planet sometimes, lol.

I'm pretty pro-Smart but personally I still fail to understand why he continues to take shots that everyone knows he shouldn't take. Other people's limitations aren't, as a general matter, intentionally self-inflicted.

He should shoot open 3s. He shouldn't shoot contested 3s with time on the shot clock. He'd be a lot more valuable than he already is if he stopped this insanity.

Right on. There are like 7-8 rotation players who are doing worse for us this year.

No?

Man I don’t mind watching the offense struggle early in the season but this defense the past few games is utter crap and that’s more concerning

I feel like the Celtics make life way harder than it needs to be. Lol

Terrible defense to start the quarter. Absolutely awful.

Dude isn't worth an MLE-level contract going forward?

How about Hayward delivering zero for us? Is that too real to talk about?

He as an excuse other than punching picture frames for the time being

Rozier should never be allowed to run the offense.

Why we bad?

At what point do we stop saying this team will gel, they need time to heal bla bla bla. There’s little chemistry on this team
Right now and we have the same players as last year. Just doesn’t make sense, there’s no flow

I’d play all hustle guys right now

This game is over. Utah isn't even good on offense shooting 60+ percent.

There were like 10 of us saying that from the jump this year who got called haters for it.

Just watch the games and tell me otherwise.

Theyre just hitting every shot. They havd a TS% of 80 thus far, ridiculous

CeltsFlow · Post #459 » by **CeltsFlow** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:57 am

Next couple of minutes will seal the game more or less, gotta come out of this timeout strong

Hayward is useless out there. I understand he cannot move like he used to but the guy flat out cannot shoot either. If he is not shooting well why is he even on the floor.

Also considering no one can score on this team going to be impossible to come back from this with no Irving.

PS yet another Average NBA player is making the celtics his bitches.
