Teams love getting Horford on the switch and always he gets cooked.

Low scoring game but Cs needed to defend better. We couldn't stop anyone tonight. Even their role players are going off.

Minny scoring whenever they want to

Set a pick, sit behind it while the big man guards you from 10 ft, shoot a open three. Works every time lol

When will people stop witn the coaching. This group is soft as well. I don’t care who coaches them

They played better under Ime. They actually looked like an amazing defensive team under Ime.

That was a vastly different group of players

There's still time on the clock. That early three was so unnecessary.

Best team all year... Tell me once more what happened last year on the playoffs. Tell me whats happening now against the Wolves. It's the same damn thing. Things are repeating when they shouldn't. You're just as clueless or chose to be blind. You really think this team can win a championship with this style of playing? Nah, you trippin'

Cry harder dude.

Some of you are like hysterical children.

Teams lose some games occasionally. More in news at 5.

Don’t know why Porzingis sat today instead of tomorrow when Horford plays Giannis and the Bucks well….stupid ass decision.

Jaylen Brown cannot be our 2nd best player if we are to have any shot at winning a championship. Zingis is going to have to be that guy every series and Holiday or White need to be our 3rd best player.

this group of players is supposed to be better. And they have just as much defensive ability as that team did.

The 40/35 shooter just turned into Kyrie in the final minutes. Just like Mathurin he will go back to his inefficient nights after this game.
