Tacko better not be on this roster next year.

Tatum mailed it in . Disnal performance from our “ superstar “. Someone needs to get in his ear

So unsurprisingly after playing two crap teams and looking good they just look like the same old Celtics where they're not passing the ball and not playing defense and one of their best players which is Tatum this game, decided not to show up.

Our starters have disappointed. Stars step up in big games. Let's see what Tatum and co. do in 2nd half.

They were not posting up Embiid the last few minutes and they still had wide open threes. That’s super **** lazy.

If putting Tacko on Embiid gets him to shoot threes all day, I'll take it

The score ain't lying. When you only shoot twice every three possessions you get your ass kicked.

Either Embiid is tired which is why he shot back-to-back threes, or he's legit afraid of Tacko.

Could have been worse, but could have been a damn sight better.

The defense of this group (minus Tacko) that finished the quarter was pretty bad. Mostly due to laziness.
