No Holiday Magic For Us! Loss vs ORL 12/23

[bisme37]

Bah humbug you guys we lost the big game ugh!

It was an old school defensive battle with both teams playing very physical and making it hard for the other to get into their offense. Gotta give the Magic credit.

Celts had the lead at half and it looked like our talent would win the day, but then we came out blah in the 3rd, gave up another run at the start of the 4th, and it was Orlando that started making shots and pulled ahead. C's fought back and tried to steal it late, but in the end we came up short. Too many turnovers and not enough assists tonight.

Tough loss! Annoying and dumb imho! Let's take it out on Philly!

Christmas game vs Sixers on Wednesday, Go C's!

They deserve an ass of shame thread after that one. Pitiful performance.

[SuperDeluxe]

Soulless, discombobulated Celtics. Sloppy passing. 13 assists, 18 turnovers.

Horrible game by Porzingis, his worst in green. Someone pls tell Brown he's still awful directing the offense.

Hauser invisible, Pritchard ordinary.

All-around suck, well-deserved loss.

I have something nice to say though: The Magic are building something good.

Too little too late in the end. Abysmal 3rd quarter doomed this team. Need to see more consistent good basketball from this team.

[Smart2Nesmith43]

All you guys asking for the Celtics to take fewer threes should be extatic tonight. Only 32 attempts.

Unfortunately, I was right when I said this is anybody’s game because Boston absolutely doesn’t take teams seriously when their best players are out.

Really nothing good to take out of this game terrible three-point shooting not a whole lot of assists and Boston was just outplayed badly

[redslastlaugh]

Orlando is a tough, physical team but, man, do they live by the motto of the old Riley Knicks: foul every possession, the refs can’t call a foul every time down.

Wish we played more than eight dudes. Only JT was out and man did we feel shallow depth-wise.

Philly on Christmas Day should be fun! Onto the next!

[itrsteve]

We’re going to lose games. Orlando played well while short handed.

Hopefully a stinker out of the way before Christmas Day, Philly is coming in with a better L10 record, hopefully Boston wakes up.

[Jammer]

5 Turnovers EACH by Brown, Holiday and White. That's the game right there.

Shooting 8-32 from 3 didn't help, but that's not why the Celtics lost!

[ConstableGeneva]

Tatum sat to make a stronger case for MVP. Lol.

Improve our defense please regardless. We had no business losing that game. Shame.

[Parliament10]

Don't take anyone for Granted.
Learn the Lesson.

Onto the next one.

All you guys asking for the Celtics to take fewer threes should be extatic tonight. Only 32 attempts.

And how many they made though? Their 3 point shooting is down a couple of percentages this year.

[bfchs123]

Why did Pritchard get no burn in the end? Literally only Brown could score

Any why would an Al contested three at the end ever be the shot? Wtf was he thinking

[RB34]

I’m insanely sick of Marc Davis, every single time that guy has a Celtics game it’s full of controversy.

I hope Santa doesn’t bring that clown any presents.

It's worrisome. That's Magic's MO. Take away the three.

But again, it's the defense in the 2nd half that failed us. Magic were.scoring off simple screening actions. ORL without their two stars shouldn't be scoring 60 in a half.

Harder playing team was rewarded by officiating and lucky bounces too.

[Celts17Pride]

Celtics let up 21 points, 22 points in the first two quarters. Celtics came out lazy in the 3rd quarter and let up 36 points. Magic had momentum the rest of the way.

Look, I know we’re suppose to be all sad or whatever. But thanks to Drew Carter I got to look up Trevelin Queen, what a friggin story.

I don’t care who you root for, this is fantastic

Merry Christmas to this young man and those close to him.

Brad, get on the phone.

[Bar Fight]

I have no faith in these guys to get stops when they need them in crunch time. They couldn't get stops in crunch time against Tristan da Silva and Trevelin Queen lmfao

[Fierce1]

We're just going to have to get used to this.

Last season the Celtics were all in all season long.

This season they're opting for more player management.

JT was not supposed to miss this game until the very last minute.

The offense is just not the same without JT.

He's awful. Almost as bad as Brothers and worse than Foster.

The NBA is full of "bad apples". It wasn't just Donaghy.
