That was……one of the least aesthetically pleasing quarters in the history of the nba.

JB plays so stupid. Yeah let's just throw my body into 3 opposing players with no plan for what to do when we get there.

Brown is a black hole. He’ll never make anyone else better.

JB iso? Really coach? Any random RealGM poster knew that was a terrible idea from the start.

Jrue is 2/13 he's 100% why they are currently losing.

I want to see all 3 of these refs drawn and quartered

This one is rough. Only chance is if Tatum can figure something out in the 4th here it seems

If you put your head down and go 1 on 3, doesn't that mean that there's two open teammates?

The refs have been uneven, but Celts: 17 -24 and Wolves: 10-19.

That's the problem, he didn't think about it.

Holiday 2-13 with plenty of good looks is hurting the team big time tonight. These are the type of defenses you’re gonna see in the playoffs.

Have you watched him prior to that play? Come on.

No, I've only watched one play all game :banghead:

I saw Jrue abuse Conley in the post and easily score right before I posted that. And I've seen him settle us down at times offensively, I've seen him play solid D..

We'd be down double digits if we didn't have Jrue this game.

He's 2/13, 0/4 from 3. He's a -11 so no we'd be up 6 if not for him.
