72 pts at the half minus Embiid, Maxey & Batum. The 76er locker rooms toasts the Celtics piss-assed defense. Not trying hard enough. Coasting because the offense is smooth but the way they give up the ball and their puss-assed coverage could cost the Celtics this game.

Jaylen is like 2-20 and airballed everything that he didn't get blocked. It's a tight race but there's no clear winner at this point.

Should be up 25 playing the Sixers w/o Biid & Maxey.

Disgusting effort.

Awful lazy D.

Al & Derrick have been great.

Sam shooting phenomenally again.

JT nice line but WAY WAY WAY TOO SLOPPY.

#7 has sucked in EVERY ASPECT OF THE GAME!
Sit him & play Lucky!
He should return his salary.

Never seen a dude turn the ball over so much from high dribbling and then claiming he got fouled. Or throwing a pass to a dude covered one pass away. Like WTF are you actually seeing?

It’s high school level ****

That was not messing around, but this is.

It's a Celtics win.

The only question is by how many points.

I've been very sick lately and the game is doing nothing for my perspective.
And these ESPN announcers are pull out hair out boring.

Just Caught up to all the action... Tatum is playing too **** chill..

But my far greater thought is thinking that not only is brown the worst contract in basketball. I'm starting to believe he is the worst contract in sports .. Paying that man 300 million dollars to be continually atrocious in equivalent to his contract He's going to haunt us all season long.. But hey he may get A couple of minutes where he scores uncontested in the fast break to make his boxscore look reasonable..

And of course, our coach can't bring anything to the table to make our players play hard.. The players are playing lazy as s***But what kind of leader in our head coach can't enforce better Effort...
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Has Tatum ever had 5 TOs in a half? JB only has 3? Felt like he had 5 too.

Pritchard was a big zero and got a ton of minutes. I’d rather see Banton out there more - his length might at least bother Curry/MJ ….. I mean Beverly/Melton.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

JTs idol is Kobe, but he's got the farthest thing from Kobe's mentality.

This half truly underscores just how valuable Porzingis is to this team. Without him we turn back into the same sloppy team from the last few years that tries to win by shooting a bunch of 3's driving into traffic and praying not to get stripped and occasionally playing defense when it matters. KP changes EVERYTHING.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!
