The Celtics starters are shooting 31.6% from 3 in their last 10 games. That's 2nd worst in the league.
The Celtics bench are shooting 45.6% from 3 in the same span. That's 2nd best in the league.

Good thing Our Coach doesn't want us shooting 3s.

I think what you mean to say was Long Live Sam Hauser who shot 26/50 (52%) from 3 as a bench player last 10 games?

Go Celtics.

I can’t get modded fairly, so I think that I may be pretty much done posting here. Arrivederci nerds.

I would like the see a few games against **** teams in a row.

What is it...4 games against sub 500 teams on seadon?

Compare that to 9 games against sub 500 for the bucks.

I DNGAF WHAT RECORD THE OPPONENT HAS.

I want to see 20 straight dominant games where our MVP actually dominates, takes control consistently, cuts out the 7-like brain dead TOVs & stops playing like a softy all too often, where #7 is SUBBED when he plays selfishly & stupidly (or voluntarily switches to underwater synchronized swimming w Doris Burke), where Zinger-Jrue-Derrick excel, where Sam continues to shoot the lights out, where Al focuses on D & makes his wide open 3s, & where Sam Cassell or JVG causes testicular injury to Bubbles the Dunce & coaches the team permanently.

A good start would be to kick the asses of the Knicks, Cavs twice & Magic twice AT HOME (solid EC teams) before we go to the West Coast to play the NORCAL & SOCAL teams!

Lebron James who is 60 years old has more drives per game and scoring more on drives than Jayson Tatum, who is just entering his prime. Have some shame, JT lol. Enough with the pullup clankers from ATB.

He should workout in the offseason with LeBron more, and KD less..

Offensively or defensively, first units or second units. Boston is on a whole other level when KP plays..

Knicks injury report is clean. Looks like Celtics' too. KP PROBABLE is essentially KP AVAILABLE. Queta is with the team.

After 20 games LAST season (16-4), Celtics had FIVE players (min 200 mins played) shooting over 40% from 3. Brown, Tatum, and Smart were shooting below career average from 3.

After 20 games THIS season (15-5), Celtics have ONE player (min 200 mins played) shooting over 40% from 3. Brown, Tatum, Porzingis, Horford, and Pritchard are all shooting below career average from 3.
