Brown is making some of the toughest fade away but I really don't like this offense.. Everyone standing on the 3 point line why he takes the toughest shots
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Slow or wrong reads. Even the stuff that work are awkward. No flow.

Pretty sure Tatum traveled on his last two scores. But whatever, everyone travels I guess.

It'd look even worse if everyone was standing inside the 3 point line.

So I guess someone cutting to the basket is against your basketball philosophies..Certainly against Joes...

Celtics aren’t playing bad, but the defense has been questionable.
