They are packing the paint against Tatum and shading heavily towards him. You cannot Settle for step back three's. My god you are shooting terrible from the outside move the ball or attack.

Hard enough to win the minutes with Jokic on the floor. Can't even win with Jokic off and Tatum on. JT got to be better.

J’s need to step it up!

Look at the difference in how Denver gets their threes and how we get ours. It's not even close. Sometimes we revert to our worst habits.

Don’t like the Celtics defensive strategy all night. I mean why isn’t Jrue on Murray? Just a poor game plan in my opinion.

Celtics letting 2 guys beat them. Adjust!

Let’s just continue to play the double big lineup

Murray is one hell of a baller.

If Tatum is on, fine, shoot threes. But you’re not and he gets so tempted into taking them even when the 2 point shot is working. Gotta learn JT it’s year 7 now. For all the size the jays have and them being athletic it’s frustrating sometimes how much threes they take most notably when they aren’t shooting well. I don’t see any defense the nuggets put out there that can slow both jays inside the three, brown just missing shots or going soft with his layups, jt having whatever he wants but nope too many times they’re bailing the defense out for three

The Jays haven’t showed up so far.

Would take Murray over 7 10 days a week.

I know we're supposed to be complaining about how horrible our players are...but the only thing I can focus on is how absolutely horrendous the announcers are. I use league pass and don't have cable so the only time I watch ESPN games is during the playoffs. Doris Burke and this other guy don't add a thing to the game. Truly horrible

Wtf was that shot by JT. Lazy

Why are Horford and Tatum just standing on one side??

RB34 · Post #435 » by **RB34** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 2:36 am

Need someone to step up and make a shot

Triple7 · Post #436 » by **Triple7** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 2:36 am

No rebounder coz horf is camped behind the arc

tfribs45 · Post #437 » by **tfribs45** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 2:37 am

Get PP off of Murray! That’s why he can never be a playoff rotation guy. Defensive liability

Sweet Serenity · Post #438 » by **Sweet Serenity** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 2:37 am

Why was no one cutting when KP had the ball ??

He's having a great year.

The bar was set low. Don’t be selfish and pass to your teammates. Same ole shot jacking bad defense shows up under pressure.

What exactly are we trying to do here?
