KP had 4 points in the second half. Way to go to him when he was so hot in the first half.

Mazzulla made no adjustments all night defensively. Threw a zone at them for a little while then went right back to the same thing

Joe will be the reason the Celtics will not win anything with this core.

Joe useless period.

This team loves to fold in crunch time.

JB bricking the FT's followed by a bricked 3 was the lowlight of the 4th!

Not a Joe fan at all but the Jays really ain't it man. These dudes fold in all the big moments.

2 point loss, with Brown playing like trash and Tatum choking at the end. Seriously, that was a terrible game from Brown.

Very disappointing, but we can be significantly better than that.

Jokic and Murray aren't gonna shoot 70% every game. Easy fellas. They just made more shots

In both timeouts, it was brown and that same spot going on one with everyone outside.

The second one was Tatum on that same spot. Going 101 with everyone outside..

Brilliant

They were looking for the mismatch and they got it with JT being guarded by Murray 1 on 1.

JT just missed.

I feel like this team has mentally regressed from last year. I think they expect to lose these close games to good teams. They do not have confidence in the clutch, nor should they as they have demonstrated for several years that they don't know how to win tight games.

They feel like the old Indy Colts with Manning. Prolific regular season team that choked in every big moment.

This game goes on the Jays no question. It wasn’t like they were playing great defense against them they just wet the bed. They had a lot of clean looks

Not likely considering we've been watching Brown and Tatum play like this for years.


They played better under Ime

We lost because we can’t keep a lead with all those non stop bricks keeping the other team close. JT is nowhere near Jokic. If JT constantly attacked the rim all game, we would have won easily.

Probably not beating that 50-1 home record.

Not a Joe fan at all but the Jays really ain't it man. These dudes fold in all the big moments.

Lebron folded until he reached his 9th season.

KD kept folding like comforters until his 10th season with Steph.

There's still time.

JB only 26.

JT only 25.

What game do people watch? I'm not a Joe fan but he went zone. He went Horford on Jokic, he went KP on Jokic. He went Jrue on him

Get real. I am so sick of hearing about the coaching. These players are not clutch and a bunch of chuckers.

Mazulla is not a coach. He's just a guy who the players won't complain about.

Nah it was an awesome battle. Way better than these ridiculous 140 to 135 games. Both teams played good defense....but both teams have elite stars. Have to give Denver a ton of credit. They clamped up on us a few times
