He got Kyrie and Doncic to both commit a Foul.

This is looking like a major L. We can't hit anything today.

Not disciplined on offense. Throwing some garbage shots out there. O feels rushed. And odd that we're leaving corner threes. We don't usually do that.

Just gotta hold out until the Grant Williams minutes. Dallas is 14 points per 100 worse when Grant plays.

Jaylen Brown bro stop shooting threes.

Game went to **** once Tatum went to the bench. Starting to hate the 5 minute into the game sub, feels like it’s **** up his game.

Need the bench to play well since DWhite is cold.

Doncic already flirting with a Double-Double.

Rumor has it the Celtics just spam 3's and are trash when they aren't hitting. At least Joe and Scal like the shots.

Hopefully Doncic is available in the off-season, the Celts can offer a nice package for him starting with Brown.
And Brown gets along with Kyrie.

I really hate how stubborn this team is when it comes to shooting the 3. Even when they are not hitting anything, it's still their primary option.
