We got better at putting rim pressure in 2nd qtr but 3-ball/5-out is still the default. Frustrating. I really feel when 3s aren't falling we need to play with more pace, make or miss.

White is missing shots because of the all star talk.

How dare he

I know they're kids but I'm not the type to give out trophies for every single thing, this halftime is terrible! I don't care I don't care, one of them must be related to a Celtics!

Cavs in a battle with the Clips. Mitchell been great at moving the defense and finding guys.

You can say that any game. The offense sucked. 44% shooting but only 24% from 3. Over half the shots from 3...how about taking fewer 3's attacking the rim and drawing fouls? Nah that would require running an offense.

Ingram is an elite scorer, fun to watch.

Just lulling other teams into a false sense of security.

He's scoring volume and efficiency are eerily similar to Jaylen Brown's. Aka not elite.

pritch isn't great but he's a solid 8th man. i wish he were Caruso, who could be our 6-7th man, but I have been satisfied with him.

Had a busy today so about to watch the second half but wtf is up with Derrick white???

Kawhi vs. Mitchell is fun.

jb needs to get a new shooting coach, lethal shooter aint it. keeps getting worse.

BK_2020 · Post #177 » by **BK_2020** » Tue Jan 30, 2024 1:43 am

Svi's not even warming up. I think he knows how the script goes for the 2nd half. We coming back and winning it in a close one.

zoyathedestroya · Post #178 » by **zoyathedestroya** » Tue Jan 30, 2024 1:46 am

Game is winnable.

Hey, Jrue passed up a three to drive on Zion. Got to the FT line. Interesting concept.

And we turn down a wide open corner three for a really bad contested layup
