Killed all momentum. So dumb.

I can't believe TNT inserts ads right on top of the court btw. Soon it'll be all ads with a little box in a corner for us to watch the game.

Jrue Holiday offense is so pooopppp. Good when it comes to shooting strictly open shots but one on one, forget about it.

Momentum died when Tatum bricked that three. Just mix it up, attack the hoop sometimes when you hit a three. Way too reliant on three ball

All of this because Tatum broke momentum with his dribble dribble 3pt chuckfest. Dude just not mature enough. Still want to get his points. Weak af mentally.

I ain't worried about this game. Celtics are going to win.

It's just a reoccurring theme of this happening at all is the problem. Games like this is what cost you in the playoffs.

Tatum thinks he's Kobe...not when all you think is shooting 3's when you don't have to. Kobe would drive in and power dunk that ****.

Maybe Brown should raise the age limit to 30. Maybe then they'll be mature enough.

I heard that's how it works.

Hoping it wakes the team and coaches up that they still ain’t good enough.

But I doubt it

That last Tatum three was BS. You don't need a heat check when you are down. Anyway I am not blaming Tatum tonight. Lakers getting into the paint with so much ease is what is allowing them to get wide open threes all night. They set a pick for Russell and Reaves and boom they are in the paint with several wide open players at the three point line to past to. Every time.

It's the mentality with this group. I'm sure it'll be on display again in the playoffs.

Return to Boston Celtics
