Good. Play like a rookie, get benched like one.

If he can't understand why he was benched after a performance like that then he needs to be removed from the team.

Giannis is probably asking out after this season.


I'll trade him for Reeves for sure.

In the Tatum era, my favorite team was 17-18. They played with a ton of heart.

Worst loss of the season? One of the worst losses in Celtics history.

Even inside the 3pt line the Cs are bad.

We definitely need a defensive presence off the bench. PP and Hauser aren't it. They won't score that much in the playoffs, and will get targeted every game.

Tatum and brown have learned nothing . Still not showing up for games. Call it all star game swoon, or getting fat and lazy with a long home game stand or whatever but championship teams don’t lose games like this

Knicks gain a game while missing OG, Grimes, and Randle.

Can't wait for Joe to say...the difference is they hit their threes. I liked our shots.
