This game thread had little activity when the Cs were leading big.

But when the Hawks cut it to 3, suddenly this game thread was alive!

It would be cool if we could push it back up to 30 a second time.

It's very deliberate. He keeps trying to teach them to correct themselves as in a situation where timeouts have been used in the playoffs it would be useful, but they are very slow to learn this lesson. I seriously doubt he'll wait this long this year in the playoffs after saying he realised he should have taken them earlier last playoffs.

If you want the Cs to be always ready to play, hire Stephanie Ready. :lol:

I'm stuck watching the feed from the Atlanta broadcasters.. But you better believe they were going crazy laughing at Joe from not calling a time out in a 37 to 10 run..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

They should have sat, when we were up 30.
They don't know how to beat a dead horse.

Bench should be in there.
They're more hungry.

Yep. I would've liked the bench to clean up after the starters, to teach them a lesson.

It's ironic, because during the 2Q the Hawks announcers said the Celtics took every game seriously, even when playing a much weaker opponent.

It may well be deliberate, but it is undoubtedly stupid.

I worry about KP in the playoffs. Might not understand the stakes.

:lol:


When leading by 30 we want to see Kornet dunk, PP, Hauser and Svi firing 3s, Brisset dunking etc
Not to see out starting 5 getting bored and getting a 30 points lead down to 3

Hauser should take wide open threes 100% of the time.


When he’s hitting them yes, but bricking most of them? They should just stop. Wasted possession

That was a Bonehead move.
Should have taken the Starters Out, when we were up 30.

Good to see JB play with some force. Frankly, I'm pretty sick of the kp 3s tonight.

The whole team is playing dumb.

Brown seems to think he'll save us all playing 1-on-5.
