Tatum second guessing now

Should’ve just emptied the starters earlier when they don’t care anymore about the game and played guys who would give effort like pp and Hauser

Celtics haven't changed. Starts with Tatum. Just zero energy once lead got up to 30. Miami never stopped playing.

Pretty awful stretch by Tatum to end the game.

Disgusting play
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

He was thinking about that awesome scene in the town where Ben Affleck robs Fenway and totally forgot about the game. Could happen to anyone.

OMG.

The Starters got complacent.
Shouldn't have let them play the last 8 mins.

This is a good reminder that they can't relax.

Lapses like this can't happen in the playoffs.

That layup by Tatum is why he's going to continue to catch **** until he wins a title.

How you gonna be the guy when you can't even make a wife open layup to stop a Miami run.

This is exactly how you don’t want to close against Miami. These guys are just so unserious sometimes.

He already called a timeout two minutes earlier. Up to the players at that point. JB and KP not even bothering to defend. JT unsure what to do on offense.
