The crowd should be standing but they are rather tame. Cmon man, they are dominating!

i will maintain it's not a sustainable strategy against the tougher defensive teams. We're still a deadlier team when that ball is moving and not stuck with one or two guys. But kudos to JB for punishing his matchups.


There just needs to be a balance.

Sometimes the other team wants you to mismatch hunt, as it gets you out of your offense. I’d guess many scoring slumps start with hunting mismatches.

Herro is being hunted like Jimmy hunted Kemba back in 2020.

I love how Hauser spaces the offense. They got to keep him in the rotation moving forward. He's too valuable because of his gravity. I think Jrue/Pritchard probably should play a little less.

Tatum has been missing lately, too.
We definitely do need a FT Coach.

I hate it when we get too eager with the mismatch hunting and suddenly become stagnant. But when they make good quick decisions and get those mismatches with movement, I don't mind it.

This is what the Celtics should be doing at home against a severely under manned Heat team. Now sweep the leg

I just realized Tatum hasn’t sat yet.

I think we can give him a breather lol.
