Need to step it up on D and quit giving the Pacers free possessions (looking at you Jrue).

Bad defensive quarter, especially since they didn't score in it for several minites.

Hauser has been terrible on defense. You can’t stand around doing nothing vs these guys, keep chasing

Kornet not playing well was a killer. Big Al can’t play 48 minutes and Indy size giving the Celtics problems

I don't remember Carlisle on that '86 Celtics Team.

It's concerning to me that a team built by Brad doesn't appear to understand that you still need to play defense to win in the NBA.

There's 0 chance the Celtics are winning a championship scoring 145 a game.

It's not Hauser rn. Hauser's just rotating like mad to cover for Pritchard's complete absence like the other 3 Celtics actually playing defense.

Hauser has been awful both defensively and offensively. I am not sure why Mazzulla keeps playing him.
