Celtics just front run when everything is going well. Once they get punched they play like crap on both ends

That was never in doubt. The issue is that Tatum is not even in the top 5 players on the floor


He had 9 days off to prepare for this. He's been terrible.

If anyone wants to review the first half we moved the **** out of the ball now we are standing around and this is what we've done most of the year.

This is far worse than just making or missing shots blow a moment and play a moment has stopped

29 .. 8 point lead is a joke
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Dallas tightened up their defense and are hitting shot they missed.

Is what it is. Adjust and play on.

Crowd is pathetic right now aswell, where is the chanting. Haven't heard a single 'defense' chant all 3rd.

Guards: Holiday, White, Pritchard

Bigs: Porzingis, Horford, Kornet
