So what exactly is the point of running a double big lineup when both can't rebound or defend the paint?

They thought they could just show up.


After we went up 20, the focus just fell away.

I hope they learn the importance on getting these games wrapped up early, with the bigger picture in mind.

Queta is a good player man. Playing replacement player who never left Luke 16 minutes in this one is wild

Sometimes we need to win ugly.

This is ugly!

Just need the win.

- As I always advocate, the Celtics could use a young, talented Big.

- And also another SF option with Hauser out, as Mazzulla wants no part of Walsh in anything meaningful.

Can they call the multiple fouls on Cade and Stewart during the review?

Our defense was already problematic against the Wiz but their players suck more. Detroit actually has a bit more talent. And they just didn’t quit.

Gotta earn this one.

Joe needs to call the timeouts as well. He improved there last year and now it’s back to this crap.
