EDIT: Or not.

I said it before in the other thread.And I will say it again.Tatum's shot selection will lead to poor efficiency.And once again, he will throw away.Any reasonable chance to be an m.V.P.

How does somebody want to be Kobe Bryant and an all time?Great keep doing that..

When we move the ball we score with ease when iso stuff happens we struggle. It’s almost like the Celtics play bored out there

We should stop tapping rebounds directly to the wrong team imo

I remember posters saying they would trade Pritchard for a second round.Pick because that is the best we can get for him..

Cs trying to outPacers the Pacers. This group has better flow. Tatum slowed down the game too much.

They have missed like 5 layups and not grabbed 5 rebounds playing patty cake. Annoying.

I always feel like the Pacers play at a pace that's a little too fast for us.

They always get great shots and we speed up in return playing to their pace thinking we'll get great shots in return but honestly we'd get the same shots playing uncomfortably fast or our normal pace against them. But by playing at their pace we leave ourselves exposed to being run on for just missed shots.

Not sure if we can control the game and slow it down in this modern age but it'd be nice to not let them run as much and not speed us up.

- Hauser is very rusty, but the PP is finally flowing and the game is closer than it should be.

- Glad they benched Tatum - worried he was concussed.

Getting down court and spraying to the perimeter for open threes. What a concept.

Much better, starting to settle in a bit. Still getting crushed on the glass but the offense is starting to click

Holiday and Tatum need to not suck when they come back in.
