Celts Sippin' Coffee, Birds Steal Their Cup! NBA Cup Loss vs ATL 11/12

Post #1 » by **bisme37** » Wed Nov 13, 2024 2:27 am

Blah you guys that was super sucky!

Celts weren't aggressive and shot poorly as a team. Had a bunch of dumb turnovers and defensive lapses as well. And didn't rebound the ball at all tonight.

Celts take a loss in the RS standings and start the NBA Cup with a loss, so we'll have to win the rest of our group play games for any chance to advance in the tournament. I'm displeased!

Try to shake it off and have a good night you guys!

Nets tomorrow, Go C's!

The arrogance the team’s playing with this year is driving me nuts.

I hope this team keeps getting embarrassed until they quit believing their own hype and man up and start playing defense again. What a pathetic performance.

Dont really care much about losses unless they are this bad. Just Pathetic showing. 25 more shot attempts and 20 turnovers. If White didn't hit so many ridiculous shots they lose by double digits.

Worst game of the season by far. The C's felt like a bunch of talented guys playing together for the first time. No ball movement, lazy turnovers (lots of them), no defense, no pride.

Props to Atlanta, they deserved this game from the jump.

If this isn't an ass of shame game, then nothing ever should be.

Tragic loss lol. Got completely bullied by a lottery team missing multiple players. I swear JT gets the least amount of easy baskets of any star player in the league. It's hard to be efficient when over half your shot diet is contested threes/jumpers. Try mixing in some paint touches, drives or **** anything else.

C’s a little lucky the other three expected contenders in the east are dramatically underperforming or they’d start to get into a slug fest over standing early.

Don’t think we’ve played great basketball this year. Tatum really hasn’t been good save for some hot shooting earlier. Feels like they’re just missing something right now.

Do Not Burn The Tape.

Play it Again, and Again, and Again.
Make them Sick of it.

Our defense, actually the lack thereof, is what’s killing us this year. I know it’s too early in the season, but if this mindset doesn’t change, we are gonna get embarrassed a lot just like tonight.

20 Turnovers. 7 Steals by Celtics, 16 Steals by Atlanta. 11 Less REBOUNDS. Lucky to lose by 1.

This game was winnable, but lacked a closer who could easily get baskets in the last 2 min.

White was the only guy hitting at the end. Need more movement to get guys open looks. Tatum and Brown tend to have blinders late in games, they need to whip pass when lanes close. They both need to be better, and quicker, decision makers.

Totally Agree.

Got complacent.
15 pt Lead, and lost by 1.

What a poo sandwich

Hopefully this is the type of wake up call for thr players and Joe, we have been coasting for a.while.

Atlanta are a likable team without Trae so it doesn't annoy me so much on that end
.
Very disappointed in Tatum tonight

Jammer · Post #17 » by **Jammer** » Wed Nov 13, 2024 2:37 am

Pritchard, Hauser, Kornet, Queta & Walsh were no shows tonight.

In case you don't know, that is my theme On Tatum all season..

What weird timing for this post. Kornet got 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, all in just 4 minutes. Aside from White he was maybe the most efficient Celtic tonight.

G
Dude is so one dimensional. I wrote that he’s taking more 3 point attempts this year than last year.
