Sometimes the effort level just isn’t there. Doesn’t even look like the same team as the suns game.

Going under screens instead of switching on them doesn't help.

Sucks cause then okayish players get confidence early and are feeling it late in games.

This is an aggravating loss. We got like 5 good minutes of basketball and the rest has been bad defense and bricks

Thibs is killing me here. Why give up open threes???

Force them into long twos and rim contests. Giving up open threes is a recipe for disaster in modern ball

If a team has more than 2 guys that can shoot and 1 of them is a big he is lost defending that team.

A blown fastbreak from tying the game

Bridges being benched is deserved, he was dreadful on both sides of the ball.

We didnt know how to deal with the size underneath the basket. And we couldnt hit our 3 pt shots nearly as well as usual. The team is still gelling. If it weren't there would be little doubt we should have beat this team.

Kessler rim protection would help us if Ainge wasn't such a hard guy to trade with
