Damn luke that was your guy lol

[bfchs123]

White's role / defensive impact just fits so much better when Jrue is out there. Him being asked to fill Jrue's shoes just doesn't optimize what he can bring

[PierceFan4ever]

Tatum’s effort level the last 2 first quarters is a 0 and his donut scoring reflects that. That’s not how you start games

[ConstableGeneva]

Horford needs to stop shooting threes. He has to be 1-15 over the past two games

This is the game plan for opponents against the Celtics. Double the jays and dare Horford to hit open threes.

Horford has hit 40+ percent the last 2.5 years from three point range. Bad strategy

Near 40 his entire Celtics career. He will have a bad stretch here and there (every player does), but his shot is reliable.

Please make a trade, doesn't have to be ground shaking, but the team is in a rut and Walsh isn't ready, Horford in decline, some shake up is requisite, Baylor does he actually still exist in this reality, and Hauser is overpayed now.

Sam caught the injury bug this season

[Shak_Celts]

Pritchard can hit anything

[Shak_Celts]

I asked for Celtics defense, they let up 12 points in the quarter. I can’t complain

[playa-hater]

It's basically d white > Toronto..

Meanwhile I know people.
Are gonna use this game as proof we have a good defense.. Toronto is offensively athetic..

[ConstableGeneva]

It's only the Raptors but that's what we should be doing to the Raptors. More. While they can't make shots.

[NYCelticsfan136]

16 3 point attempts lmao already. Seriously this team has a horrible habit. Yikes. Shooting awful again. Lucky toronto is shooting it worse.

Wish I could give the Cs more credit than the putrid Raptors shooting. Some of those threes are wide open lol. And I don't know what Pritchard is doing.

Wouldn’t have a chip without him. He’s so quietly impactful that people think the there is all he’s done. KP was being cooked alive by Luka in the finals, who wasn’t? Al. Who was there the entire playoffs starting and handling business? Old man Al. The team knows, even if others don’t. There is more to the game than on court, Al has everything you’re looking for!

Ref shut up
