Can’t find Tatum MVP level and consistency in same sentence unless the word NOT is in there too

12 pt lead, totally erased.

Tillman, Scheierman, Springer & Walsh are the only ones left on the Bench.

Last couple years, Derrick was getting his shoulder past guys, driving, pulling up and getting into his floater game as well as safety valve as a 3PT threat. This year D White seems like standing two feet behind the line and shooting contested 3’s with like 10 seconds on the shot clock, and it’s like, “dang dude, you’re chucking like 20% conversion rate attempts here,”… what happened to Derricks versatility??

What a **** of a second quarter.

insert someone who didn't play yesterday, I don't mean garbage minutes.

Celtics shooting awful in this game.

35.6% from the field and only 23.8% from 3pt land.

Since tatum was listed at questionable I am guessing something is still wrong because he is playing like total ass at the moment..

Superb idea. Back-to-Back.

Yeah I kinda agree. He still has that floater. Not sure why he has gone away from it lately.

Disaster 2nd quarter. PP and Sam not being able to make shots had a lot to do with it. Bench minutes not usually this bad.

Gonna miss 2nd half. Family duties. Ugggghh.

Does White have the yips? What an incredibly long stretch of just dog **** shooting

bucknersrevenge · Post #75 » by **bucknersrevenge** » Sun Jan 19, 2025 1:06 am

Helping off the short corner on defense-- it's been a problem for us the last month. Overhelping when it's not even necessary.

So basically nothing

Celtics look tired tonight. Might not be a good 2nd half

PP and Sam and Derrick and Jaylen and Tatum and Jrue..

I’ve never seen a team forget how to shoot the basketball the way these guys have lately. It’s incredible..

Reminds me of the last few games of the finals in 2022 when he shrunk and was getting in his own head with the missed shots. Need him to be last year’s/november 2024 white if we want to repeat

A 31-15 quarter. Awful.
