Game Thread – Hawks @ Celtics – 7:00PM, Sat, Jan. 18, 2025

Queta lost this one on that rebound. Didn't even try to jump.

[Froob]

Time to panic

[ConstableGeneva]

Queta was out of position, no need for him to be way up the floor with Pritchard guarding Young

playa_hater consistent at least. Blame Kornet or blame Joe. Never his binkies hehe.

Well thanks to joe I don't have any feelings to hurt anymore.. So you can let me and big
Queta have it..

Everyone gets a fair share of the blame pie. Just all around suckage from the whole team.

Except Derrick White and Brad Stevens. They're immaculate.

[Bar Fight]

What a blown game man. We don't play with the poise of champions at all

The guy with two chanpionships handed this one over to Atlanta by being an idiot like 5x lololol

He's literally just Marcus Smart 2.0 lol

[Shak_Celts]

That must be it .

Everyone else must have one too

Didn't see anyone else hit their head on the floor. Others were just plain dumb.

nah all of it was trash, if they let him stay out there there's no concussion excuse.

[phincsfan]

Terrible shooting no defense. I can really see 30 Ls with this team.

52 wins would mean a top 4 seed. I’ll take that

[Jammer]

Celtics need to learn to get someone other than Tatum, and the ensuing double team, taking the shot and have plays designed to find the player with the best opportunity. That's on JOE. BAD PLAY CALLING with no options. Jaylen should have pulled it out with 13 on the clock rather than rushing a pass. But I forgive JB because his head was swelling up.

[Fierce1]

Some want Joe to play Queta, doesn't matter if he makes mistakes.

Queta made mistakes at the wrong time and it results in the Celtics losing.

Now fans are upset why Joe played Queta.

[bucknersrevenge]

Well that was an actual disgrace. Kind of loss you might expect from Utah or something.

[celtxman]

Celtics only need to hold the ball at the end of regulation up 3. Get fouled. Ballgame. Painful

That guy is supposed to be JB.

But what JB does with the ball on JB, not Joe.

The coach will only go as far as where the players take him.

[ThePigeon]

We are missing KP and Horford
I am not concerned in a playoff series. Queta will not see a second of floor time
And maybe we will get actual refs for once

Hauser is hurt, Shut him down and get a wing who can actually play. This is on Brad to solve

[Jammer]

Absolutely pathetic that the Celtics couldn't get the rebound after 2 missed free throws.

True.

I don't know why Jrue gave it up when he's an 89% FT shooter.

He actually had 2 options, score the ball or hold on to the ball.

It's a lose-lose situation for Joe when your choices are between Kornet and Quetta. Sitting both KP and Al for this was a mistake. They should have been staggered so one was available today...but apparently that's too much to ask from this coaching staff.

JB gets a pass tonight for everything he did after his head hit the floor. Including not pulling it out with 13 on the clock and rushing a bad pass. The guys' head was swelling up.

Celtics already lost 2 games to Atlanta because of an offensive rebound.

I agree.

One of Al or KP should have played.

[Infinite Llamas]

Tatum is the last player I want to see shoot with the game on the line.
Would have trusted White so much more with a clutch shot
