Cs cut the lead to 5 with the starters back.

It was the bench.

Boston rarely wins first game back after a road trip. Not sure why anyone is surprised how this game is going thus far.

Luke scores again because nobody actually guards him.And then he real quickly just gives up 2 more points on The other and because he just stands there. :banghead:
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

He’s forcing it because there are two big dumpsters clogging the paint.

Short memory?

Didn't we have a lead early and until the middle of the 1st qtr?

The double big was working until the bench came in and hot start of the Cs was negated by poor bench play.


Sometimes I wonder if you even watch the games. The double big is fine, the double non shooting bigs is the issue. He put two non shooters in there and DEMOLISHED spacing. He did it again now with Kornet and Queta and had to bring KP back in with 3 fouls. Never seen a coach play against his superstars so much.

JB is so much better when he doesn't have to dribble a lot.

When's the last time JT went scoreless in a half?
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Tatum team best +11 despite zero pts, and the rare JT assists>3PTA , which is a good (but not perfect) win indicator
