Pritchard and Hauser are bbq chicken on defense.

I must be looking at a different angle lol. Looked like he got no ball.

It was never going to be easy. Top offense and top team in the NBA. As soon as we missed shots, we needed to defend better.

Perfect execution

Nice end to the half. Defend better in the 2nd half and we'll be fine.

Just force feed Tatum. I want that 80 piece.

ConstableGeneva · Post #173 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Sat Mar 1, 2025 1:43 am

Not too shabby by Tatum in the half.

We scored 72 points in a half and it's only a 10 points game, can the Celtics defense please show up?

To be fair we’re also down Jrue and Porzingis so it’s much harder to stagger the lineups

Not sure he's even better. Senior citizen Jrue and Mr. Glass missing exposes our depth. Hauser and Pritchard are good players but limited particularly on defense against elite offenses.

Very entertaining half. We didn't expect this to be a cakewalk.

This will come down to whether we bother to defend with energy and intensity like we did in the first 6 minutes of the game.

The Cavs are an elite offence.

They are making some really tough baskets.

38 points for the cavs in the second quarter is too rich. They better step up defensively.
