NBA PLAYOFFS: Rnd 1, Gm 1 – Magic @ Celtics – 3:30PM, Sun, April 20, 2025

Banchero and Wagner doing whateva they want. Have outplayed the Js in the first half.

This is unwatchable. What an embarassing performance in the first half.

Stop playing Kornet, go small and play Pritchard more.

I'm stuck on a bus box score watching. Why is Kornet catching so much flak? Terrible defense?

[tfribs45]

JB def not his normal self. The rest of the unit needs to wake the heck up. Every loose ball went to the magic. PP was fired up and rolling then he sits?! Wth

[JimmyFromNz]

One of the privileges our two stars have is they can play this poorly and have others consistently pick up the slack - many others don't have that.

Magic playing with the physicality and energy we should expect. Frustrating but we should right the ship in the 2nd half and be better for it.

Damn. If Tatum plays like this in the playoffs, we gonna lose to the knicks for sure. Coz brunson will definitely show up. Just last years playoff vibes off him. If he doesn’t show up this next half, i won’t trust him again. All mental with him.

If he doesn't cook in the 2nd half he's toast

Not really an option when they're already eating us alive on the boards.

[Triple7]

Wagner outscored our best duo lol. Not even mentioning banchero jeez. Embarrassing!

[Parliament10]

Tatum is too often a slow Starter.
Hopefully he amps it up, in the 2nd Half.

We're making Orlando look good.

[JR Hawks]

Playoff Tatum

It’s not just to tatum. Other guys need to show up as well. This is embarrassing energy for a playoff game.

[Marvel]

At least JB has an excuse with his knee. What's Tatum's excuse?

[Bird84]

Gonna need White and Pritchard to come through. Our 3 "stars" look lost out there.

[playa-hater]

It seems like so many posters are blane, whatever player.

And yet almost no one mentions our stagnant ball movement AND isocentric basketball, which is all related to our coach.

Softzingis.

Y’all watching the wrong game .. it’s Kornet the bum that’s **** everything . When he is in game. Celtics playing with 4 players
.. not 5

[Ben-N1ce]

Mazzula getting circles run around him. Orlando makes the Celtics a low volume 3 team every game and he has no adjustment.

Mazulla trying to be cute and stubborn on rotations. Play the hot hand damn it.

Put Pritchard back in there. He scored 11 pts, in 7 mins.

On a side note:
It looks like Mazzulla is going with 9?
