Kcp should've got wider and got to the 3pt line.. it was a weird angle for Franz to make that pass at speed


He’s didn’t need to leak out to the 3 you throw a simple lob & he finishes. Franz just made another poor decision.

Giving Franz the max was like Golden State giving Mike Dunleavy Jr. a max back in 2006

People are going to blame the supporting cast, but it's just extremely hard to win an NBA basketball game when two guys have 60% of the shot attempts.

Celtics generate so many wide-open 3s. Man I hope the Thunder can beat them.

What is wrong with Franz? Dude looks completely out of his depth.

WHAT ARE THE MAGIC DOING?! Standing around ball watching. Getting blocked by White and Horford. They look checked out. Or just lost.

You know the refs aren't on our side when Franz and Paolo combine for only 4 FTAs

Agree. It's also hard to beat a historically great basketball team. They are going to make teams way better than us look just as bad.

They can’t co exist unless you have a legit other all star who can run the show.

Booker/Paolo I hope this FO looks at that **** in Phoenix right now but Weltman probably isn’t even watching this game. Lmao he profited, let the real fans suffer.

Still have a home playoff game to clean up lol
