Tatum and KP pooping the bed. Come on now. Just disgusting, all these turnovers. It's like they're playing with each other for the first time. Knicks defense isn't all that. Stop shooting yourselves in the foot and the mouth.

Porzingis is -11 in 9 minutes. Knicks just take advantage when he is on the floor

They hack Robinson.

And then the Knicks inbound and hit a 3.

What the heck was the point of getting to the foul limit if you’re going to just abandon the strategy immediately?

Throwing away too many opportunities and now the lead is basically gone.

Turnover on 2 on 1 fastbreak, miss wide open 3, miss easy tip in and a 20pt game is down to 12. Absolute garbage end of quarter execution again. These are so avoidable mistakes

When we get big leads we stop playing defense, come on!

Mazzulla always calls timeouts too late. Celtics were sloppy for awhile.

3 straight 3s

Celtics get a lead and decide "who cares about ball security?" and "Let's take some plays off on defense".

Need a killer instinct.
