Just **** inexcusable by brown there against towns. Towns has 3 fouls you have him one on one just drive.

Jaylen Brown is just dumb man. Nothing else to it. Wasn't he the MAIN one saying we shouldn't chuck up bad threes when we have a lead? Way to practice what you preach

Tatum is **** lazy. Walking through half court, chucking 3’s again. We will give up this lead fast. Bunch of idiots

I'll never forgive this team for making me feel this way in a 25+ lead

Both Brown and Tatum refuse to drive when KAT comes out to guard them. Their eyes should light up when he comes out there. Should be an automatic green light to drive.

Either lazy or poor basketball IQ.

It's not the 3 pointers that is bad. It is that we are shooting them without any ball movements. Or off a penetration... that's called settling..

If this lead goes down to 13-15 to start the 4th, we are toast again. Tatum does nothing but jack 3’s. No ability to drive at all. SOFT

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say these guys are tired as hell and shooting 3’s is just easier to do right now.

Drive past towns, double comes, kick it out to an open shooter, if they rotate find the next open guy. It’s not hard, they did that earlier which setup a Pritchard wide open three

They literally did this in the 1st half, so it's laziness/complacency

Especially when he could be in foul trouble.. It's truly mind-boggling that they do that and if they overhelp on kAT someone will end up with a great look.

I'm no expert, but I think that is basketball. 101

I'd love to see Jrue touch the ball on EVERY SINGLE possession

Jrue is just in the BBIQ zone right now, let him make the decisions
