Apparently the only person less ready for Nader to play tonight than me, was Nader himself

Brad needs to chill with the extended minutes of Brown and Kyrie. Let them play a lot early so the game can be over by the third. Brad is part of the problem why we haven't been blowing teams out lately to give everyone a shot like scrub players such as Nader and Larkin.

Not sure why the starters aren't back in here. 3 minutes to go and lead slipping away.

We choked away a blowout, and now they're hitting shots. Too much bench unit, put Nader back on the bench where he belongs.

We could and should be up 15.


He has done that all season with Kyrie and Smart.

There was one game where Smart played 5 minutes more than Kyrie. Smart is treated like a star on this team.

We’ve gotta stop benching Horford and Kyrie for nearly entire quarters.

Sure . . . Leave Harrison Barnes Wide Open. 5-9.

Hard to win with offense when the guy shooting 5% thinks he's Kyrie Irving, no?

There’s a reason the Celtics have the number 1 ranked D and the 21st ranked offense. Smart is a double edged sword but makes plays when the game is on the line.

Can’t complan about our offense being ranked so low and not acknowledge that Smart is a big reason why

This one is 100% on Brad in the 2nd quarter. Jaylen and Kyrie start the game super hot and then sit for 9 straight minutes while the lead evaporates?

Morris and Nader on the floor at the same time? Me First and the Gimme Gimmes.
