Such horrible shot selection.

Did Russ dislocate a finger or something?

I might have missed something but I thought he sat because he has 3 fouls.

There was at least one Celtic foul in all of that.

They showed him walking to the locker room with someone.

I don't know whether I just hallucinated or did Grant really do a spin move and then lose the ball out of bounds on a fast break?

Someone on the GB said he came back out so maybe a finger. Dunno what I missed, just got in but saw Ferg did a thing

really odd change of style offensively between the sac game and this one. a lot more isolating. russ has been adventurous with his passing. PG iso's have been bad. dunno why both kept trying to go after marcus smart, seemed like we were having success running pnr with adams, grant, whoever.

celtics look horrible. both grant and diallo had some nice defensive possessions on tatum.

Solution to shooting woes? Play teams that shoot worse!

Good ol’ Westbrook not rotating on that Kyrie 3. He looks tired. He was hunched over after that play.

Great defensive strategy to give up both the drive to the rim and open 3s.

i'm sure billy donovan has has to have a firm chat with westbrook and he'll stop giving kyrie six feet on the pnr's.
