we've scored eight points this quarter

I can't remember enjoying watching a Celtics team less than this one so far

These are games brad deserves heavy criticism. The Celtics took the lead 4 minutes left in the 3rd for the first time, everyone is playing in a good rhythm especially Tatum, Brown, and Kyrie and then brad brings in the bench asap. The lead goes away instantly and the Celtics end up being down 5 to start the 4th. He then continues to play Rozier more minutes until it hits double digits and then the starters lose that rhythm because of that depressing stretch by the bench.

This is likely our 4th straight loss if you only count real NBA teams

The sad part about tonight was, I wasn't really expecting a win. Raise your hand if you were expecting an L today.

It’s the same damn play.

Our defense can’t stop a high pick and roll it’s a joke.

Agree here. Hate this team, it’s pace. This makes no sense.

Get Rozier off the team. Smart doesn’t guard anyone well anymore.

It’s awful.

Just trade whoever at this point. I have no attachment to anyone who allows this regression to happen. Still confident they can turn it around talent-wise, but mentally this team is just in a dark space. If things aren’t better by December 15th, you have to consider making some changes

Anyone claiming that Horford's contract doesn't suck needs to quit drinking green Kool aid.

Hanging on the rim is in same category as delay of game. Doesn't lead to ejection.

Non-unsportsmanlike conduct technical fouls are defined per NBA Rule 12, Section V, Paragraph c, and none count towards a fine, ejection or suspension. These fouls are assessed for excessive time-outs, defensive three seconds, scratched player dressing and playing, excessive personal fouls because team is out of players, shattering backboards, or delay of game. An offensive player who intentionally hangs on the backboard, unless it is legal for safety reasons, is fined $500 but is only assessed a non-unsportsmanlike conduct technical foul.

Very interesting. Never heard of this.
How long have they had this Rule?


It's not new. I didn't realize it applied to hanging on the rim though.

Still love green, but somethings wrong. I'm seeing lack of effort a lot of the time.

Inconsistent crappy team. Lakers might end up with a better record than this team. Who would have thunk it?!

Why are they resorting to Kyrie isos with 5 minutes left in the game.
