Fire these announcers and get someone with a pulse in

They just saw one of the most electrifying defensive performance in sports since the Superbowl and I think they may have been reciting notes from a previous game it was so **** monotone and bland.

Good first quarter. Keep up the effort the C's have a shot.

3 bad calls, 2 bad defense slips, 3 bad shots and we won 1st quarter 3 more quarters to go. Let's go unbuntu 1.2.3. Celtics

Has Theis on midget totally ignores him.

I wouldn't really trust Theis to post up against anyone regardless of the size advantage.

Jaylen Brown instead of throwing the ball to Theis who had a mismatch decided to try and take Embiid one on one.

This is exactly the problem that Celtics keep talking about

Then you just have Embiid helping on everything. At least with Theis he’s further away from the basket.

Williams ain't stopping Embiid bro. You guys act like he's Rudy Gobert or something lol. He was pure trash in the few minutes against the Clippers. He'll just end up putting Embiid at the line nearly every possession.

This time it's getting hard to repress, but I'm not going to overreact yet, just a hot stretch so far

Nah. Just watch the bench unit play and you'll see the difference is in their effort and attitude and not in his absence.

We're competing hard. All I can ask for, for now. In the second half, I'll be expecting a win.

Always always always throw in the negative crap as a chaser. SMMFH.

This.

Theis is much more experienced and is the more mature body, Embiid would destroy Williams.

I don't get the obsession either. He has no idea how to play in NBA yet.

He held his own against Anthony Davis. Have to try him. Theis stands no chance, might as well put Smart on him

I'm not even sure if that's selfishness or his extremely low BBIQ
