This was predicable some time in the game regardless. ISO Morris carried the first quarter with bad shots left and right. Nothing has really changed except now they aren't playing defense.

Per 24 minutes to Celtics maybe the best team in the league.

Celtics morph into UMass Amherst (current team) in 3rd quarters. Absolutely horrid

I don't understand why Hayward has to start on the bench if he's playing well.

I mean, this happens every game. Boston comes out of half completely flat and looking like they could care less.

How could this team be so bad this year? I dont get it. Did Ainge screw it up with his fascination with AD? Didn't they see this problem coming with all these young players wanting shots and money??

Yep... I'm tired of seeing someone (Tatum, Morris, etc.) manoeuvering at the top of the key and four static players around the three-point line. Makes for predictable basketball (i.e., easier to defend, and more boring to watch).

They have to win on defense and make Philly go ISO. Morris in 100% black hole mode
