You know what’s sad?

In Brooklyn, fans were chanting “Kyrie’s better.”

In Boston, they can’t even combat it. Kyrie hasn’t been great but Kemba is somehow playing even worse than Kyrie AT HOME.

The Bucks must be watching this and licking their lips cuz they will switch Gianis onto Kyrie all game.

Tlc can be streaky for 3... plus he actually can play quicker D than Shamet. Fumbles n all...

The whole lineup rotation by Nash m Co is absolutely horrible.

You’re reaching.

We didn’t want TLC nor DJ to play for a reason in the regular season. Expecting them to make a positive difference in a pivotal game is wishful thinking.

I'm not one to sit n wait.. shamet had 3 games to show. Why not try another person who did at times outplay Shamet?

He either outplays him or does nothing like Shamet

Steve Nash is a **** ing moron. We cannot expect Kyrie to be able to defend Tatum 1 on 1. We should not be switching Durant off of him.

Force Boston to get into their sets, letting then iso Tatum on Kyrie is exactly what they want.

That was about as good as Kyrie has defended Tatum this game, but Nash can't seriously expect him to keep playing him like that. Either play man to man (the ball is going to be in Tatum's hands no matter what) or double. It shouldn't be this hard for him to make an adjustment.

Why would anyone want TLC's dumb ass playing tonight?

This is the playoffs. 8-9 man rotations. Stop it

His dumbasd is still a shooter.

I aint even asking tonight but after today, shamet continues his weak ass play. He does nothing. What could TLC or someone else do any worse? Either provide nothing like Shamet or offer something positive offensively or defensively

Yep. Coach Bud is watching this and probably looking at Steve Nash like he's BBQ chicken.

There's no **** way Kyrie pushed him that hard. These refs would buy **** from Smart if he told them he was selling them diamonds.

Think about it…

I understand that you’re upset that we’re losing. But you’re taking this leap of faith that somehow these players (who are on the bench for a good reason) will somehow uncharacteristically play better than not only their role playing teammates, but also themselves and how we know they can play.

We can get on Nash for a number of things. I don’t think not playing TLC or DJ should be one of them.

Game over. Props to the Celtics.

Nash got out coached tonight. Durant and Harden nearly combined for 80 points and we still lost. O have zero faith in him right now.

Apparently Kemba isn't part of the flopper's club.

You guys have poor perimeter and interior defense. And Nash must be smoking crack cause this switch everything defense is stupid.
