I said Derrick white has to step up in the playoffs if we want to win it all, we won in spite of him playing like crap against the Nets and the run to close the regular season. He’s barely had any noticeable performances with us so far. The impact he provides is very minimal for what we gave up

Not a great quarter but they have not played in a bit. Need to let Giannis shoot and not pass to open 3 pt shooters. Celtics need to move ball on offense and attack.

Can't win unless Tatum scores. Budenholzer does this every time he plays us, so it's not a surprise. Ime clearly not ready for this as our offense looks lost. Taking quick shots because of broken plays.

Horford has such a calming presence, it’s noticeable when he’s out

If he can’t shoot the 3 effectively Sam hauser might be a better option here. We need floor spacers right now, not playmakers. It’s matchups


Or Josh Ri....... no, no, DD, too soon.

Huh? I think team is deep. We got weird consonants abut the team .

White was terrible. That is not a depth or talent issue. That is a performance issue. Issue isn’t white’s talent. Issue is he sucked .

Down 3, they shot 50% from the field and 55% from three while we shot 33% and 36%. Not worried.

I'm sorry but we have big goals in mind. We can't sit here babysitting white. If you suck, you sit. It should be that simple at this point.

Considering how sloppy Bucks have been we really should be ahead. We can’t go to **** when Rob is sitting.

Falling asleep guarding the bucks three point shooters while ball watching Giannis was very stupid by the Celtics which led them back in the game. If Giannis is 20 feet away from the hoop don’t bail him out like brown did leaving connaughton open

See lots to improve on. Which I’m ok with. We just need to make our shots. And eventually score more than the bucks to win
