Maintain the lead so we can get some Bus 1 Boys action.

I’d say stop settling for three but they keep going in?! Move the ball it isn’t always going to fall

Maybe sit Tatum and Jaylen and let Hauser and Kornet protect the lead.

I guess I underestimated how hard it is to stay engaged when they know they clearly have this game in hand and are way more talented

You have to wonder if Brown's cut or whatever he did to his hand is exacerbating his usual sloppiness?

Meanwhile, White has been the best player on the court.

Stop with the **** turnovers JB. One thing that can always bite the Celtics is their damn turnovers. Stop giving the hawks any life.

Celtics would have at least 5 All-NBA players if they got to play against Atlanta’s defense every game

#7 now is alternating between his 2 skills - elite scorer & dumb as ****, selfish TOV machine.
