We fought but we needed to play an almost perfect game. We still can't seem to get over the hump with these close games. Nothing to do with role players in these moments.

The Jays and Kemba only scored one time in the last 3 minutes.

I like the no TT experience.

We aren’t a good passing team. That’s why we need a Lonzo or Rondo on this team

Other option is a stretch big to open the paint for our slashers.

Clarkson scores 18 a game in 25 minutes. If any bench player took his shots on the Celtics they'd score 10 because they have no talent.

Trash bench equals trash results. That simple.

Why are they fouling and prolonging a game that has been over for a while.

Bruh... Jazz aren't the measuring stick. They will fold against Lakers/Clippers.

The refs aren't even blowing the whistle on fouls to waste time lol.

He missed a lot of shots. Not back to form yet.
2-10, 1-6 from 3.

Donovan Mitchell the last 5 minutes of close games has a 38% TS, 30% in the last 3 minutes

Tatum in the last 5 minutes of close games has a 62% TS, and 65% in the last 3 minutes.

People really expect Tatum to score every clutch basket like he’s prime Jordan at his age. There’s a lot of stars out there who are way less efficient than JT in the closing minutes. Everyone else on the Celtics is a different story

I personally think the Celtics need both. Celtics won’t reach their peak until Kemba is gone
