Brutal officiating. Rockets were the victim of it the first half, Celtics were the victim - and then some - the 2nd half. The offensive call on Morris which resulted in him getting tossed was total BS.
As far as the team, Brown showed some signs of life. He was engaged and made decent decisions and ended up scoring 18. Theiss killed them offensively and was at -27 for the game. Baynes loss is huge - at least until Al can get back to normal minutes. If I'm an opposing team I will let Smart, Rozier and Theiss shoot as much as they want - the more shots those guys take, the better. Tatum played 29 minutes and scored 4 points. Poor.
The numbers between the teams were fairly even except for the rebounding. 16 OR for Houston and how many of those turned into made 3's?
Danny needs to make a move to improve the offensive production of the bench. They need to find a guy who can make 3s and not hurt them defensively.
I'm starting to think Hayward doesn't make it back to starter level at all this season. He barely deserves to be one of the first 9 the way he's going.
