Celtics (37-21) vs Bucks (43-14) Game #59 2/21/19

You got to pass it. No hero ball. Kyrie is a good player and is fun to watch. But I don't think he is good for this team.

I don’t think he could have.  By the time he drew Gianna away from Horford it was too late.  Pass it earlier and Giannis easily block Horford shot.

Great game.  Could have won it.  Just shows that we're going to be able to hang with any team in the East once the playoffs come.  Especially if Hayward shows up.  Missed him tonight.

Last play was awful. Refs never call contact on last shot. Plus Al wide open.

Letting pgs have the last shot from a throw in... less than 5 sec

Is bad coaching. Unless the pg is tall/long

Tatum should have been given the ball

I saw a fan wearing an ugly Lakers jersey in the stands cheering for the Bucks.

Disgusting

You're not going to the FT line if you keep shooting 3s.

That's just how the Celtics play.

If the Celts want to get to the FT line more, get a player who can score inside on a regular basis.

A player to throw the ball to in the post to get those tough points? A player currently in New Orleans perhaps?

When the Bucks really needed to score they dumped it down to Giannis and kept the C’s at bay just enough.

And that's one of biggest issues plaguing the Celtics. They have no inside game.

Easy to say pass it in hindsight. Maybe Kyrie could have passed it to Al after he drew Giannis with 1 sec on the clock. It was a Hail Mary pla with 3 sec to go. Could have gone either way. Rather than Kyrie playing hero ball we lost it because we shot 38% from the floor.

Anthony Davis says "hello!"

We shot 6 WHOLE free throws the entire game.

I'm sure that has nothing at all to do with the loss.

The Bucks shot as many threes as the Celtics did and we had people going to the rim this game they just didn’t get the calls.

Yeah, too bad we just have some PG.

Was wondering why Al was so wide open and Smart didn't pass him the ball. Guess it was based on the play that Brad drew up.

Tough loss but Celts played hard. Not a whole lot to be unhappy about I guess.

Giannis goes to the basket almost every single play that will get you ft.
Our team is one jump shot after another - not how you get ft.

Simple.

They need something to cheer for, being on the outside of the Playoffs looking in, as it stands.
