Another terrible finish to a quarter....

And... We only have 3 turnovers.

Sigh.

Good Lord, Wall never shuts his mouth and complaining does he?

Who are the refs going to give that Wall foul to?

Probably Kelly!

Marcus Smart should be benched for that 3 pointer. Completely unacceptable.

I knew the moment Horford switched, Wall was going to either a) get fouled b) score.

Sigh.

The fact that we're only down 7 with as terrible as we've played is pretty amazing. They won't shoot 65% again in the second half, though if anyone's defense would allow that, it's the C's this year.

The Celtics haven't been getting the foul calls they need. Nor is our defense anywhere as good as last year. We really need Avery Bradley.

At half Isaiah leads all of our starters with a +/- of 0.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

Sloppy half but we knew Washington was gonna come after us after the last game. Tighten up and start playing some half-decent D and we can get them.

Can we please just trade for Nurkic.. He won't be expensive and can REBOUND (and play decent defense).

Celtics getting out rebounded (again...), and they are undefeated when they win the rebounding battle (that's a pretty telling stat).

I'd be fine with him taking it but he rushed it , wasn't squared up etc etc.  I'd hope brad points things like that (and missed defensive rotations) over films

The sample size is rather small though
