Pelicans (14-25) at Celtics (25-11) Game #37 1/11/20

[nickagneta]

Defense really fell apart and got lazy those last 7-8 minutes. They had a big lead, a 22-23 point lead, and knew they could get whatever they wanted offensively, so stopped giving that intensity on the defensive side.

This could easily have been a 25+ point lead instead of 15 if they just kept up that defensive intensity and focus. Just too much cheating into the paint and passing lanes and so real late on closeouts meaning a lot of barely or not contested threes that went down for the Pels.

After a brilliant first quarter, terrible 2nd quarter. Lazy D is infuriating.

Wow you are hard to please. Whine, whine, whine, you barely stop.

Please refrain any comments to me to when you're actually watching the game.

Not sure you're actually in charge here.

Super impressed with the passing tonight.

This is good basketball right now.  Tatum is scorching.

[CelticSooner]

Looks like NOLA have packed it in.

[Surferdad]

Good to see them come out solid in the 2nd half. Tatum having a special night vs Ingram.

[satch]

Enes must of heard the Drummond rumors.

[Atzar]

Pels are a lazy team.  Never make a second effort on D.  Often don’t even make a first effort.

[Scottiej23]

Nice to see Tatum dominating the offence like this.

[nickagneta]

Jayson Tatum with the game of his career!!!!

Go get 'me young man!!!!

[Surferdad]

Shaping up to be a career night for JT.


C’s hitting 3’s, Pels mostly 2’s.   

[CelticSooner]

Looks like Tatum's first 40 pointer.

Can’t believe Taco and Tremont are inactive !!!

Can’t believe Taco and Tremont are inactive !!!

I am still looking to see an all-rookie lineup on the floor before the season is over. Tacko, Williams, Waters, Edwards & Green. Outside of the inaugural season, I wonder if this has ever happened?

[Scottiej23]

Nice work Jayson on the career high. Through three quarters no less!
