Doc pulled Gabe again. It's not his fault, Eddie just dribbles in place until the shot clock runs down.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I don't think it's good for Gabe to be switching in between the point and off guard as much as he is doing these days. If you want him to learn a new position you have to play him there.

I fear this will only slow down his development.

This has turned into a fairly routine win for the Celtics. Good performance today.

I'd like to see Pruitt play the whole fourth quarter here.

Hold on, Toronto is making a comeback.

we should be up 30 by now, given how badly the raps have shot and no calderon.

The Raptors perimeter defense is lousy. Ray Allen is in heaven.

Disappointing to see the Celtics allow the Raptors to get back into this game. Hopefully they'll put the brakes on them now, and build that lead back up quickly.

Yup we've gotten lazy in the fourth.

Doc is not a fan of trying to stop a run with a time out. that is my biggest pet peeve with Doc's in game coaching (that and the rotations).
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Honestly? 17-5? Honestly?

I think this shows one of the biggest problems with this team during this stretch...the 4th quarter.

They've went small. I wonder if Doc will match. He loves small ball. >:(

The starters aren't going to be able to hit shots with no legs in the fourth. I think he takes them out way to late into the 3rd quarter. He should take them out earlier and then they can go in with 10 in the fourth.

Yeah the same thing in the Houston game. Couldn't buy a bucket in the fourth.
