Celtics (13-5) at Knicks (4-15) Game #19 12/1/19

[Neurotic Guy]

C's can get no separation.   Smart a little not smart on that one.

[PAOBoston]

Oh my Smart. Back to shooting bricks from 3.

Wonder if they Smart heave with like 4 seconds left will make it to Shaqtin.

Reminded me a play from rec league when I was 12.  Coach yells out 1 minute left, so this kid launches a half court shot.  Said he thought the coach said 1 second left.  I'm still laughing at that one 20+ years later.

such inconsistent defense. and how many layups did the celtics miss? sigh. but they are up at the half...even if only by a tiny bit. 

i give knicks credit for making some real amazing shots, but they wont keep that up for the second half.

celtics will pull it together as a team and pull ahead for the win!!

Tatum is so weird. He has games like this where he just hits everything, the fade-away two looks unstoppable and the side step three beautiful. then he has games where he bricks lay ups and misses 5 spot up threes.

he is not alone. walker, smart, and brown are collectively 3 for 14 from 3 point land.

Ehhh, most have been good shots. That last Smart three was because he thought there was less time on the clock. The C's keep getting this quality of look they will pull away.

i can live with that. i dislike his how he decides that he will shoot the ball regardless of the defense or his position on the court. you can see how mentally he is like marcus morris at times. he is going to shoot no matter what happens.

I agree in general, but he's been good passing this game. Has six assists which  is a career high.

Kemba Walker seems to be either scorching hot or ice cold, not much in between. Hopefully he heats up a little in this second half.

[Who]

Am I the only one who thinks the Cs have looked like a very average team since Hayward has gone down? They haven't been very impressive the past couple of weeks.

Jaylen and Tatum need to provide more on offense. They haven't done enough.

[Neurotic Guy]

Has there been a 5 point lead in this game?

Talk about jinx

[PAOBoston]

Brad gonna call a timeout or what?

[Neurotic Guy]

Geez.  That looks not good.

[PAOBoston]

This game is not trending in right direction.
