Infuriating loss. Felt like we were helpless to stop them. Guess in the modern nba, getting hot from 3 = automatic W, for the most part.

Lol @ infuriating :]

You just get angry at every single loss then? We played great. Sometimes that's all ya can do.
Idk it infuriating to me when you do nearly everything right and you still lose because they got hot jacking 3's all game. Most other nights this is a nice W.

That’s what they do every game, though. They have a lot of good shooters and take a lot of 3’s. Just made more than normal tonight.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

I just realized, I completely forgot that the Celtics were without Jaylen Brown tonight. Just shows you how good they were without him. The thought that he was out never crossed my mind during the game.

what are you saying…..if Jaylen gets you a big with two elite shooters do you do it?


Just saying how good the C's were and how good the game was tonight, and we can be even better with Jaylen.

But they seem to play better without him.

They sure did hit a lot more than normal. Wonder if their heavy reliance on 3's is a reason for their underperforming in the past couple of playoffs.

Ime sounds overwhelmed in the post press. Learning hard on the job. Feel for him — Pretty good effort but the Jazz are just a far better team.

Great game …Cs need a more balanced team…need some sharp shooters.

I have faith in the coaching staff. There are signs they’re getting this bunch to play together. Give them 20-40 games to work Jaylen in and I bet we’re going to see good stuff by playoff time.

Jazz are a solid team but this was crazypants. They don’t shoot like this most nights.

I think it's more that with Richardson, Schroder and Langford all playing well, it never felt like we were missing anyone, which is great. This team is much deeper and well balanced this season. We could lose a guy at any one spot, and there's someone decent ready to step in, and someone else ready to back them up off the bench.

We rank 25th in 3 point shooting percentage.

We are a poor shooting team. It is what is keeping us from hanging with the good teams.

Well Ime gotta make it work. That is why he makes the big money.

Someone needs to let the coach know that. C’s Took 39 shots from 3pt tonight. It’s a bad strategy if you don’t have guys who can consistently make them.
