Celtics (1-1) at Knicks (0-2)Game #3 10/26/19

[Neurotic Guy]

Pretty bad start and finish of the half.   Knicks completely out-energized the C' in the last half of the 2nd quarter.  The Hayward and Tatum that we were expecting/ hoping for have not yet arrived.  Tatum will come around.  Gordon seems so sloppy. 

[Vox_Populi]

Tatum needs to just be better. And he can be.

Both Brown and Tatum can't defend PFs.

Brown has been excellent tonight against Randle.

[BringToughnessBack]

If only we had a big alpha who could put up 30 plus on nights like these (Philly game it was needed for sure) but are not cancerous to rest of the team. Maybe Tatum in 3 years can be that but not at 21 years of age.

Man I HATE that Tatum spent time with Kobe that one offseason 

[keevsnick]

Tatum is 1/9. 0/3 from three.

[gouki88]

Tatum 1-9 from the field. An absolutely brutal start to the season so far for him.

Gotta wonder if Jaylen's extension has gotten into Tatum's head. He may be feeling too much pressure to perform this season.

Jeesh, that would be not good at all.

His performance so far this season has been pretty garbage. Nice stats, but awful efficiency.

Brown has been excellent tonight against Randle.

What are you talking about?

Reason why Brown had to sit was because of foul trouble.

Randle had no problem backing Brown down.

see I don't  mind his shot selection this year. Its really just that nothing is going in the basket.

Tatum, Kemba, Gordon
7-25 from the field

I mean that is the game there.

Tatum ceiling is Andrew Wiggins at this point.

[Ogaju]

Tatum needs a big time weight program. Does the team encourage this or just leave them to their own devices.

Randle is a tough cover for our team.  If Grant was 2-3 inches taller, longer he would be a good match.  That isn't a good matchup for Jaylen, or Smart, or Tatum.

None of Jaylens fouls have been against Randle. One was a loose ball foul, another was on what was actually a clean Block against Mitchell Robinson. So what are you talking about?

come on now

much better already

Wiggins is a dud when the game intensity increases

Tatum excels

Tatum needs to learn to excel prior to when the game tightens up. Keep things simple
