Spurs (15-20) at Celtics (25-9) Game #35 1/8/20

It doesn't help that we have a non NBA player as a backup point guard, playing considerable minutes

how did Lonnie Walker drop to 18th?

looks like a top 5 talent

[jpotter33]

Going back and looking at the ejection, that's a borderline flagrant foul by Aldridge on that screen. Pure incompetence that they let that go, then have the audacity to throw out three technicals to us.

Just pure garbage from the refs. The league should hold them more accountable. The fact that they get held to such a high esteem for as mediocre of a job as they do is unbelievable.

So did Ish Smith.

Two whippings in a row by sub-500 teams

That asian ref seriously ruined the Celts chances to make a comeback tonight

I hope the head ref will talk to him

Kemba got screwed and his emotions got the best of him

just one T and walk away ref

Similar screen that broke Hayward's hand.

Got humiliated by a literal G league team and "bounced back" by getting destroyed at home to a team that's 15-20. I  am pretty sure this team doesn't have a deep playoff run in them as constructed (I actually think they would be much better off trading Hayward for 2 or 3 bonafied role players), and definitely not without a healthy Kemba

I'd be all for replacing Wannamaker with Tremont Waters. At worst he couldn't be that much of a step down. At best I think he has real NBA talent.

Spurs is not really a sub 500 team

So who’s the piñata for this one? I vote The ref for ejecting Kemba, followed by Kemba for not controlling himself, followed by Brad for not preparing the team for the start of the game. Hayward and Tatum are honorary piñatas.

i know you’re being somewhat sarcastic but i’ll bite anyway. like i stated earlier, when the list is that long, the blame goes to the teacher. brad owns this 100%.

While I agree they played terrible tonight, no hustle. It would be really nice to have a bench. They have no one on the bench to come in and score some points when the starters are not having a good night.
Seriously, the worst bench in the league.

Little bit of everything I think. The refs definitely swung this one in the third, though, and at some point even the biggest of Brad's fanboys have to admit that he has outright failed to have his team ready multiple times this season, especially regarding this issue of terribly slow starts.

[CF033]

I still believe that our whole starting lineup has a little bit of flu lol.
