I can’t remember who it was who made the comparison, but maybe Stevens is our Del Harris (LAL coach before Jackson)
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

Did Brad tell Williams not to shoot any more 3's?  Because he was more wide open there than I have seen anyone all season.

I think when every possession matters, Williams maybe realizes that they can get a better shot. Even if it's wide open

If I knew they were just going to mail it in tonight I'd have sold my tickets

Don’t get me wrong; this is super-frustrating, but didn’t you kind-of know they were going to mail it in, though?

yeah, i honestly expected two things tonight: we’d mail it in and get completely dominated & tatum would go full blown hero ball and shoot us out of the game.

Edit: Nope, he shot another horrible 3. UGH

Boston punishing that rim with bricks like they’re mad at it.

3-18 from 3 and that's with Kemba and GWill just hitting 2.

There are games where I get reminded that the Celtics are just a combination of a lot of above average and good players.  I really don’t see a superstar out there.

We all know we don't have a superstar. We can contend but its important that all of our main guys are available and at least 3 of them dont have an off game. I would like to see the splits for when 2 of our top 4 guys have an off game vs one or none.

You are not contending for nothing without a superstar. The bucks are clear and away better than us. I thought we were a bit better than this, but we suck. Our offense is hard to watch and we have crap perimeter D. We have been talking about we need a big, but we been getting touched from 3 a lot.

Tbh I haven’t seen smart do much D this season. I saw an improvement in Tatum with his help D but 1 on 1 no one has stud out in that department.

It’s cool to not have a superstar but the Celtics just aren’t GREAT at anything. Like not one particular thing are we good at as a collective group. We have 3 players scoring 20ppg but we aren’t even top 10 in any offensive team stat, not even in points per game.... I have no clue how we have the record we have, I vote it’s been a weak schedule, but people love to argue that. What you can’t argue is that we aren’t a true contender.

We aren’t 1 piece away, I have no clue what you do with this team other than just watch us always lose against teams that actually matter.

Yes you can. But you need to have everything running smoothly. AKA the Pistons of the 2000s. It is possible but all things must be checked. If even 1 guy is out, no way it happens.

This ain’t the 2000s anymore bro... them days are over.

Not to mention they were an EXCEPTIONAL defensive team which the Celtics are just not at all.

But fellas I’m going to finish watching Tacko and go to bed. Idk how I feel about this team. I will say they are far more enjoyable than last year, but.... there is something completely off with them.

Brown gone + Tatum being dumb + Hayward being a total wimp = LOSS

McHale's favorite ruse is putting paper in the mouths of sleeping teammates. "Try using one of these cocktail napkins," he said. "When just the edge sticks out of a guy's mouth, it looks like he's got fangs. The best part is when he wakes up."
