Isn't it a beautiful thing when our team actually plays hard.
The problem is the we’re playing hard but the Lakers aren’t.  If they step up we’re toast.

Confirmation bias.

Marc Jackson can't stop praising every single play the Lakers make. Disgusting. He makes no effort at all to hide his bias.

He's a terrible commentator. As are most of them.
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

Danny needs to add bench scoring AND another big man to this team by the deadline.

If he doesn't do that (or only makes a move for one thing), that should tell you everything
And what is that?  No trades?  Not a contender?  Something else?

They own the paint.  Seven blocks already.  People will complain but it’s threes or bust this game.

So far? You are right.

Steven's treating this like a playoff game...just an 8 man rotation. No rookies in this game.

Combination of not believing we're a contender and Danny not really trying for a deep playoff run.

I mean, they still could go on a deep run, but a lot will have to break our way seeing how good these other teams are

The future MVP Tatum showed up to play today! Just needs to do it more consistently and be this aggressive more often.

As he should be, this game is a good test for the main rotation guys.

Why would Jackson be biased toward the lakers?  Maybe the bias is with us?

McGee, Davis, Howard, and Cousins......yeah like anyone has a great chance of stopping the Lakers this year barring injury or luck.
Lol. Cousins showed himself to be a complete negative last playoffs.

And we're currently up on the Lakers.. ?
Those statistics that show Cousins to be a negative are false because he said so. See how it works?

His only pro-Celtics bias is his pro-Kemba bias, as far as I can hear
