To be honest, it's not this loss that upsets me, especially since it's only game #2.

But the 3rd quarter struggles, lack of bench scoring, Tatum disappearing for stretches, blowing leads very quickly, most of it is still happening. PTSD from last season and especially the playoffs. Can't expect Teague to put up like 19 every game.
This is going to be a problem all year. In game 1, they got great bench production. Tonight, not so much. They need another vet wing off the bench to help pick up that unit. The rookies will be up and down.

Tatum and Brown are going to have to improve their passing and playmaking, particularly when defenses tighten. That's our #1 limiting factor right now

Losing to what has been the best team in the league so far with a bunch of cheap calls going against is no tragedy.

Allen actually stayed out in the corner to cover nesmith instead of helping on the drive. Gravity!

If BS doesn’t bring back JT before the 6mins mark, then might as well don’t bring him back

That’s where we’re missing Hayward.

Brooklyn is shooting 46% from 3, Boston 28%. That tells a lot of the tale.
