Celtics (12-10) at Jazz (19-5) Game #23 2/9/21

[Alec14]

Since this quarter began Kemba has had the ball in his hands 80% of the time possession has been with the Celtics. All he's done is miss shots and dribble aimlessly. Horrible.

Oh my Lord just let them play, refs!

[esel1000]

Kemba is going to lose us another game.

I hate to say it but he’s actively making us worse. Team was playing well before his return, with all of his bricks it’s just ugly.

[PAOBoston]

Need something from Tatum and Kemba. Otherwise this is going to be a blowout shortly.

[jpotter33]

Ugh, Kemba is just awful out there.

And typical Brad waits a half dozen possessions too late once again before calling a timeout, leading to a double digit lead. 

[esel1000]

So I usually say that this criticism is a little overblown but Stevens called this timeout about 3 possessions too late.

Kemba needs to sit, he’s clearly not right and he’s going black hole. He’s hurting the team, and until he figures it out they’re better without him.

[Tr1boy]

Kemba looks cooked indeed. Cant even shoot a mid range without getting blocked

The problem is they are all deferring to Kemba, and Kemba is the worst player on the floor right now by a wide margin

[seancally]

Can somebody please, for once, just go up and into Gobert? Is he literally going to block every single shot? Guys are stopping in their tracks when the approach the paint and he’s there. He’s a great defender but you’re making it easy on him.

[Atzar]

We can’t defend Utah, and outside of Jaylen, we can’t score on them either.  Not a good combination.

I don’t really think they are deferring. Utah doing a good job of basically taking away Tatum. Brown has feasted. But Kemba has been ice cold. Need someone to give some production from somewhere.

[esel1000]

Also glad they decided to go away from Brown, the one guy who has done anything this game. Such low bball IQ across the board right now...

[Tr1boy]

Thats not anything

Its not even a foul. Ball 1st

[jpotter33]

Amazing how Mitchell gets all those soft calls yet Tatum can't get that crap.
