Kemba and Jaylen are too similar in terms of the way they like to create offense. Its brutal that Kemba refuses to evolve into a player that facilitates and hits open shots.

He cant be a guy that initiates offense. Its brutal watching him dribble around for 15 seconds with no direction. He doesn't look to set people for open passes, it's all about setting people up to get himself a shot. I dont mind when JB and JT (though he needs to get better at setting people up to draw fouls) just look for their own shot. But Kemba isnt that dude anymore.

He, in a lot of ways, is Dannys biggest failure.

Man, this team is flat-out stupid with the double-teams. All the opposing players have to do is dribble a couple time, wait for the inevitable double, then toss it to the nearby guy who is wide open. The guy who is wide open also realizes the Celtics are 99% likely to leave him open so long as his buddy bothers to dribble more than once and gives time for the help defender to abandon his man.

It is amazing how the same stupid play works again and again.

These refs really have to tone this down. They are way too involved in this game.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

The current Celtics roster will continue to struggle. Danny needs to come up with something from the TPE. There is a limit as to what Tatum and Brown can achieve without a better supporting cast.

It's such a shame to see Gordon Hayward flourish elsewhere as a scorer and a play maker whilst Kemba Walker is a shadow of the player he was

These foul calls are a joke

On both sides, for the record

I mean, I know the GWill foul benefitted us, but since when are we calling those ticky tack fouls? It's a foul every single time down the floor. THIS ISN'T ABOUT YOU, REFS! LET THEM PLAY!

Brown in first half with an amazingly efficient 20 points.

Brown in second half is barely allowed to touch the ball.

And no, it's not a Kemba thing, it's an entire team thing.

It seems like this team has had a bad habit of shutting out the hot hand over the last few seasons.
