Celtics (20-19) at Cavaliers (14-25) Game #40 3/17/21

Is brad waiting until they are down by 20 to call a timeout? Looks like they have all of them.

Wow, this Celtics team stinks. Getting owned by ... Darius Garland? Who the crap is that?

Can't hit threes, can't defend them either. SMH

And as a Celtics fan, what's the "bright future" I keep hearing about and am supposed to be looking forward to? Kemba playing back-to-back games? Tatum having two good games in a row? All the young guys not using "back-to-back" as an excuse?

Jaylen stepping out of bounds is fun.

Cavs announcer summed up Tatum this year really well. He said two years ago he was settling for too many outside 2 pointers instead of driving. He said Tatum is doing the same thing this year only he is settling for contested, step back threes.

Dude is spot on.

Tatum seems to be afraid of absorbing physical contacts driving to the basket, thus we see  the Euro steps and the occasional offensive fouls pushing off the defenders. That explains the lack of FTs that the Celtics has.

Untill Tatum drives more and punishes the defender, he won't be a complete player ala Kobe. As of now, I consider him as soft.

Wow this team is trash right now, great work Danny.

[Jiri Welsch]

Fourth worst half of the season (behind the 1st in Atlanta and the entire Wizards game)

Smart with 0 assist and 3 TO...

He always struggles when he's the primary passer like this

[liam]

Bench:7-13

Starters:5- 22

Maybe play the bench more. Maybe let Nesmith play or is he even there. So hard to tell any more.

[colincb]

5-22 for the starters with 8 TOs

[esel1000]

Let’s all look on the bright side, if DA decides to sit on his hands per usual and do nothing to build an actual team, we’ll be in prime position for a great pick.

That’s how I would explain it if I were him, because he’s going to need to explain to the fan base why after all of these years his product now blows.

It might be spot on, but mathematically I bet our coaches aren't too mad about it sadly.

[Chief]

Just bad

[Goldstar88]

Grant, you suck.

[gouki88]

I don't even care that Grant did that

[SCeltic34]

Old school players must be laughing at the fact that that's consider a flagrant 1.  Soft.

[radiohead]

Grant Williams just complained on that non goaltending call which resulted into a fastbreak. Get down on D!! Add to that he comes upmwih a flagrant foul after. You can’t be that entitled.
