Timberwolves (13-39) at Celtics (26-26) Game #53 4/9/21

[radiohead]

Our bench scoring is weak link. That is why Fournier is so important.  Adds 20 points off the bench.

I totally forgot we still had Fournier. Gutsy win though after that huge collapse in the 4th.

Perk now trying to take credit for the Tatum game. I share the surname with the man and it saddens me now that I find him as lightweight and annoying as I do, it's a shame.

Payton +13!

Tatum read that article that called him out for nonchalance

[tstorey_97]

Not that it matters, but, if the Celtics had played a more balanced game, they would have got up some points and put pressure on a funky Twolves club who might've cracked far earlier.

It was not a work of art.

Tatum with 53 points and a plus/minus of 0 for the game. Sums him up perfectly. All style, no substance.

You said that a few pages ago but the copy & paste failed you because he finished +5.

Not to mention he played a bunch of his minutes with Kemba... no offense to Kemba he was great in OT but his defense is nonexistent.

I wonder what Tatum’s +/- was when he had like 46 up 13 or whatever it was with 3 mins left.

I'm not sure why Kemba can play 40 minutes and not be able to play in a back to back.

Body needs time to rejuvenate

The problem I have is playing your main guys heavy minutes during a season you are not winning a title anyway.
Save those legs for future seasons, hopefully, of contention.

OK then, he had 50 and a 0 plus/minus. late in the game. To me, that says a lot and not good.

Would you take 30 with a plus 10 in a loss?

Lol, he discounts all the games Tatum leads the team in +/-. The problem with him doesn't seem to be Tatum the player... I'll leave it at that in the thread.

Payton +13!

I thought he played great when he was on the floor.

Tatum was great tonight. He played a fantastic game.

Guy puts up 53 and you use a meaningless stat to diss him. All style, no substance indeed.

Yes, Yes, I admit it, I hate Tatum personally !!!!!!

Payton +13!

I thought he played great when he was on the floor.

He had that big 3 and crucial lob to RW when they were mounting a comeback. He’ll get there.

Also solid defense and that driving layup.
