Oracle:
Sorry, kid. You got the gift, but it looks like you're waiting for something.

Tatum:
What?

Oracle:
Your next season, maybe. Who knows? That's the way these things go.

There is no playoffs...

Tatum with 7 points near halftime.

There's no doubt he's a superstar-caliber talent, but it's frustrating how inconsistent he is. We're not asking for 50+ points every night but if he has a 50-point night and then a few games of mediocre performances then that's not going to cut it.

[Ogaju]

We are just awful. But it would be nice if we had some fight. Ainge should be taking notes and divest us of all players who laugh and smile after doing something stupid

This!

TP!

It’s okay to smile when you getting whooped when you play for Brad Stevens

[cltc5]

Epic failure of a rebuild

No playoffs for you!

Who knows, maybe Washington did "tank" the Celtics game to avoid BKN first round lol.

I mean, that's exactly what we should've done. Much better chance against Philly than Brooklyn. Plus, as unlikable as Philly is, Brooklyn is that much more unlikable with three snakes on their roster.

I'm asking for 50 a night. Full Bernard King, Baby!

[ozgod]

Take away Harris and the rest of the Nets shot 18-39

[Ogaju]

Well on the brightside, BKN should keep LA from getting the title.

This.

Tank like we shoulda tanked the year ainge went out and got IT.  When we coulda probably got a top 5 draft pick.  Gotta do it the Celtic way

[ausbacker]

Simple reality is we don't have enough talent to consistently beat star-laden teams.

[radiohead]

Brad should bench his starters and see if any of them asks to be put back in. It looks like they’ve all given up.

They were probably scared of Pacers

Smart of the NBA to schedule like 2-3 off-days between each game. Otherwise this series would be over by like mid-week
