How on earth does any self-respecting coach let Smart shoot 7 threes in a half

He’s shot 45% from 3 this series coming into tonight.
I don't think that that's an invitation to double his three point output though. Especially given he was 2-9 last game

Who else is going to take the shots?
Fournier, Pritchard or Nesmith are all infinitely preferable

Agreed. In that order too, lol.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Move Kemba and smart in the off season
Love them both, but that’s fine by me.  This is not entertainment.

Build around the core of Tatum/Brown/Timelord.

What a bad last possession to end the half.

Down by less than 10, guess we should be thankful considering the poor play/coaching.

I honestly don’t know how we’re still in this.  As poorly as we shot, and as well as BRK did, we should be down by 20.

Why have Tatum bring the ball up so Smart can pass it to him in the post???

Ride or die with Pritchard!!!

Brad is phoning this series in.

wow. celtics starters are 4-21 from three point land.  :P

if they shot even average they would be tied or ahead.

well, not a great half, but not terrible either.

no idea how we're within single digits after that half.  I'll take it.  better be some serious halftime adjustments to stop the Nets layup parade and to get this team untracked on offense

Honestly...the NBA manages its product tightly..the fact that not one nba partner has mentioned the Kyrie logo incident even when a hall of farmer like KG mouthed his displeasure is very telling....if they can control the narrative like that..do you really think they want this NETS team in TD Garden again in this series?

And only made one!

because you thought he'd be in double digits for attempts?   ;)
