Ime better realize Smart isn’t the answer at PG. He should be an energy guy off the bench.

If we’re going off tonight’s performance, I’d say we need to bench Tatum. He’s been awful. Not bad. Awful.

Ugh, shoot ourselves in the foot any time we get a chance to get back in this.

But the game tonight is on Tatum. As the team's best player, these kinds of games can't happen. This is probably the worst I've ever seen him offensively.

This is ridiculous. Seriously why is Grant playing?

Oh and glad to see that we go back to taking terrible shots with no ball movement when things get bad. Glad to see some things never change.

He is definitely not the problem right now.

Agreed. I’m usually really tough on Grant but the guy hasn’t been our problem.

Lost my feed so now I'm just reading the gamecast and scrolling here.

It's not less frustrating.

So what’s so different about this Celtics team from last year? Careless with ball, poor shot selection, and poor defense. I guess Brad wasn’t the issue.

Neither Smart or Schroeder are the answer at PG. Horford needs to start when he’s back, offense needs to run through him.

Should have been Tatum but he's having his usual slow starts to the year/game.

He was good in the Nets series last season.

Looked like two different teams from the first half to the second. Not good.

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.

I mean, let's give it more than a single game before determining that.

The first half was great offensively. We moved the ball, pushed it, and did a good job of following the offensive philosophy. I think Tatum has just been so bad tonight that we couldn't sustain it without him.
