Celtics (13-11) at Lakers (12-12) Game #25 12/7/21

[#1P4P]

The Lakers wanted to give the lead up in the beginning of the 4th and the offense and defensive rebounding no showed.

Pritchard and Nesmith seldom show up in these games; I take into account that they’re sophomores, but they’re supposed to be shooters!

Shooting now!

Too little, too late! They missed the shots that counted!

On to the Clips…

Tough loss with another game tomorrow. 

[Kiorrik]

Bah. Wish we won that one. Played poorly tho.

Next game plz.

[Silas]

Tatum with a solid game but 5 TOs.

They need to work their way in. Pritchard shot the second best percentage from 3  tonight and he didn't play until late in the second half.

This one was over in the 3rd when we could buy a bucket.

We dropped to the 10th spot in the East with that loss.

Deservedly so. That was disgusting.

They’re not good enough defensively so Udoka has them on a short leash. I like both and have consistently praised them, but they have come up short in the big moments that they’ve played thus far.

The Lakers were ready to give up the lead when they opened the 4th with 5 consecutive misses and we followed suit. Pritchard and Nesmith were brought in to change the tide (I know it’s tough, but that’s their role) and they couldn’t provide the spark despite being fresh.

Terrible game. Pretty hard to complete a season sweep with them but the Lakers do it easy with us. 08-09, 11-12, 13-14...

I said be a 500 team & fighting for a playoff berth before the season and unfortunately looks like it

37 year old Lebron is still good. Hate it.

Lebron's teams seem to make celebrating themselves an art form.  From the old Heat days to the current Lakers.  Westbrook fits in perfectly in terms of self celebrating even if he's not a perfect basketball fit.  The guy who claims to have an old school mentality just loves to act like a moron every time he makes a nice play, regardless of the score of the game.  He just has to make a dumb face and dance around every time he makes a nice play even if the game is a blowout.  Such a frontrunner.
