I swear the C's problem is that they think too much.

It explains the bad shooting on wide open jumpers (where opponents hit every in-motion shot), explains the lapses on D, explains the bad motion on O, the weird hesitations everywhere ...

Maybe they should do what the Rockets did. Just jumpshots 5 feet behind the 3 point line. That Schroeder hail mary actually looked like it had more of a chance of going in than our "normal" 3's.

It's better than standing there wide open going "oh hey im wide open maybe i should shoot it am i sure i cant pass it is there someone open no i dont think so i dont think ill get in trouble for shooting it okay well i have the ball here so i might as well here goes"

Sick. Tatum getting some LeBron calls.

Hopefully Tatum doesn't act like an idiot like Lebron does.

Another bad quarter overall. This is not a fun Friday night yet.

blazers 6 - 8 from 3.

celtics 2 - 10 from three.

soft defense by the celtics.

stop me if you've heard this one before.

Even if we get a good shooter it's not gonna solve this.

Grant is somehow not affected by this though

10 three point shot attempts so far and they hit two. Solution? Shoot more threes, obviously. I mean they are going to fall eventually... ::)

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.

Bad shooting IS infectious though.

tatum has made at least 4 bone headed defensive decisions so far this game.

Saw on Twitter that someone was arguing that the recent NBA ball change is likely at least one of the reasons for the numerous stars and shooters who are down in their percentages this year.
