Robert Williams needs to be benched... he’s not pulling his weight last few games and we can’t think defensively if we want to come back here. We need shots.

Lineup should be Pritchard, brown, Horford, Tatum smart. Everyone shoots. Post Horford on Curry and abuse that or kick out for a 3. Pritchard is the best option on 3.

Except Pritchard has been a no-show since game 1. He's complete liability right now.

In the offense I’m describing, he’s in the corner ready to shoot. nothing else. He’s our best 3pt shooter statistically.

I'd rather have him on the floor than D White. White is struggling too much on offense. Get Pritchard out there next to Jaylen and Tatum. Most of his minutes coming with only one of them on the court. Get him out there with both of them and stretch the floor.

Golden State is pretty comfortably 9 or even 10-11 guys deep.

The Celtics are only 7-8.

7-8 is pushing it. Most of the series they haven't had anything outside of their starting five.

Best starting five in the league and close to the worst bench. And it's showing tonight. Can't play the starting five all game long, though they may end up playing most of the second half.

When there was 2 seconds left, Smart passes to Horford for a 24 sec violation....when there was 19 seconds on the clock, Smart shoots a 3 pointer and misses....then misses two layups---DONE.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

Cannot run it back next season with this team as constructed. Bench has to be upgraded.

I’m shopping brown this off-season

Careful, I got yelled at for saying we may have to trade Brown. Need a better shot creator and ball handler next to Tatum.

Well let’s start off by getting a real point guard. That’s a main issue of this team when our only other ballhandler other than Tatum is Smart.

Let's see what they call here. Anything with the elbow is generally called a flagrant nowadays, thought I'm sure they'll find a way to be inconsistent.

Yeah when I meant "7-8" I was more hinting at the fact that when even a few of their bench guys don't perform it just puts enormous pressure on our starters to perform. Look at Golden State, it's not like they needed Curry or Klay to score 40+ every single night but they were able to get good contributions from Poole, Porter, etc. C's really haven't gotten anything from their bench since Game 1

Tatum has run out of gas. He’s legs are gone. He’s played the most minutes this playoffs coming off the Olympics last summer.

He's not mentally tough enough for this stage. Maybe one day but that's just the truth.

You are 100 percent correct. He doesn’t have the killer instinct in him yet.

...but, but...Mamba mentality

Agree with JVG. Not a flagrant.

Drafting Romeo and nesmith and those two not developing into reliable rotation players just have hurt this team.

I know Romeo was a throw in for white but they missed on those two picks

Wiggins has destroyed Boston these past few games, been fantastic on the boards.
