Celtics (3-2) at Hawks (2-3) Round 1 Game #6 4/27/23

[SCeltic34]

Tatum settling.  Scared.

CALL THE FOUL REF!!!

[jpotter33]

Joe's incompetence in managing this series on full display. We're really going to pull a Bucks because Joe can't make any adjustments and is essentially Bud 2.0 with timeouts, aren't we?

[SCeltic34]

We still somehow have the lead despite a monstrous quarter from Young.  Not a good quarter, but hard to complain after all that.

[blink]

Maybe a little bit of Fast PP to give TY a different look on def.  we seem to be failing at disrupting him.

[SparzWizard]

Trae dangerous from 30-35 feet. Play close-up D or double up.

[PAOBoston]

Seems like game 7 will be inevitable. Awful first quarter. Trae Young looks like the Cs daddy right now. Defense is in shambles. Rebounding in shambles. Once their 3 pt shooting cools off, Atlanta goons blow them out.

[Phantom255x]

Already feels like there’ll be Game 7

[SparzWizard]

34 points allowed by the Celtics D. Atrocity.

I've been calling for it!

[Who]

Wow, 18pts in Q1 for Trae.

[blink]

Why can’t our team do SOMEthing to try and slow down T Young?

[liam]

Gotta play faster!!! DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE!!!!

[jpotter33]

Maybe we need to have a rule that we shoot no 3s for 3-4 minutes and only attack the rim and midrange.

1) Would love it.

2) We all know this wouldn't happen because Joe literally worships the 3 ball, whether it's a good shot at that point in the game or not.

Tatum in particular should follow such a rule; he's so much better when he starts off the game attacking the rim rather than shooting from three. It's really no different than when baseball players always eat a pitch to start their at-bat to get a read of the ball.

[Stig]

He might pull a Jimmy Butler on us
