I do not understand why we keep giving Tatum the ball with the game on the line. Has he ever won a game with n the final seconds? He must be shooting like 2% in those situations. You have a walking mismatch in Porzingis and refuse to use him when it matters.

Yes, a ton actually lol He just had a game-winner against Philly in February.

Up until about mid last year after that last one in Philly, he was the highest fg% in NBA history in tying or go-ahead shots under 24 seconds to go. He's just been pretty bad since then for whatever reason, which has colored our perspective.

NBA players are so bad at fundamentals. If Derrick White blocks out on the last Detroit 3-point attempt, this game is over. He did not even look for his guy, just turned and looked at the basket and now Celts go to overtime hoping to avoid the most embarrassing loss in years. White one of the smarter players on the team.

Oh my God, guys. Get the freaking rebound!

Why the heck are we playing double big if it's not even going to help us defensively or on the boards, Joe?? We're just giving them open corner three after open corner three with their smaller 4!

Seriously guys.  We'd have won easily if you'd just box the hell out.

Stevens for Al, but Joe doesn't use his hustle guys. Al ain't doing much.

I trust White more in these end of game situations than Tatum. Even now, he's making good plays
