Lakers (24-25) at Celtics (37-11) Game #49 2/1/24

Typical when Boston plays a team with a preseason roster.

Embarrassing really. Will be the worst loss in two years if this continues

The Lakers are shooting 52% from 3.

The starters look like they thought they could sleepwalk through this one but obviously they can't.

They have to actually run their offense and not just throw the ball around in the 2nd half.

The Lakers were red hot from 3, but the C's are shooting 7-23 and are still jacking them up.

Porzingis and even Tatum should be manhandling the Lakers inside but nah, keep chucking 3s.

This is what worries me come playoff time, when this team is cold from 3 they struggle and it becomes even tougher when the other team can shoot well. That's how Miami went up 3-0 against us last year's ECF and won the series.

Some of the most uninspiring basketball I've watched.  They better come out a different team in the 2nd half.  What a joke.

You people are hilarious. The Clippers game a few nights ago was absolutely horrific and they lost by 40. They are bad tonight but it's not even close to the Clippers or even Bucks game a month ago 

This is against the hated Fakers though…and one without LeBum and AD so everyone expected us to be leading by 20 at halftime not down by 14 throwing the ball away and our best player sleepwalking. That cognitive dissonance of being humiliated by a so called G League team is what is causing the outrage I think 

[Phantom255x]

Good thing the Celtics are an awesome 3rd quarter team!

Lazy offense with no plan leads to lazy defense

Tatum is mentally checked out tonight. Just complaining for calls.

Rest of the starters treating this game like a shoot around.

[Indocelts]

The best recipe for any of our playoff opponents to beat us is by sitting down their 2 best players.

Pathetic.

Man, I am hating those Jays' body language now.

It's actually much worse.

The Clippers and Bucks are legitimate contenders. The Lakers are not, ESPECIALLY without AD and Lebron. This is absolutely a much worse performance than those games, because we just flat out didn't come out to play thinking we would beat them on talent alone.

The studio crew are clowns but they have nailed this one - weak mental focus.

[j804]

Chuck is actually right for once we’re soft and win on talent not with toughness

This team is soft and our coach last year in the postseason was awful and will be awful again this postseason

[celticinorlando]

Im convinced joe has no clue how to implement an offense that isn’t just chucking up 3s over and over.

Cs can get to the rim at will. Should be back to the basket posting up these guys.

We need to trade one of them because their lazy attitude has been holding this team back all these years.

I vote Brown to be traded.
