Gotta play tighter defense on Strus, and White needs to snap out of his funk.

Well, up 5 with them white hot from three, giving up 10 turnovers and 6 offensive rebounds, and White being non-existent and JB hurting as much as helping is not too bad, I guess.

Simply have to make better decisions with the ball, stop forcing it, and someone other than Jrue and JT playing defense.

Holiday with a pretty good half...10pts,5rebs,5assists,3stls and 1blk.

Pretty good?

Might be his best playoff half for us so far.

Going at Al over and over. Put Q in there. He's taller more athletic at this point and much stronger.

I'm convinced Big Al is just a big idiot when it comes to the pick n roll defense. How many times will he drop in coverage and give up wide open 3s before he learns??
everyone got so sensitive after 9-11... thanks alot bin laden

Defensive intensity is totally lacking.
Brown playing with his head up his butt.
Nothing from White. 
Nothing again from Houser. Give someone else a chance.
Yet, they’re still up by 5 thanks to Tatum.

Really nervous that Tatum picks up a second technical in the second half. It’s been that kind of game.

Yes. Brown has been killing us. Rolling his eyes at everything out there while he turns the ball over repeatedly and takes bad shots.

Starting to feel like too many mouths to feed and one of our players is always gonna be in a “funk” as good as they’ve been they’re never clicking on all cylinders

On the plus side, Kornet has filled in admirably.

Or how about the guy we got for this very reason in X, who was excellent in his limited minutes in the Boston games early in the series? Not sure why he's just completely out of the rotation now.

Joe will never be that innovative as to know how to use players with certain strengths in certain situations.
