Why does Horford keep shooting 3s? He’s 2 for his last 15?

The Clevland strategey seems to be make Horford take every three.

And it's apparently working.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

This team can't deal with prosperity.  They have to make things difficult.

the celtics need Joe to really lay into them to get them to wakeup and play some def.  because they don’t seem to understand that their effort isnt good enough right now

Why are we playing like its preseason?

And, is it me, or we are getting fouled bad and no calls. Brown to the paint and huge bump, jump ball. Tatum on elbow, zip…

And please tell Al to stop channeling Marcus….

This is going to go down as the worst playoff loss ever for this team. Absolutely no chance with this slop
Disagree. JT heroics at the end will pull it out.

This team truly has a homecourt disadvantage syndrome  :P

Al Horford has already taken six threes and we're only halfway through the second quarter. Clearly the strategy is sag off Horford, shut down the paint, and make him hit threes.

Its probably their bets defensive strategy since he's the least dangerous shooter out their most of the time. We'll see if he can hit enough to make them pay. If he hist 1 out of 3 thats a good trade off for Clevland.

Pretty soon Cleveland is going to be up 10 with the Celtics missing shots which will cripple the defense.

This team is just a bunch of head cases.

How are you losing at home to a team missing their three best players? Why does this keep happening

My God, Joe, get Tatum back in, you fool.

And, Al, do you think there's maybe a reason you're getting so open? Stop shooting every time you're open with your sub-20% shooting.

Hate seeing Al this bad, but he's been soooo bad.
Tatum rotting on the bench is crazy. Joe is sooooo bad. Can we can him and just promote Cassel to head coach?

Interesting but this is the first game all year I’m not getting upset at all. Not sure why. I think it’s because if they don’t crush this team, there’s really nothing there.
I still believe they win this game by 20 plus
