This is depressing

It's hilarious the NBA lets players get away with the travel Brown has had twice in tonight's game.

This team just doesn’t have what it takes. Just play entirely to lackidasical

beyond pizzed right now

[jpotter33]

God I hate the step-through move. That should be a walk. Brown has used it twice tonight to our advantage, but I think that's just poor fundamentals.

I don't think it's legal in any other level of basketball other than the NBA, right?

Lets get back to celtics basketball this second half. Tough defense and good ball movement on offense!

Hate to break it to you, but current Celtics basketball does not include good ball movement.
We win when we shoot well off bad offense, that's usually it.

Again, the pacers 3s are wide open, not contested.

We’ve seen this movie before in every series

i knoiw we love to blame JT and JB but some of this has to fall on the coach for not having them ready NOR be able to motivate them

i used to say the same about brad on the back end. BE DEMANDING

[Larry for 3]

Al Horford is the issue. He’s in every pick and roll and they get a great shot every time.

[celticinorlando]

The Celtics are great if they make shots. If they don’t they refuse to get the game back defensively.

Offense just deteriorates so does the defense

Looked like a travel to me.

no contest? hello games 2!

Looking like the typical game the Celtics lose

No, we’re still gonna win. It’s just gonna be ugly.

When is this defense going to lock in?? Kornett is lost out there trying to help on defense, if our guards get beat off the dribble that's on them he should not be helping off of Turner

It's like these guys enjoy hardship and suffering. They are a bunch of masochists. We find ways to lose plays and surrender our advantages.Then when things start looking grim we heroically storm back.

It's incredible

Game flipped when Kornet came in up 10.
From that point on it has gone down hill
