  • Yup
The entry passes have been so awful the last few games.  Lazy or just plain bad passes.  Really basically happy with everything but that.
Yup

Why we don’t pound it in the post to Jrue over and over is beyond me. Our coach is awful and will be the downfall of this team

This slow horrible stand around offense is sickening to watch. Joes incapable of drawing sets or going to things that are working.

Jaylen. Missed free throws and inexplicably turnovers under 5 minutes to play

 Brown looks checked out

No effort to get Tatum involved

This is last year vs Heat all over again.

What a sorry performance in this quarter.
They’re getting outplayed. Pacers are a lot better than media gives them credit for.

we need to play def for the whole shot clock, giving up too many easy shots, off boards, get freaking tough on def.  got to win it at that end.

Terrible effort and decision making right now. This is where we could use a real coach to get their heads out of their backsides

They continue to be the dumbest team I've ever seen.

You can't overcome bad coaching and bad to's.
agreed we look cooked

Falling to pieces

Yup….biggest front runners I’ve ever seen…I’d be stunned if they win this game

Here is what happened in this game: Horford was fresh for the first five minutes. He’s been gassed ever since and the bench didn’t show up.

Something about this team is just….off. And I’m confused and angry because I don’t even have Marcus Smart to blame anymore.

I know what it is - it's 6'2", has a prickly attitude, loves ju jitsu, and looks like a meerkat.

Okay, that was hilarious 😂 might have to call Joe “Meerkat Manor” now
He looks like an Ostrich

Well, 4:33 left, down 4. If the C's really are that team, they should come back and win this.

But idk at this point, it's just a tired story. Same old. Not good in the clutch. Prove me wrong

Just can’t trust this team. I’m not going to be surprised if this ECF goes exactly like last year

Pacers have 34 assists. Celtics only have 23… Need to do a better job passing the ball.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.
