Why are the starters still in the game ?

Bench starters

[SparzWizard]

The Celtics starters can't hit the side of a barn. Meanwhile, Dallas can't seem to miss. Reminds me games 2 against Miami and Cleveland.

If I'm Joe, I bench the starters and Jedi mind trick Kidd to do the same. It's possible our bench can cut into the lead, and if the starters do come back, the roles can be reversed.

Just give Jordan Walsh some playing time. It'll be his first NBA Finals on the court.

To be fair this has been the wosrt officiating ive possibly ever seen.

Tatum and brown both being hit on the arm and in the face on jumpshots on sequential plays with no calls...meanwhile Mavs are getting calls if the Celtics so much as look at them. 

The ft disparity surely must be something like 20-5 right now.

ask joie the big dummy

[jambr380]

I know he just hit a couple of shots, but I can't believe how bad Jrue Holiday has been. There are ghosts out there slapping the ball away from him.

[Rhyso]

That's a foul against Luka, ref's are terrified to call anything

This isn?t on Joe, guys lol Joe can?t rebound for the team. He can?t chase down loose balls. He can?t sprint back on defense. He can?t stop someone from letting it fly from deep early in the shot clock.

Man?s been burning through his timeouts

Q can rebound for the team if you put him out there.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooof

Right?
Q shouldn?t sniff a court in the nba finals and I have no understanding of the fans who are constantly yammering for him.

boston has quit and checked out

bench all starters

who cares anymorfe joe blow u big dummy

Agreed. Put Q in for rebounding and shot blocking. put Svi in for shooting. Put Springer in for D!

[celticinorlando]

Boston has been terrible but man Scott Foster did his job tonight from the jump.

So Joe can watch Jayson hurt his ankle and not call a timeout until 3 possessions later while he's noticeably limping SMH

[tenn_smoothie]

OK, out now, good idea Joe.

[SparzWizard]

Next game we're probably gonna have a combination of Tony Brothers and Zach Zarba. What a double nightmare.

Cause we have no one in the paint that can rebound or block shots. It can't hurt!
