Atlanta Hawks (21-19) at Boston Celtics (29-12) Game #42 1/18/25

[SCeltic34]

15 for 52 from 3.  Good job.  Good effort.

[celticinorlando]

This game was lost with the 15 point 2nd quarter

[mef730]

Why are they so desperate to have Tatum take these end of quarter 3s??

They figured that Tatum would be wide open, since nobody would be dumb enough to go back to him for the ATO after he blew it at the end of regulation.

I am just about done with this team. They are lazy. They are stupid. Play with no heart and no pride.

Stay out west and never come back losers.

Thought they played with plenty of heart and pride?they just aren?t great and not everything is going there way this season?not surprised

[celticinorlando]

It is going to be a quick exit in the playoffs. This team got their title and simply doesn't have the balls to win another one.

Tatum - 7-21
Brown - 9 - 27
White - 7- 20

PP - 7-12
Luke - 7-9
Jrue - 3-8

Guess who took all the shots in OT and late in the fourth? Obviously the top 3. Disgusting. This team has a major discipline and accountability problem, and it starts at the top with our weak leadership who is simply incapable of holding these players accountable.

Screw 2023 - this is looking more and more like Brad's last year where the locker room was clearly lost and no longer responding to coaching and just playing low intensity, lazy basketball.

PP almost won us this game but then Joe went away from him. Brown and Tatum 16-48. PP 4-8 from 3 but then they went away from him... The Celtics just become so predictable... Tatum/Brown hero ball is back big time.

For most of the first half they played with no heart or effort. They are lazy and have no push back when things get tough

Certainly not this year? maybe next?.they seem to fluctuate year to year even while still competitive you can clearly tell when there?s something off

[Indocelts]

The Jays are not the alphas of this team. Absolutely not.
They have to accept it and defer to the real alphas when needed.
And Tatum is absolutely no clutch. He's broken on that area.

[celticinorlando]

No idea why Queta was in the game in OT. He was ass.

Ignoring PP who was the only guy that was getting it done so JT and JB could take turns playing hero ball was just inexcusable.

Time to go out west and lose some more.

They?re simply not that good right now and not everything is going their way like it did last season and Jayson Tatum still hasn?t taken that mvp leap like they desperately needed

[smicker16]

Brutal loss. This is a problem from the top down and see now way they turn things around until they clean house entirely. Maybe Wyc should even sell the team.

[jpotter33]

15 for 52 from 3.  Good job.  Good effort.

Joe in the presser (probably): "The process looked good. Some nights they just don't go in, and unfortunately that's been the past six weeks for us. Eventually they'll go in, or we'll die trying." Or some other crazy non-sense like that.

They don't play hard and act entitled. Alternating wins and losses. Thinking they can just make the playoffs and flip a switch is not something that you should count on.
