What is the point of double bigs if you're being outrebounded?

None... They also can't make layups either.

Making 3s but missing layups...makes no sense.

Can we run some plays?

Huh ?  The Celtics don't have any plays, just standing positions while one player dribbles around until the ball goes off his foot.

Just shoot the dang open shots, guys. You're hesitating  and second guessing yourself, leading to that awful Horford take to beat the shot clock.

Not sure why anyone is surprised, this is our scheduled every other bad game after the Cleveland win.
Celts do not play well two games in a row this season.

Yes - continue to play double big and give up rebound after rebound. Makes total sense.

Joe's fascination with the double big lineups is infuriating. Hate it.

I know Porzingis and Jaylen usually set the tone in the 1st, but these slow starts from JT are getting annoying. So is the idea that we just hope JT gets hot every 2nd half??

Good thing we dumped Springer for nothing. Oh, no we paid to dump him...We could use someone that takes pride in D right about now.

Refuse to watch this lack of interest - time for an ION TV Chicago PD break.
This team needs Sgt. Voight as head coach.
