Celtics (2-0) at Magic (0-2) Round 1 Game 3 4/25/25

[Who]

Great strength by Pritchard to go body to body with Banchero defensively.

2 bad shots by Tatum, stop forcing it

[tenn_smoothie]

Tatum forcing awful shots and crying to the refs. I really hate his game at times.

[Phantom255x]

Miraculous we're only down 3 right now

[SCeltic34]

Terrible offense.  Too predictable.

[tenn_smoothie]

Joe looking bewildered as our offense grinds to a halt.

[Indocelts]

Need to have the ball in PP's hand. This offense looks timid.

[Phantom255x]

GRAB A REBOUND

[Who]

Orlando's defense SHOULD BE ABLE to do this to Boston's offense. Boston relies on a lot of one-on-one and forcing help from it. Orlando is one of the best suited teams in the league at staying in one-on-one and limiting the help.

Once the help is limited, that ends up with a lot of bad contested shots out of iso. That is the case with BOS all season. And last season.

Orlando are one of the best teams in the league at forcing BOS to play their worst brand of offense.

----------------------

BOS matchup hunt on offense and create ball movement from attacking weak defenders. Orlando have well rounded highly switchable defenders who can stay one-on-one. Limiting help. Limiting BOS ball movement.

More about Orlando's defense than BOS's decision making.

Idk what's crazy. That we only scored 11 the ENTIRE quarter... or that we're only down 3

[Billz401]

Garbage offense right now. They hold the ball way too much

[radiohead]

I?s like to see Q get some of Luke?s mins. Luke is just being pushed around by Orlando?s bigs.

[Celtic Fan Forever]

We should be down 15, amazing we?re only down 3. Offense needs to get back on track and stop being so predictable

[liam]

This rough... We miss Jrue big time...
