Knicks (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Round 2 Game 1 5/5/25

I really just don't understand why we're not executing.  We found what works and completely stopped doing it.  We have zero free throw attempts so far this half.  We're letting this weak Knicks defense off the hook with lazy ass 3's and we're not defending well at all, especially in transition.

It's called bad coaching.

If we lose this game I will blame Joe and his stupid game strategy, including Hauser's playing time.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, WHITE?! Why are you chucking that as soon as you touch it??

That is on Joe and his awful Mazzulla Ball philosophy. That's atrocious offense that Joe has all along encouraged.

DRIVE TO THE HOOP

Careless from Tatum to turn the ball over

Great defensive play from Al and we turned it into points at the other end

That?s what we need to do just tighten up on defense and not let them have easy shots and easy

[jpotter33]

The problem is that Jrue three is only going to mask the issue and continue to encourage this non-sense offense.

[tenn_smoothie]

So Porzingis is sick, but not injured ?

That would at least explain his struggles in the 1st half.

[Phantom255x]

It was 75-55 not long ago...

[angryguy77]

Needed that.

still pathetic to allow this Knicks team to go on a run like this.

Double TP's. Exactly Correct.

[SCeltic34]

Joe looks clueless there on the sideline.  Like he's baffled how this lead evaporated.  Meanwhile any half knowledgeable observer can easily see how bad our offense is.

The thing is if the C's make even some of these wide open 3's its a different story.  But just keep doing what's not working.

[jambr380]

We?ve missed 35 3s so far. Just a horrendous night. Usually teams that shoot a low percentage at least won?t take a ton of them

[blink]

JT / JB this is on you.  DON't settle for 3s.  Attack Brunson in the switch.  Drive and kick and move their def.
