Celtics (54-25) at Knicks (51-28) Game #80 4/9/26

[Silas]

PP is having a good game....tough in the paint.

[Indocelts]

Just like Brown's bad habit of forcing his drives into traffic, Tatum would be so much better if he would cut out the contested, step-back 3's ...... especially early in the shot clock. I'll never understand why bad habits like those continue. They are obvious to everyone.

I like that Payton didn't pass the rebound back to Tatum after his another long contested 3, instead he drove and made a short jumper.

KAT isn't that good or effective defensively. The mismatch is there, need to attack him and Brunson on defense constantly

It's what we should have done in the playoffs last year.  We didn't exploit neither KAT nor Brunson enough.

Jt been  jittery? Just turned it on.

[Silas]

Vooch with 3 minutes of a nothing burger and a -2.

Yeah and that close to the quarter was all too familiar. C's go on a run and build some momentum, only to give up a 12-5 run to close

Man the more I watch Vooch try and be impactful to winning the basketball, the more I understand why Chicago was sub mediocre

[SCeltic34]

I mean, I don't understand why we're not using Vuc offensively.  He's definitely not out there for defense.

[ozgod]

Robinson has scored at the rim twice since Vuc came on

[Indocelts]

Hauser is 38.7% from 3s this season, the only season he shots below 40%.

[angryguy77]

We look lost offensively

[Indocelts]

Give me Luka and take Vuc out.

[A Future of Stevens]

Vooch is a slow footed center stuck in an old school undersized pfs body that doesn't have length.

[ozgod]

Vooch with 3 minutes of a nothing burger and a -2.

-9 already it?s not all him, but their flow is definitely been disrupted. Also, Robinson is playing much better than KAT.
