Anybody else missing IT this half?

I thought we had all agreed that the team is infinitely better without him?

Nope. His individual offense is helpful at times, but his presence would only exacerbate the lack of ball movement we have right now, which is no coincidence that's when our offense went downhill.

You keep saying that while this team starts to get smashed because nobody can score.

Right now, Toronto is shooting lights out. Celtics are ice cold.

Yet people support the idea of trading our best scorer..

One thing we have going for us is the foul count. Close to the limit already, though, it won't matter and we'll just chuck threes.

Live ball turnovers (and TOs in general) have been what killed us tonight.

All of Bradley's 4 TO's were live, I believe. Horford has 4 TO's, too, and some of them were live. Smart, KO, and Rozier all have 2 each.

Seems like the kind of thing IT, as the team's regular lead ballhandler, could've helped.

Let's be honest. They're losing tonight at home because they're soft

[Kuberski33]

marcus is a meaner dennis johnson but not as offensively refined.

No comparison with their offensive games

The team is getting smashed because we're turning over the ball, not hitting shots, and not defending crap right now. Which one of those will IT help with?

Too reliant on the 3 - too soft up front.

Hitting shots.

As for defense.. who is playing good defense right now anyways?

Gosh Zeller can you wake up on the boards please

Well that's what you get when Ainge is content with Zeller and Amir as opposed to getting bigs who can score/rebound.

Id rather Marcus than Terry atm.

Watching Zeller is just painful.

Big Al looking like Robert Parish with the spin there.  Totally different games now though.   Big Al is more versatile and doesn't play down low enough himself.

I need me some 4th quarter Jaylen!
