Celtics (2-2) at Bucks (3-1) Game #5 10/25/17

[Snakehead]

Yeah, the bucks are a really bad matchup for us.  They are long, fast and we don't really have anyone who can consistently stay with the greek freak.  You try to double Giannis and you get the other guys from the bucks hitting 3s.  They are utilizing the IT clev cavs defense right now on Kyrie.  Blitz doubling him, daring other guys to beat them.  Right now no one is stepping up.

They're good, but they're looking better than they are because we can't hit any threes, besides Kyrie.  If Brown hit some of those shots it'd be a different game.  And it'd help if we had more shooting.  They are long so you have to make them play you to three and we aren not.

much as i like kyrie on offense, that was way too much hero ball at the end. 

Really?  he is the only one doing anything.  He passes the ball off when he gets doubled or tripled and no one can help him out.  Not the person to blame.

Exactly, the guy getting the ball out of the Kyrie doubles needs to take the ball to the rim, or at least make someone else rotate, and look for the open man.

Their length is elite and causes us problems.

yeah Brown hitting some shots would help, or Smart, or Rozier, or Tatum...we just aren't playing smart basketball right now.

you ain't kidding brother...sheesh

[Neurotic Guy]

Looking forward to seeing how Brown responds to a rough shooting half.

[Big333223]

Those last two possessions were painful. Terrible execution. No poise. Hopefully that's the type of thing that gets smoothed out with experience.

Miracle we're down by one as poorly as we've shot.  This is where we miss Gordon but the kids gotta step up

[SCeltic34]

Need our bench players to play better.  They were all terrible with exception to Baynes, who gave us great minutes.

Yeah I agree, we are lucky to be this close.  Bucks missed a lot of easy looks.  We need to ramp up the defense in the 2nd half, and crank up the offense execution.

[Who]

That Jabari Bird guy is a shooter, right?

Play him. We need someone who can knock down some jump-shots.

Larkin is too small and is a poor matchup defensively against everyone on the Bucks.

The rest of the C's are struggling. Give Bird a shot.

[Ogaju]

Horford is a player....

[cltc5]

Could we see Reggie propose to Gianni's after the game?

[Ogaju]

Reggie Miler is so annoying.

[jpotter33]

Omg is there a volume lower than mute for Reggie?
