Are we really playing a lineup with three backup PGs?

Larkin / Rozier / Smart?

Stevens is as culpable as his players tonight.

Please get this group out of there!  And, Al shoot the [dang] ball in rhythm.  I'm having flashbacks to Olynck from last year with all of the passiveness.

Stevens you need the starters in the game not Larkin, Smart and Rozier who have been awful. Just a terribly coached game.

When Brad's plan gets shut down, his ability to adjust on the fly is close to nonexistent.

Are you talking about Brad Stevens?
No, Brad Pitt.
you are aware this team has five comebacks of fifteen+ in this win streak alone? right?

Of course the worst team in the league record-wise would end the best team in the league's streak. Of course. Ugh.

That's three third-string guards for you.

Half a kingdom for a guard that can actually play at the deadline...

It's called blow a 15 point lead and go down by double digits lineup.  Pretty effective so fsr ???

Larkin again - why?

And, yeah, this is not Rozier's night either.

There is absolutely not flow to the offense and the defense just doesn't seem to care. Funny that we are going to be that top tier team that thought they had it in the bag after the 1st quarter and just stopped playing. That is just not how this team plays.
